Thank God- this headline ( link ) has stayed in my mind since Katrina:

"An Awful Howling" -- animals dying in New Orleans

[Tall_Texan]

I'd support some of the laws against animal cruelty or sport killing but I don't want to see a dime spent saving animals that should be spent on saving humans. Fluffy and Fido are luxuries when there's danger and every minute counts.

Could you imagine if the NYPD and NYFD were told they had to rescue pets while trying to get people out of the WTC during 9-11? Not one of those brave firefighters and policemen are worth dying over a dog or a cat.

Sorry, pet lovers, but that's just how I feel and no amount of posting cute photos will change it.

And before I get called "heartless" (which is guaranteed on these threads), I do have my own pet who I love and take care of very well but, if my place was on fire, I wouldn't expect a fireman to risk their life trying to get my pet out. Either I do it myself or it doesn't get done.

Arizona and Washington outlawed bestiality, or sexual relations between a human and an animal, bringing to 32 the number of states in which the act is a crime.

That's the DUmmies' weekend ruined, in any case.
