Looking for a Pet-Free Hotel?
- Then head on over to Pet-Free Hotels (petfreehotels.com), a service of the publisher of this site.
The New York Times reported today (March 15) that two US Senators, John Kennedy (R) of Louisiana and Catherine Cortez Masto (D) of Nevada, “introduced a bill … to prohibit airlines from storing animals in overhead compartments. The bill is called Welfare of Our Furry Friends Act, or WOOFF.” The senators did this in response to the highly-publicized March 12 incident in which a passenger’s bulldog died on a United Airlines flight.
Meanwhile. There has been no equivalent response at the federal level to the shootings of dozens of American school children this year, and the year before that, and the year before that, and the year before that. So the non-existent bill introduced by no senators this week is called Total Disregard for Human Lives to Appease Gun Fetishists Act, or BULLSHIT.
Hmm. Did I make a mistake on that acronym? Correct me if I’m wrong.
