Very sad day in El Paso, Texas today. The agenda to amend the animal possession ordinance appears to be about to pass. This will establish the birth of the Animal Gestapo that has the right to enter any home and confiscate (put to death) any puppy or dog that is not microchipped, not registered, or not otherwise in compliance with the ordinance (no more than 5 animals total per house). Crafters of this legislation are the infamous animal rights group "Pets Alive" affiliated with ...of course...the PETA terrorist movement....the same group that ramroded the Austin legislation that outlawed breeding in that city. How can this be happening in the US..obviously not the home of the FREE anymore. I know you are all saying...not here..and not in my town...but they are winning and they WILL get to you in time..maybe 2 years..maybe 5 years..but we are losing. So very sad that most in opposition are afraid to say anything in fear of being targeted by the all enconpasing powers being given to ACO (Animal Control Officers).
