"The evidence presented for this conviction clearly demonstrates that it is irresponsible to sell animals to those who are not old enough to look after them.

No, 1: a goldfish is not an animal. It's a FISH.

No.2: If a 14 year old in England isn't considered old enough to take care of a goldfish, what does that say for England.

Truly, the world has gone mad...braindead.

At our local YMCA by the tea and coffee stand there’s a big sign saying “WARNING: not for use for people 16 years old or younger!” all official-like.

I asked the clerk why young teenagers weren’t allowed to get tea, hot chocolate or coffee for themselves and she replied “We’re afraid they’re going to burn themselves.”

Wow! In some states 14 year olds can drive farm machinery, run chainsaws and shoot rifles. And in all states I assume they can take hot showers, wash their hands in hot water and cook eggs for themselves on hot stoves, but in Oregon they can’t be trusted to pour a cup of hot water for making tea!

A fish is not an animal? You are one hell of a debater.
