Animal control found my lost cat and also found a great home for my dog when I was relocated, unexpectedly, and had no place for her. I feel good about having a dog license, since it is the law. Having my cat back was such a relief. Don't know why Holly is so angry about animal control, they deserve the money they get and probably more for finding our lost pets and all the other things they do. Thanks animal control for finding my favorite cat and for the nice home my little dog found through your services. God bless you and all the animals you have helped!

On Officials Urge Pet Licensing to Combat Rabies Outbreak

I think the Mexican government as well a a segment of US government are in cahoots with each other in keeping things just the way they are. By continuing and perpetrating a language barrier they can exploit the poor for all they are worth and the natural ability to defend themselves is greatly reduced by this natural"Berlin Wall" so to speak. In many European countries their youth are taught more than one language and it is a requirement of graduating High School. In California there is a need for Spanish to be taught to English speaking students and for English to be taught to Spanish speaking citizens, instead they just took away bi-lingual classes for Spanish speaking students. Maybe I'm being extremely simplistic but I think the powers that be know exactly what they are doing and how it profits them to continue doing business as usual. Mexico is a beautiful country why would anyone want to leave it unless they are not being paid fair wages or allowed opportunities to advance? Exploiting the poor and uneducated has been going on since the beginning of recorded history and sometimes simple solutions are all that is required to bring about radical change.

On Suspect Arrested in Shooting of Two Men

These people should be sent to a lock down, rehab facility for a year and mandatory AA meetings upon release. It takes a whole year for a habitual drunkard to get the alcohol out of their system. Jails should not be the place for drunks or drug addicts; they need a new way of life. Jails and families are not equipped to deal with the destructive personality disorders created by the toxic effects of drugs and or alcohol. When are we going to graduate from medieval punishment to an enlightened medical and sociological approach to modern ills?
