First, they came for my dog's balls

 

There's discussion about a mandatory spay/neuter ordinance here in Lockhart.

You really, really don't want this.

Ever hear of "Problem, Reaction, Solution"? In my day it was called "Thesis, Antithesis, Synthesis." No matter, it's the same old theme from the Communist playbook on how to control people and situations.
Here's how it works.
The problem is that there are a lot of unwanted dogs and cats. Your reaction is to call upon government to help. The solution is for the government to take ownership of the dogs and cats and force you, the caretaker of the government's dogs and cats, to sterilize them.
Ready to hear the scary part? The real solution is that by allowing the government to tell you what to do with your dogs and cats, you have been trained just like an animal to accept commands, to heel, to obey without question.

Sit, Ubu, sit. And listen carefully. Power that you grant to government -- whether city, county, state, nation -- never comes back to you without a lot of pain.
If a government agency can clip your dog's balls, soon enough, they will clip yours. Or cut out your sister's or wife's uterus. Actually, that is the preferred scenario because historically, that's what they did. Yes, DID. It has already happened.
Shocking fact: Eugenics Boards in over 30 states forcibly sterilized 70,000+ women from 1910 to 1974. But not to worry. Most were poor, Black, Latina, or Native Americans -- you know, expendable groups with negotiable rights, not unalienable rights like everyone else.
The Supreme Court of the United States -- not the Soviet Union or China -- ruled that the State of Virginia had legal authority to sterilize a young woman whose mother and grandmother were mentally ill because "three generations of imbeciles is enough." Yes, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes really said that (Buck vs. Bell, 1927). A little background: Carrie Buck, the plaintiff, had been a good student and was on the honor roll, but she had been raped by her adoptive mother's nephew, so to cover it up, she was labeled as "feeble-minded," which qualified her for sterilization.
Ready for shocker #2? The Court considered that the existing compulsory vaccination laws were sufficient to include compulsory sterilization. Does every state have compulsory vaccination laws, including Texas? Eight of the nine justices agreed that "public welfare" outweighed the rights of individuals so that the State would not be "swamped with incompetence".
Shocker #3: Buck vs. Bell has never been overturned.
If you would consent for the City of Lockhart to pass such an ordinance that violates the most foundational principles of American jurisprudence -- ownership of private property and sanctity of conscience, then you are a gullible pawn in the hands of those voices who think that the earth has not only too many dogs and cats, but too many people. These voices are whispering to low-intelligence politicians that humanity should be kept at 500 million, meaning that 93.5% of living souls today must leave the planet.
I tell you, today your dog and tomorrow: you.
Bonus Shocker: The Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 spoke of the subjects of its regulations: "man or other animals." It wasn't "man or animals." It was "man or OTHER animals." Do you get it?
For over 100 years, your government has legally determined you to be an animal. Soon after, every State adopted that phrase, so now it is encoded in both federal and state law.
Quiet revolution, no bullets, no protests. But there should have been. People should have taken to the streets and demanded the resignation of every CongressCritter who had a hand in that seditious legislation. In the name of consumer protection, the entire jurisprudence of the United States of America was overturned. We the People, the sovereigns of the nation, were quantified as animals. Listen up, Fido: Animals do not own, do not possess, do not take dominion, do not go out and make disciples of all nations.
They obey. They can be turned into leather or hamburger, fed swill, be tested upon in labs, be lied to, or be culled at the whim of their master.
No matter how our hearts break at the ugly euthanasia of innocent dogs and cats, the civil and spiritual liberty of Man supersedes any mandatory spay/neuter ordinance. ASPCA also sees the problem, and agrees that voluntary sterilization is the only answer.
