Heck yah! Animals have no rights. They are PERSONAL PROPERTY and as such you can do anything you want... Sounds great to me... Ol' Rex as a throw rug!! that is way cool.... How do I get a hold of that guy??

"She(Anne Davis) has also filed a legal complaint and was in the process Thursday of obtaining a subpoena to find out the name and contact information of the person who made the posting." Anne Davis is screwed up a little too tight. It is a joke, maybe in poor taste, but a joke. I wonder how this guy intends to do horses and cows(what about elephants) at his home in Federal Hights??? I am sure large animals are prohibited in that neighborhood. More joke Anne.

The laws this article talks | 4:37 p.m. Oct. 23, 2008
about are not in the criminal code. I guess it is against the law to euthanize a noxiously weed, even though you are required to control(euthanize) them by law also.

Shooting cows in a home in Federal Heights?

Right now, someone is having a good laugh right now, and it's not just me.

I all seems pretty harmless to me, although I would be surprised if the law permits this guy to do what he was advertising. This animal worship has to stop though, it gets really old.

Pretty dang funny. The fact that it has riled up the animal rights people and ultra sensetive animal lovers everywhere makes it extra satisfying.

I have a cute but "yippy" pet dog. I will be sending this article to my wife as a suggestion. She'll roll her eyes. She may even laugh. But she won't sue me.

This was either a big joke | 9:37 p.m. Oct. 23, 2008
intended to put animal "rights" fanatics into a seething rage or... just a big joke. Either way, the one clear thing is that animal fanatics need to get a grip on life.

I used to love animals and had several dogs and other pets growing up, but today I am very hesitant to have any animal in my home or backyard. I can live without it because there is so much more to life.

Sorry animal fanatics, but your fanaticism ultimately will harm animals (although harming humans in the process is just fine because humans have no rights if they don't agree with liberal politics).

Joke? | 9:58 p.m. Oct. 23, 2008
Sounds pretty reasonable to me after being chased down the street by a family pet. Perhaps using the public sidewalk is not a human right.

No Joke. Not that bad of an idea in some situations. People have their dead Pets Cremated all the time. Some people have animals that they hunt stuffed and display posed. Roy Rogers did that with Trigger. There are all kinds of animal skin rugs. Throw Rugs, Plashes etc. Why not have your favorite kitty, rabbit, or dog, stuffed and display posed in their favorite spot. Of course I would seek the best work at the lowest price. That is just the business end of it.

Put 'er down. | 4:53 a.m. Oct. 24, 2008
Good for him.

This is why you don't "apopt" a pet, you buy them.

You "adopt" human beings.

Putting an animal "down" is very humane.

Thank you D News for bringing a smile to my face so early in the morning. Looks like you are spotlighting a practical joke each week (last week was the boys who ran around 24 hour fitness in "skimpy" underwear). Let's continue to see more articles like this cause they are just plain funny and help brighten my day. Thanks!

No. Utah sees a major earthquake every 350 years. Last one? 350 years ago.
