Florida Democrat wants to ban dogs from sticking their heads out of car windows and require them to be in crates if traveling

A Florida Democrat has submitted legislation that would ban dogs from sticking their heads out of car windows, along with banning dogs from sitting on drivers' laps and requiring all dogs to be in crates if traveling in motor vehicles.

Florida's Senate Minority Leader Lauren Book filed SB 932, the Florida Standard reports, called the Humane Cosmetics Act. The bill's summary states that it bans the "manufacturing, importing for profit, selling, or offering for sale" any cosmetics that were tested on animals, while also banning the declawing of cats.

The bill would also require the state to create a publicly accessible website that lists the names of those convicted of "animal abuse offenses; providing penalties for specified violations, etc."

However, the bill's actual text immediately states that it is "prohibiting a person from taking specified actions relating to the transportation of dogs on public roadways."

The bill prohibits a person from holding a "dog in his or her lap or allow a dog to be in such a position as to interfere with the person’s control over the driving mechanism."

But it is OK to let 10 year-old kids engage in “gender reassignment” with telling their parents.

My German Shepherd would like to chase her to see if she can climb a tree faster than a squirrel.

Tired of the lack of compliance after telling people how to live their lives, Democrats have now expanded the scope of operations to the animal kingdom.

Reached for comment, a spokesdog said, “we’ll look out the damn windows if we want, we have to know where we’re going.”

Democrats-—Blame everything on everyone else, make everything into a crisis and ban everything fun in the “name of safety”.

I wonder if this ‘Democrat’ knows that you can get nice little harnesses/safety seats and arrangements for lots of dogs, now...

I don’t have a big problem with this part of it. FL drivers are already some of the worst ever, and a dog in the lap or face of driver doesn’t help matters. I don’t see the big deal if they’re elsewhere/in another seat of the car though?

How will Debbie Wasserman-Schultz get around? Can she steer or get her feet to the brakes from a crate?
