But that is not really the point. The point is this: do you want some politician or government agency intruding into your home and private life and telling you what you can or cannot do with your own personal property? If so, then I guess you also wouldn't mind having a breed warden come over to examine your dogs and pedigrees and inform you which of your dogs/bitches can be bred, and to whom and/or how often or how many puppies you can keep. :/ Be careful what you wish for people; you just might get it. We have too much "government" in this country as it is. It escapes me why are some of you begging for more. :( Totally gob smacked, KMC ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
