God hates dog
I complain a lot about the growing nanny state threat to dog ownership in the United States, but fortunately, dog control measures are nowhere near as draconian here as they are in Iran: A 70-year-old Iranian man was arrested and sentenced to four months in jail and 30 lashes for walking his dog, Adnkronos.com reported Tuesday. Police caught the man on the street with his dog in Shahr Rey, a suburb of Tehran.Four months in the slammer plus thirty lashes? The things Coco takes for granted here! Why, she demands walks daily at least. Next time she nags me for not walking her enough I'll tell her about what would happen to us in Iran! I take it that keeping a small Vietnamese pot belly pigs as pets in Iran would probably be a no-no too. For his part, president Ahmadinejad seems to have a hypocritical attitude about Iran's religious anti-dog dogma: President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad recently provoked debate in Iran about dog ownership when he took possession of four guard dogs, bought in Germany for approximately $161,040 each.Yeah, and he likes to play around with Hugo Chavez too. But as I proved in a previous post, neither Mahmoud nor Hugo have as much fun as Trey and Coco! More here on the dogs of Mahmoud. At times like this I'm almost inclined to agree with the Peter Singer view that "a rat is a pig is a dog is a Mahmoud." posted by Eric on 02.26.08 at 06:09 PM
