Well that's no surprise to me. People love to feel special and like they are part of an exclusive group. Of course they're the only ones qualified and they are the ones that know what's best.

Your I don't Wright the laws sounds like the cops I'm just doing my job.

No, I just don't operate off feelings and feel good emotion.

Shouldn't need laws to stop folks from being stupid but here we are.

There's this place in Omaha they call a "zoo". They cage up all kinds of wild aminals and make ppl pay to look at them.
Why is that okay?

If one officer had knocked on their door and spoken to them about a minor violation and ways to fix it this would never have been in the news.

The out of proportion response of a big team of officers with a search warrant, seizing and euthanizing the squirrel is the problem. P nut is just a metaphor for the government persecuting law abiding citizens over minor stuff while real criminals are looting, robbing, raping burning down our cities with no consequences.

Peoples emotions are high and this election matters.


United we stand.

That's called an exhibitors license. And each non native requires it's own permit.

Now that I can get on board with. We got law enforcement running around acting just like the "kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies" complaint our founders made against King George.

The green suited ones of my acquaintance for the most part would've handled that with a knock and discussion before even considering the need for a warrant much less the SWAT raid.

We need to seriously curtail the ability of the state's use of force in evidence gathering. Warrants should not be rubber stamp judges but weighed very carefully against the Bill of Rights with the default erring on the side of the accused.

If you’re defending the actions that they made in regards to the seizing and euthanizing the animals, it’s my opinion that you lack the common sense to understand that there are occasions when the letter of the law need not be followed.

This thread is proof, that law enforcement will do what ever their political masters tell them. We will all end up like peanut the squirrel if gun confiscating politicians get their way.

DEC told their employees at the main office they could go home if they did not feel safe. The office received threats from peanut lovers!

The people making threats are nothing to worry about they are all bluster. It's the quiet ones they don't hear from they should be worried about. Since it's just a squirrel I'm assuming bleeding hearts and libs so nothing to worry about.

What is to be mad and concerned about is not the death of the squirrel but the example of Goverment action and its to bad Waco and the Weavers didn't have a social media following. The public is more up set about a darn squirrel. Peanut is just an example of what can happen to all of us His own owner is the dummy that put the squirrel all over social media. Had he not been doing that the squirrel would have died with him of old age. I'm glad he did though maybe it will wake just a few more people up to the threats.

The 2nd is the only think keeping them back.
