John, GZ...here in large part is the reason for the insanity as well illustrated by Rush. The liberals have been patient and methodical for over 50 years, taking control of the education system and effectively brainwashing an entire generation.
Washington, DC, Law Forces Exterminators to Capture and Relocate RatsJanuary 16, 2012
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Two stories, they're both weird, especially to lead off an hour with. But I'm gonna switch it up. The attorney general of the state of Virginia is a guy named Ken Cuccinelli, and he's worried. He's really worried. There's a new law in the District of Columbia that governs how pest control operators must handle rats. Now, when you think of pest control operators and rats, like if you have a rat infestation, what do you do? You used to kill them. Not in the District of Columbia. I kid you not. (interruption) No, you don't negotiate. I'm not talking about human rats. No. No. You are to round up entire rodent families and relocate them across the Potomac River into Virginia. The people in the District of Columbia, big on animal rights.
 This is what happens. You go to school, from grade school on you are indoctrinated with this animal rights crap. You grow up, you become a global warmist and all these other liberal things, and finally you get a job in government. And your job in government puts you in charge of animal control. Then you encounter a problem with rats in the district, and as somebody from age five on who's been taught that there's no difference between a rat and a human being, you simply can't bring yourself to eradicate the rats. The rat's just another animal. It's not a problem. You can't kill them, that's not humane. In fact, you come up with a law that says entire rodent families will be relocated.
Now, this is a serious problem here. "Lately, there have been reports of growing rat infestations around the Occupy DC protests at Freedom Plaza and McPherson Square. Cuccinelli said D.C.'s new rat law -- the Wildlife Protection Act of 2010..." Folks, this is what happens. You think this is harmless, all this animal rights stuff and people watching all these Disney movies growing up, the Lion King and, "Oh, no, Rush, harmless stuff, it's good for the children." All these commercials that show a polar bear hugging a guy who drives an electric car, when in truth the polar bear would eat the guy if he got anywhere near his electric car, and then he would destroy the car. But when you educate young skulls full of mush with this pap and they grow up and find themselves in positions of power in government, this is what you get, the wildlife protection act of 2010 in DC.
According to Ken Cuccinelli, the attorney general of Virginia, said, "This law is 'crazier than fiction,' because it requires that rats and other vermin not be killed but captured, preferably in families; no glue or snap traps can be utilized; the rodents must be relocated from where they are captured; and some of these animals may need to be transferred to a 'wildlife rehabilitator' as part of their relocation process. The law does not allow pest control professionals 'to kill the dang rats,' Cuccinelli told CNSNews.com. 'They have to capture them -- then capture them in families.'" Now, how do you do that? Can I just ask, how in the world do you identify a rat family? No, seriously. But this is the law in the District of Columbia.
Okay, go ahead and laugh. The daddy's name Ben, right? Well, this is the law. This is what happens. I guarantee the person in charge of this law, was responsible for this law, I'm sure thinks this is hunky-dory, humane, it's wonderful, doing everything she or he's been taught to do. After you have found the rats and put them with their families, you then have to relocate 'em. And that's what brings us to Virginia. "If you don't relocate them about 25 miles away, according to experts, rodents will find their way back." So you have to relocate them in Virginia in this case, or Maryland. Exactly right.
So Cuccinelli says, "'We have real concerns about this ridiculous law and we've been pretty genial about dealing with D.C. on it,' said Cuccinelli. 'But when you see an article like the "Rats Occupy Occupy DC," it points up the problem that we're going to have in Virginia because of that -- and because D.C's really outrageous treatment of these varmints who, for those who don't remember their history, carried things like bubonic plague. I mean, these are true vermin.' While the law exempts 'commensal rodents' -- varieties of which most people know (or have seen) as common rats or house mice -- the rice rat and deer mouse, which are found in the District, are not defined as commensal and apparently are not exempt from the law. In addition, the new law expands the definition of wildlife and sets the rules for handling it to include raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and other animals that can carry disease, such as rabies. The law applies to trained animal control officers, not to homeowners." |
