What Would You Do?
Via The Agitator, I see that the city of Denver is rounding up and killing registered pit bulls for the actions of a few that were bred to be killers.
My first reaction to the story was, “Shit, I’d like to see the government try to take my cat away to be slaughtered. Bring it.”
Cute, but I have an apartment, a car, and a career. A straight-up refusal to cooperate with government would threaten all of these things and more. Would I sacrifice my cat to avoid becoming an enemy of the state? I’m sad to say I probably would.
What I don’t want to think about is what else I’d do if the government demanded it.
