So many lessons here....so many levels.

All of them boil down to unintended consequences of government meddling.

It’s an old truism, but you can judge people a lot by the way they treat animals.

Sometimes I'm not so sure the "unintended consequences" are unintended.

Cat in the Kettle

Did you ever think when you eat Chinese,
It ain't pork or chicken but a fat siamese
Yet the food tastes great so you don't complain
But that's not chicken in your chicken chow mein
Seems to me I ordered sweet and sour pork
But Garfield's on my fork
He's purring here on my fork

There's a cat in the kettle at the Peking Moon
The place that I eat every day at noon
They can feed you cat and you'll never know
Once they wrap it up in dough, boy,
They fry it real crisp in dough

Chow Lin asks if I wanted more,
As he was dialling up his buddy at the old pet store
I said not today, I lost my appetite,
There's two cats in my belly and they want to fight
I was sucking on a Rolaids and a Tums or two
When I swear I heard it mew, boy
And that is when I knew

There's a cat in the kettle at the Peking Moon
I think I got to stop eating there at noon
They say that it's beef or fish or pork
But it's purring there on my fork
There's a hair ball on my fork

Someone call PETA!

They're not going to bother because they'll be eaten anyway.

“Terrified cats crammed tightly into cages are hauled off to a meat market in Guangzhou”

I thought that the meat smelled kinda funny at the supermarket this morning. I did notice, however, that it was extremely lean.

One cat lovers' group negotiated the release of 30 pets from one of the compounds

Sounds like a euphemism for "paid a bribe."

Surely Westboro Baptist Church will include this in their protest at the Olympics.

Now they should not be surprised by the rise in rodent born diseases. It may well be the year of the rat in China.
