NJ Seatbelt Law now applies to animals

New Fines In Place For Cats And Dogs That Don’t Buckle Up In New Jersey « CBS Philly

This shit has got to stop.

 

Wat to go Chris Christie !

 

This law is more about REVENUE GENERATION more than protecting the animals or people.

 

Of course it is.

But we will be seeing more and more of this in the near future. The cell phone fine just doubled.

This shit has got to stop.

I have a dream that one day we will elect a leader who will dedicate him/herself to REPEALING laws, instead of making them. (I know, Keep dreamin')

 

I live in NJ and I have always secured my pet to a dog crate bungied to my roof rack

 

Ain't it grand conservatives keep electing people dedicated to this sort of stuff?

 

NJ has a Dem legislature. But don't let the facts get in the way.

This is not a partisan issue. As editec noted, this is a money issue. Very few politicians on either side of the aisle want to raise taxes (ex. on the "rich" and "evil corporations".) So we will find ourselves with all kinds of new fines, fees, mandates, and other "hidden taxes" needed to feed the beast.

I brought this issue up at work today and no one had even heard about it. Those sneaky bastards tried to keep this hush hush. Thank goodness for Drudge.

 

I so agree. Take all those asshole politicians who want to enact laws taking away a woman's right to have an abortion if she so chooses. Or those jerks who want to enact laws limiting the amount of money an injured plaintiff can recover from a negligent doctor. Or those intolerant pricks who want enact laws making same sex marriage illegal.

Laws, laws, laws . . . who needs 'em?
