Brody, I didn't say you were naive about the process. I said you were naive if you think they wouldn't manipulate the truth or down right lie.
I know there are cases of animal abuse and cruelty. There are people that deserve to be punished for the way they treat animals and I don't have a clue if this case is one of those.
What I am saying is that they have no oversight or accountability in the way they handle things. They can take your animals, fine you a bazillion dollars, sterilize your animals, adopt them out while all without you ever having your say in court. And if some twisted political agenda can be met by doing that to you, then you are naive to assume that taking care of your animals right will save you from being used as a pawn by them.
