@puck61 Not the examples I'd pick, but sure.
Can I rant for a sec?
The problem with laws like this is that liberals are trying to impose their own perverted non-human centered sense of morality on the American people, in clear contravention of our Judeo Christian heritage, which endorses man's natural right of Dominion over lesser species.
To make matters worse, doing it on a federal level is plainly unconstitutional, as animals are given no rights in the Constitution, while religious rights to torture animals and especially, to cuddle and pray with poisonous reptiles should be sacrosanct.
Finally, this is a clear example of the expanding federal government impinging on the sovereignty of the States. Why should the feds be able to dictate what a man does with his chattel on his homestead, if he doesn't even cross state lines.
Stuff like this needs to be stopped, before they start taking the sheep from our bedrooms, asking them if they consented, and whether it was good or bad for them.
How does that sound?

@Randy777 I agree that it is excellently written, and contains an element of logic and insight, especially in the consideration of the potential "Pandoras Box" that could be opened by this legislation, but I still believe that people who starve their horses, or torture animals should do prison time. Buggering sheep is wrong because sheep cannot consent. I'm not talking about rotting in prison. Let the punishment fit the crime. 6 months to eight years, depending on the severity of the crime.
