Failure of our liberal unconstitutional big government

[BoycottTheday]

I hate the idea of the police state but it was started when Reagan intensified the drug war

umm, i dont remember the 70's being a drug friendly decade, nor the 60;s...

Butt, it is ironic that your Oman is using the drug war and the threat of gun violence to go after conservatives and the 2nd...the conservatives so wanted the war on drugs, now its come back to haunt them, freedom isnt free people...Butt

Its the same reason liberals shouldnt be so smug today, for future leaders will use the same unconstitutional mandates against liberalism.

Y'all just cant seem to see that far.

Defying an officer right in front of your children is not doing the right thing

Except there was no "officer" LiesMatter. You can work as hard as you want to twist this story, the facts are there for all to see. They were not stopped by an "officer" nor where they instructed that they could not "transport" the bird back home. Sorry LiesMatter.

11-Yr-Old Girl Saves Baby Bird From Cat, Mom Gets $535 Fine « The Daley Gator

This is comedy GOLD!!

11-Yr-Old Girl Saves Baby Bird From Cat, Mom Gets $535 Fine:

Today’s shining example of how liberals have created a government that is failing the American people comes from Fredericksburg, VA - where a young girl prevented the family cat from pouncing on a lost baby woodpecker and her mom ended up with a $535 ticket (and faces the possibility of jail time) for violating the "Federal Migratory Bird Act".

Despite the fact that 11-year-old Skylar Capo actually saved the tiny lost woodpecker from a violent death, and then successfully released the bird back into the wild, a Virginia State Trooper was still dispatched to the Capo home where Skylar’s mom was slapped with the $535 ticket.

Why? It all has to do with the "Migratory Bird Treaty Act":

For the 311 million (or so) Americans who are probably not familiar with the restrictions of this Federal regulation, it states the following:

The Migratory Bird Treaty Act makes it illegal for anyone to take, possess, import, export, transport, sell, purchase, barter, or offer for sale, purchase, or barter, any migratory bird, or the parts, nests, or eggs of such a bird except under the terms of a valid permit issued pursuant to Federal regulations.

There are so many failures in this liberal-created, over-regulated, big government story it's tough to decide where to begin. For one, the child is 11 years old. Everyone knows that a child (unless otherwise deemed in specific cases) cannot enter into a legal agreement and cannot be held accountable to US laws (it's why juviniles are released from detention centers when they turn 18 even when they committed a murder). Failure #1. Second, the child never sold, transported, possessed, imported, exported, or sold this bird. She simply saved it from a cat and then released it into the wild. Failure #2. Third, if the law is there to "protect" the animal and the girl doesn't intervene, the animal dies from the cat. She saved the animal, and is punished by a law designed to save the animal. Failure #3. The news organization tried to contact the government about this issue, and they government will not take their calls or respond. So much for being held accountable by the people, uh? Failure #4. With the 22 billion laws (thanks to the fascist Dumbocrats who want to control everything and everyone), some of which are exceptionally obscure while others are vague, how exactly is this 11 year old and her mom expected to be intimately familiar with the "Migratory Bird Treaty Act"? This question is particularly critical when you consider that Dumbocrats believe bills should be quickly passed before any one gets a chance to read the bill and find out what's in it (ahem dumbest twat on the earth - Nancy Pelosi). Failure #5.

To all idiot liberal Dumbocrats, I sarcastically say thank you for creating this over-regulated, unconstitutional goverment that doesn't even properly respond to inquiries by the people and which will soon be $16 trillion in debt thanks to the waste and spending of you greedy, lazy liberals. The Dumbocrats under Bill Clinton gutted defense half a trillion dollars over 8 years and neglected national security, which lead to the 9/11 attacks just 8 months after the lost the office, but you're all over an 11 year old girl for saving a bird from a cat in her backyard.

I guess it only makes sense though - the greedy Dumbocrats are all about taking money from the people. If they can find a way to fine an 11 year old $500+, they will do it.

I knew this kind of thing would start happening if the people of Virginia elected that rightwing tool Bob McDonald governor.

Disgraceful.

Mother fined $535 after daughter, Skylar Capo, 11, saves endangered woodpecker from hungry cat


An officer TOLD them it was illegal to transport the bird and they then got back in the car and transported it right in front of him.

I think its more about defying an officer instead of punishing them for helping the bird.

Then why didn't the "officer" stop them right then and there? You Dumbocrats twist everything to fit the agenda, and your interpretation simply isn't the truth. They were stopped by a woman from the Department of Fish and Wildlife, not an "officer". And the woman did not tell them to release the bird at that moment, and then the family "defied" them as your bullshit interpretation states. She told them they should not have the bird, they went home and released as they had planned all along.

Now come LiesMatter, give us more propaganda bullshit to justify your fascist, big goverment, control the people agenda.

LIES, I posted the FACTS you somehow didnt even know about the case.


Now you pretend fiurther information about the case amounts to spin?


The woman was informed of the law by a duly appointed officer who is charged with inforcing our laws.


She then disobeyed the law.

the officer then likely took the plate number of her car and had the proper laws applied to the womans crime.


Its her fault for breaking a law she was informed of by an officer.

The fact you left out was they released the bird and reported the incident themselves. Two weeks later the liberal tax man was at the door.

the 55 mph national speed limit put into effect by Nixon in 1973?

And he started the EPA and OSHA

and liberals still hate his guts

what can we learn from this?

 

[Truthmatters]

No you silly man the release of the bird has nothing to do with the ticket.

Y'all just cant seem to see that far.

Nixon actually started the drug war and had NATO members sign a treaty on the illegalization of drugs and their use. Dems and GOP members have supported it ever since. There are some presidents that have intesified the war with harsher sentences for the crime. Reagan was such a man. I did not like Clinton and his goal of a million man police force. The feds subsidised the cops to the point that they are a large receiver of welfare to operate cost free to the states. It is unecessary. It is a failed policy which has lasted 40 years to long.

The feds attempt to protect certain species is necessary to ensure they have protection against the willfull destruction of that species by humans.

And those are not the reasons the left didnt like Nixon.


I didnt like him because he follwed that well worn path of cheating in elections.

Do you remember why he had to leave office?

Many people hated Nixon because of his actions, his lying and his paranoia. He proved that he was a guy willing to do anything to get into the limelight after the Alger Hiss incident.

I hate the idea of the police state but it was started when Reagan intensified the drug war to save us from ourselves. When Carter was president and you were caught drinking and driving, the cops made you pour out the booze and followed you home, not today, there is a huge industry developed to punish your sins against yourself.

I can't believe you just said that. Clearly you have some type of addiction problem. Those are the only fools who actually cry that drugs are illegal. Do you have any idea how many people are killed each year from drunk drivers? How does "police following you home" stop the drunk driver from crossing over the lines and killing someone in a head on collision?

Some laws are necessary. Like laws against drugs and drunk driving. Fining an 11 year old girl for saving a bird citing a law intended to save birds is not necessary.

the girl was not fined.

 

[Truthmatters]

How sad that Nixon was likely the best republican president we have had in 40 years and he was so corrupt he had to leave office.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Comical.

Not for the family who was trying to help the bird. This is your statist government at work and you applaud it.

 

[editec]

A shining example of bureaucratic stupidity in action.

Is it liberalism?

Well it is if you define whatever you think is bad or stupid as liberalism, I suppose.

But foisting that definition on the world as meaningful is rather pointless.

And its unconsitutional, no one has the right to tell me what to put in my body as long as i dont bother them, and

if i bother them arrest me for bothering them, the drugs are an excuse and a medical issue.

The war on drugs started long before Nixon, any attempt by nixon to be in the middle dint do anyone any favours. Rhinos try to please liberals, never works, thats why they should get the boot.

In reality it should be called the War on Blacks, because for the longest time the police would let a white kid go, while arresting the black kid, ruining whos life forever? And saving the other?

No wonder the hood is such a mess after thats been going on for so long.

And the suburbs arnt any better, bunch of drug addled liberals never accountable, oh my kid has ADD, give him speed please Mr. Educator, oh boy.

You people are doomed, might as well just be ready for your next economic system that rules your everyday life:



USA past- Capitalism

USA present- Socialism

exU SA's future- Darwinism

 

[Truthmatters]

you are confused on the facts

 

[Moonglow]

the court I am sure will rectfy the problem, and if not appeal it. But if you want trouble with da law, do somthing wrong in front of them and see what happens.
Here is a real nut kicker story.

MARIETTA, Ga. - A Georgia woman received a year of probation on Tuesday in the jaywalking death of her 4-year-old son, but the judge also made the unusual move of offering her a chance to clear her name at a new trial. The mother of two surviving children says she's satisfied with the outcome of the hearing.

Raquel Nelson was convicted by a jury this month of vehicular homicide for crossing a busy street outside the crosswalk with her children in April of 2010. She could have received as many as three years in prison -- which would have been a much longer sentence than the one for the hit-and-run driver who struck the boy. There has been outcry over Nelson's charges and conviction.

They "saved" the bird from their OWN cat. Perhaps if they didn't let the cat out in the first place..
