It comes after more than a year of study and findings that aquarium fish are often mass bred under inhumane conditions or stripped from the wild.From the wild? In over 50 years of fishing California waters, I have never caught a goldfish.

Eventually the Peoples Republic of San Francisco is going to ban something that someone there wants to have sex with. Then they’ll decide that government has gone too far.

First kittens, then puppies and hamsters and now goldfish? Don't forget about the attempted ban on foreskin removal!

No. Goldfish are significantly smarter than democrats.

It’s a darn shame such a geographically impressive city has been taken over and destroyed by such utter clowns.

Yep, they can ban goldfish, Happy Meals, and circumcision. But they can’t ban public sex activity at the Folsom Street Fair.

Maybe because they aren’t even remotely “human?”
Of course my tank denizens are typically of a higher intellectual order than the average liberal, so there could be a point here somewhere.

Next they will ban the vendors along Fisherman's Wharf.

This is the nuttiest story I’ve read in a while.
Further proof that liberalism is truly, yes truly, a mental disease.

San Francisco, as well as most of California, is beautiful place being shamelessly wasted.

The dynamic happening in CA is this, in 12 words:
Illegal aliends pouring in, to help themselves.
Liberals - tearing everyone else down.

As someone in the trade I call bullsh*t. I have toured the breeders my company uses. There are also limits to the number that can be collected in the wild. Over collect and you put YOURSELF out of business because the fish are gone.
Guppies and gold fish have been tank bread for YEARS.
Now, if we can pass laws like this about fish, how about allowing liberals to breed?
To: Free ThinkerNY
Goldfish are bait, food for larger pet fish, etc.
‘Nuff said.
