Schwarzenegger Wants Strays Killed Faster...

[Hell Hath No Fury]

In case you missed the rmpalmer posting in LBN, here is the Groper's latest outrage:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/worldlatest/story/0,1280,-4244475,00.html

"Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (news - web sites) wants to repeal a state law that requires animal shelters to hold stray dogs and cats for up to six days before killing them.

Instead, there would be a three-day requirement for strays. Other animals, including birds, hamsters, potbellied pigs, rabbits, snakes and turtles, could be killed immediately.

Schwarzenegger has told the state Legislature that the changes could save local governments that operate shelters up to $14 million.

An estimated 600,000 dogs and cats are put to death each year in California, including 34,000 in Los Angeles alone."


Now, I don't know about you, but this just doesn't fly with me. Make a call today!

9. Zee Final Solution

Vhat do you expact? It is the final solution to the budget crisis you know. I am sure someone said something along these lines which is why he recanted the position the next day. Thank god for what republicans call flip-flops, and as democrats call being reasonably able to change ones mind from an absurd position.

10. Could this be a diversion?

I get that he doesn't value any life that isn't male and rich but this just seems like a trick to keep something else out of the line of sight - F911 perhaps?

12. Has he truly backed off on this (as per earlier post)?

Thanks for the alert, Hell. :hi:
