13 Wisconsin officials raid animal shelter to kill baby deer named Giggles

Post by RuralEngineer »

From the YCMTSU files (You Can't Make This Shit Up):

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/201 ... r-kill-ba/
Two weeks ago, Ray Schulze was working in a barn at the Society of St. Francis no-kill animal shelter in Kenosha, Wis., when officials swarmed the shelter with a search warrant.

“[There were] nine [Department of Natural Resources] agents and four deputy sheriffs, and they were all armed to the teeth,”? Mr. Schulze told WISN 12. “It was like a SWAT team.”?

The agents were there to retrieve a baby deer named Giggles that was dropped off by a family worried she had been abandoned by her mother, the station reported. Wisconsin law forbids the possession of wildlife.

“I said the deer is scheduled to go to the wildlife reserve the next day,”? Mr. Schulze told the station. “I was thinking in my mind they were going to take the deer and take it to a wildlife shelter, and here they come carrying the baby deer over their shoulder. She was in a body bag. I said, ‘Why did you do that?’ He said, ‘That’s our policy,’ and I said, ‘That’s one hell of a policy.’”?
More sterling stewardship of our tax dollars by the government.  This time protecting us from the evil baby deer by sending 13 officers to a no-kill shelter in order to assassinate a baby deer before it could be turned over to a wildlife reserve.

I think we have a few too many government policies.

The policies are symptomatic, and the mindset behind the policies (present to varying degrees in both parties) I would argue is the real problem. 

We need more elected officials like PS.

What did I do to deserve such a terrible fate?  :(

I'm surprised they didn't send in Seal Team 6.

What a bunch of asshats. Sorry about the language, but sometimes you just gotta call it what it is. I bet they got a real rush out of killing that deer, like they were storming the beach at Normandy.

I think those guys just focus on killing baby seals.

You were probably thinking of those "Bambi Beret" dudes from the Army.  I think they call themselves the "Larval Venison Liquidators", or "LVL" for short.

I got a great story for you guys. It starts like this: "A baby seal walks into a club..."
