Re: [APD] Aquatic-Plants Digest, Vol 76, Issue 11
I am not talking about a government agency, but private organizations,
such as PETA, ASPCA, etc. They have no legal authority, only financial
reserves to sue you and/or pressure local law enforcement into prosecuting
you. They cannot come into a person's property for any reason without
permission, or they are guilty of trespassing. Out here in the west, they
may be shot for it.<<
Actually that is not true. In several states, including in "the west" the
humane society or animal control has either partial or full police powers,
and may obtain a warrant for search, seizure, and arrest. They often have
police with them as a back up. Just because someone has good intentions in
their own warped mind is no excuse for incredible cruelty. Most of these
types of people are horders and live in conditions that are not even
suitable for human life. Every room in the house the floors are caked with
feces and urine. The animals are diseased and suffering to an extent that no
normal person could tolerate. In other cases the animals are kept in wire
cages that barely have enough room for the animal to turn around while the
animal is standing in its own feces and the metal wires dig into the animals
feet.
There is no excuse for any of that. Not even the little old lady with 100
cats.
