Animal shelter to NRA and gun restriction foes: No pets for you
NBC News ^ | 6/9/2022 | Corky Siemaszko

If you want to adopt a dog or cat from this Southern California animal shelter, you have to be 25, prove you can provide a pet with a good home — and support gun restrictions.

Membership in the NRA is a deal breaker, said Shelter Hope Pet Shop owner Kim Sill.

“We do not support those who believe that the 2nd amendment gives them the right to buy assault weapons,” Sill wrote on a website for the shelter in Thousand Oaks, California, about 40 miles northwest of Los Angeles. “If your beliefs are not in line with ours, we will not adopt a pet to you.”

Sill added, “If you lie about being a NRA supporter, make no mistake, we will sue you for fraud.”

Sill, in an interview with NBC News, said quite a few donors to her shelter are Republicans and some have threatened to cut off funds if she doesn’t remove the “Where do you stand on gun control?” question that she now requires every potential adoptee to answer during a screening interview.

Will I get a free pet if I get an abortion?

Watch very carefully what they’re doing. They are working very hard to demonize entire categories of individuals. That makes their extermination much easier.

Exactly. This is what Nazi Germany did to the Jews. After a while, most Germans started seeing the Jews as subhuman and so looked the other way when millions of them got shoved into the gas chambers.

I’m NRA with a CCP and have 2 wonderful rescues—both dogs enjoy the life of Reilly and neither ever has to worry about some scum bag ever hurting them again.

"Animal shelter to NRA and gun restriction foes: No pets for you"

........ I honestly don't understand why any of us here should be surprised by this???? Over the past year or so the Corporate world has been notifying their customers about how they are now ESG Compliant. As a result Almost all businesses will be required under the "ESG Protocols" to do this sort of thing. Most have signed on to the ESG Protocols so they can actually stay in business. This is starting to happen all over the world and will increase exponentially with every day.

.... No need to panic .... There is only a need to adapt and realize this is now the New Normal.

As long as they are not a "public convenience" and/or not receiving public funds, they can establish whatever criteria they wish!

No guns, no fags, no meat-eaters, etc.

They are a 501(c)

The Biden admin wouldn't pull their tax exempt status, but I don't see how they could win in court.

What they are saying is they do not believe in the US Constitution. So I recommend they close shop and move to Canada.

NO STANDING to make such ‘rules’.

Lady-—this is a “NUNYA” issue.

IT is NUNYA business how I feel about guns-—and some of those adoptable dogs are HUNTING dogs.

Then, I guess we do not adopt from you but buy purebreds?

Seems a shame that those animals will not find their forever homes but oh well...

It’s absolutely going to happen.
There are ways to survive off-grid.

3 or 4 generations ago it wasn’t a big deal.
