Um, ditto that.

“Homosexual propoganda,” as in the notion that everyone is entitled to the same civil rights?

Asshat.

Don’t let the door hit you in the behind on the way out.

I just wanted to say that I am no longer a member of the 3000 club due to the fact that it is now pushing homosexual propaganda in addition to the legalization of ferrets. Whether or not I agree or disagree with gay rights is irrelevant, I joined the 3000 club for ferrets, not gays! I still support the legalization of ferrets but I no longer support the 3000 club for this reason.

The vet clinic didn’t have anything to do with it. San Diego Animal Control under the authority of Mary K Gagliardo showed up to confiscate Rocky.

Please publish the name of this vet office. so we can steer clear of it. We should have a list somewhere list places that we should under no circumstances take our beloved ferrets,

Pat’s story has the ring of the sweet truths we all can identify with in some way or another. I like his take.

“rhinoceros beetle” LOL

I dunno — seems that in California, ferret owners have to stay deeper in the closet than any (non-Republican-politician) gay citizen.

And of course, Rudy Guliani is okay with gays, but has a rhinoceros beetle up his butt about ferrets.

But “seized from the vet and ‘euthanized’” is maybe an appropriate stand-in for the bygone days of “committed to a mental institution” or the current “held captive by Christian ‘deprogrammers’ hired by my parents.”

When I lived in Massachusetts, pet ferrets were illegal. (They are now permitted under rather ridiculous conditions that cater to the ferret-millers.)

But is it not strange, that the two states in which ferrets have been illegal are the same ones that are awkwardly spearheading same-sex marriage?
