Psst! Hey kid; wanna buy a hamster?

San Francisco wants to ban the sale of all pets (particularly rodents) except for fish due to the irresponsible actions of many people that purchase, then discard pets because they had no clue how they really behave and how much maintenance is required. Once again, they are legislating away basic rights rather than educating citizens to be responsible.
This is bound to fail if they implement it and they will lose tax revenue from the disappearing pets shops.
Lets set up a mega pet store just outside their jurisdiction!

So, what do they have against fish?
I mean, if that is all you can buy then that is all that will be flushed when people get bored or frustrated.

America for sale (again)

Foreign banks are picking the bones of American institutions being shut down by the feds.
Lobbyists and money are apparently flooding Washington in a financial feeding frenzy.

One explanation for their success and the ignorance of lawmakers and bureaucrats is in this quote:
“They’re taking advantage of the fact that they’re not thought of as Wall Street. They’re below the radar screen because nobody’s ever heard of Barclays or Deutsche Bank.”

So, millions of dollars are flowing and our banks will be owned by foreigners after being closed due to the decisions of people affected by the politicians that not only caused this mess, but are now profiting from its effects.

Our Non-Violent Opponent's Curious Comments

Liberals are such peaceful, tolerant, friendly people.
That is why it is so (not) shocking to hear one of their pundits: "We should burn them down. We should go after them with pitchforks, knives, guns, clubs we find, mace – anything, because it’s appalling. You only need to read the story that ProPublica did about the hedge fund Magnetar and what they did or Michael Lewis’ ‘The Big Short’ or these stories about Goldman to realize these guys are corrupt."
