What would you change? - Page 6

It's gonna get boring, I told you leave me out of your little circle. Bye Bye, I'm done !!!

"P59, I have been advised that we are held to the same standard, as I mentioned earlier." Then you need to get your advice elsewhere. If a lawyer told you this, then he or she needs a remedial course in Administrative Law and should ask the professor for some extra help in understanding the concept of "legislative intent."

P59, I hold a licence from Oregon State Veterinary Medical Board, And work as the local municipal humane enforcement, ie. am the local "dog catcher" per the City and contract, further am the Humane society's appointed investigator. I get my information from Oregon State Statues, I don't beleive I was misinformed. I was also "Advised" by the investigators of the OHS who employ governor appointed investigators coving the entire state, I likely doubt they too would mislead me. And maybe the following Statue will make a few others here understand my position on this. SUMMARY Requires that certain public or private officials report suspected animal abuse.

Echo forgot to mention she's full of herself and full of crap.

spook101, ya so full of it that I quote Oregon State Statues. spook, I went back and read a bunch of your posts and it seems to be your favorite thing to do... ie.. tell people how they "promote self importance" is this your way of feeling better ??? I don't think that quoting Oregon State Statues makes me full of crap so if that's promoting self importance, Whatever ???? Your odd !!

Ohhh and Spook you forgot to mention your crudentials... Please do tell all where you get your psycho babble ?? comics, cracker jacks, radio, 2nd grade maybe ?? Ohh I also forgot to mention I don't care what you think, I will sleep as usual in good concious knowing my efforts are in good faith. You just promote hate and discontent everytime you open your mouth/type a message. read your latest posts, Your mouthy and onry to everyone you have the slightest disagreement with. EVERY Single ONE !!!! Pattern here ???

I only give you the attention you crave. By the way, congratulations on your position as dog catchers. It's rather appropriate.

(1) A veterinarian { + or public or private official + } who has reasonable cause to believe that an animal with which the veterinarian { + or public or private official + } has come in contact has suffered aggravated animal abuse," Did you come into contact with this animal?? ..." or that any person with whom the veterinarian { + or public or private official + } has come in contact has committed aggravated animal abuse,..." did DJC abuse an animal? shall immediately report the suspected aggravated animal abuse in the manner prescribed in subsection (2) of this section." "in the manner prescribed" implies that you have info as listed in (2) of this section, of which you have none, except third, fourth, fifth party hearsay on an internet messageboard... Calling and writing to USA might do some good if you present your position intelligently and are persistant. Dragging in HSUS and law officials does nothing good for anyone, as then everyone in this sport will be suspect.

I would change spook101's attitude, it's surlly and negative, not often lending people relevent or useful information. Always combative and staring crap for something to entertain him/herself with.

4pack, my suggestion to you would be, ignore my posts. I don't believe I was addressing you anyway.
