California To Create Public Animal Abuser Registry

An anonymous reader writes "California legislators are moving forward with plans to create a public, online, animal abuser registry identical in function to the public sex offender registry. Is this the slippery slope to further government mandated lists and registries?"

It would be nice for conversation purposes

[SlappyBastard]

I hate to discover only after the fact that someone I'm having a conversation with likes to beat a dead horse.

What about ...

Violent bestiality with a minor?

VHS is better than Beta! People often compare high quality beta players with cheap VHS players, but that's not fair at all. The better VHS players have just as good an image as Beta and has longer playtime too.

...nothing quite like revisiting an old horse I'm afraid.

This could be quite useful

Sheep farms could background check employees against this type of list.

If someone's puppy goes missing they could use these lists to interview suspects.

And if a dead squirrel is found, detectives might be able to rule out natural causes if an abuser is found.

They should be careful not to take it so far. Many birders could be put at risk merely for taking a picture of a young chick.

So, what next?

Next time they will create a public online registry of slashdotters.

Won't Someone Please Think of the Puppies?

I think under CA law, you could apply for disability.

I'll have to apply. I'm a pyronecrobestiapedophiliac.

Yes, I like to take young dead animals, light them on fire and then fuck them.

I'd like to have a registry listing people in favor of registries. So I can avoid dealing with the fascist fucks.
