    Btw guess which PA political party is putting money before animal lives?

    HARRISBURG — Partisan divides are stymying legislation to boost funding for the Pennsylvania bureau tasked with exposing puppy mills and handling dangerous dogs, potentially endangering the state’s ability to enforce tougher animal cruelty laws.

    The legislature departed for the summer without voting on bills that would have raised dog licensing fees from $6.50 to $10 per year, an increase advocates say is critical to address insufficient staffing and a dire funding shortfall within the state’s Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement. Without a new and permanent stream of revenue, they say, the bureau will soon be unable to carry out its basic functions.

    In an interview this week, state Rep. Dan Moul (R., Adams), who chairs the House committee where one of the bills has languished, said fee increases are politically unpopular. He and other House Republicans fear a public backlash if they were to approve a fee hike — Moul noted that he still receives angry calls from constituents about an unrelated gas tax hike he voted for nearly a decade ago."

Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine seems like the likely frontrunner for FDA authorization in that age group. "Can't guarantee it, you've got to do the clinical trial," Fauci said of his predicted timeline. Kids younger than 5 years old are the only people in the US who still can't get any COVID-19 vaccines. But Dr. Anthony Fauci says they (and their parents) shouldn't have to wait too much longer. "Hopefully within a reasonably short period of time, likely the beginning of next year in 2022, in the first quarter of 2022, it will be available to them," Fauci told Insider, though he quickly acknowledged there's really no way to know that for sure. "Can't guarantee it, you've got to do the clinical trial," he said.

    So, let's summarize. Fauci's agency authorized torturing animals to death, advocates injecting children with a substance that hasn't been rigorously tested (and says he "expects" to be able to shoot up babies with it by springtime), and you see nothing wrong with that?

    You're desperate. Postponing dog licensing fees = animal genocide?

    But don't give a fuck that over 580,000 American's are homeless.
    Including tens of thousands of veterans.

    But Gordon Gekko was right.

    "That's the one thing you have to remember about WASPs: they love animals and hate people."
    You mentioned in another post that there were no threads about the homeless. There have been and sometimes they're hard to find. Mostly those threads are critical and blame the victims for their homelessness. Here are two examples.

    Angry

    A PETA investigation into cruel “sound localization” experiments at the University of Wisconsin–Madison revealed that experimenters drill holes into cats’ skulls, implant electrodes in their brains, and implant steel coils in their eyes.

    The cats are intentionally deafened and then killed.

    At Michigan State University, experimenters cut into cats’ faces, crushed their optic nerves, removed their eyes, and then killed them.

    In auditory studies, cats have their ears cut off and are locked in restraint chairs so that their brain activity can be measured in response to different sounds.

    In stroke experiments, blood flow to the cats’ brains or eyes is blocked, causing a stroke.

    In vision experiments, cats are raised in darkness, have one or both eyes sewn shut, or have their eyes removed.

    At a contract testing laboratory called Professional Laboratory and Research Services (PLRS), where PETA conducted an undercover investigation, cats suffered seizures and bled from the nose and mouth after an experimental chemical was applied to their skin. In spite of this severe reaction, the chemical was administered to the cats a second time the very same day.

    At dog auctions they're sold to the highest bidder. Are you saying labs couldn't be the high bidders, Duke of Deception?
