Save your breath and the energy wasted on being offended. You're just giving them a wagon to hitch themselves to.....your beliefs....whether you intend it or not.
They can just sit back and let you support their cause, they can cheer you on, and they can reap the benefits of your efforts....even if you disagree with their practices, because YOUR constitutional rights ARE ALSO THEIRS.

Your paranoia is also showing. I'm affected by every law that you're affected by, why do you think laws would not apply to me?

Unless you have something to back this up, this is nothing but your smoke and mirrors. Just your opinion, nothing more and nothing less and you happen to be clinging to PETA'S coattails by using that as an argument. It's SO messy!

Perhaps among some it would be, but the vast majority of enforcement could easily be done without pitting neighbor against neighbor. All they'll need is the local papers and Google.

If the USRC is legit, they should have no problem proving it - I'm not familiar with their registry, but they have a history to stand on that is verifiable, do they not?

You've got quite a following with this, there's no doubt about it. My concern is what that following consists of. I'm not convinced the status quo is serving us well.

If they train, show or compete their dogs they will.
