San Francisco Considering Banning Sale of Pets?!?

On the bright side of government bizarrely and stupidly talking about and considering a ban on pet sales is that it temporarily prevents them from spending more money we do not have.

"Sell a guinea pig, go to jail.

That's the law under consideration by San Francisco's Commission of Animal Control and Welfare. If the commission approves the ordinance at its meeting tonight, San Francisco could soon have what is believed to be the country's first ban on the sale of all pets except fish.

That includes dogs, cats, hamsters, mice, rats, chinchillas, guinea pigs, birds, snakes, lizards and nearly every other critter, or, as the commission calls them, companion animals.
