The La Crosse man who's asked the state to allow hunters to kill stray cats says he's been getting death threats.
Mark Smith told La Crosse police he's gotten angry phone calls and messages at work and at home.
Police reports say one call made while Smith was working at the La Crosse Fire Department suggested it should be "open season on firefighters." Another woman told Smith that if the state Legislature approved his request Smith would be hunted down and killed.
Smith has asked the Wisconsin Conservation Congress to vote on his proposal at an April eleventh meeting. That vote would be advisory. The Legislature would have to consider the proposal before cats could be hunted.
Smith has proposed that any cat not under the owner's direct control or wearing a collar should be considered fair game for hunters with small-game licenses.

Blue state hate. Agreed, on both sides. A pox on both their houses.

It used to be that feral cats could be shot anytime. Has it gone so far that you can't kill them anymore?

Well, now, that's just going too far. Kitty people, get it together. Death threats are not the answer. He should be sent lots of purrs, flood his answering machine with them, stuff like that.

I they shoot it, they should have to eat it.

The lives of cats are obviously more important than innocent babies (unless you're a "baby killing" soldier...then they matter).
