How about this one? Michael's lawsuits and Judge Greer's orders were in direct violation of all four provisions of the local animal cruelty laws. There are no exceptions in the law, which protects ANY animal in ANY place. In fact it specifically orders that sick or infirm animals are to be protected. Imagine, every animal is protected from cruelty except a helpless woman named Terri Schiavo.
Pinellas County Animal Control Ordinance
Sec. 14-32. Cruelty to animals.
(a) Whoever impounds or confines any animal in any place and fails to supply the animal during such confinement with a sufficient quantity of good and wholesome food and water shall be in violation of this article.
(b) Whoever keeps any animal in any enclosure without wholesome exercise and change of air shall be in violation of this article.
(c) Whoever abandons to die any animal that is maimed, sick, infirm, or diseased shall be in violation of this article.
(d) A person who unnecessarily overloads, overdrives, tortures, torments, deprives of necessary sustenance or shelter, or unnecessarily or cruelly beats, mutilates, or kills any animal, or causes the same to be done, or carries in or upon any vehicle, or otherwise, any animal in a cruel or inhumane manner, shall be in violation of this article.
So now Terri's an animal?? Come on, that's a weak strawman and you know it.
