SB 917 - criminalizing public sales



SB 917, the bill that would criminalize someone who would sell or give away kittens or puppies at the local market, was signed into law today by Governor Brown.
Sadly, this means that instead of animals finding homes, more dogs and cats will become homeless, to starve or be hit by a car; or, they might end up in the local shelter where they will add to the death toll. The good Samaritan with a litter of kittens under their porch would end up with a criminal record. Nice, huh?
One would think that a former Attorney General for the state would see this bill for what it is....a mockery of justice.
