If people truly followed religious beliefs, there would be not need for legislated animal rights or any other rights for that matter. Man was given dominion over the animal world and unfortunately when we screw things up, we legislate a solution or we think. I for one am not in favor of the mountain lion ban, however it is an example of democracy at its finest – a government by the people for the people. Unfortunately the commercials to market that ban were shown in the S.F. and L.A. areas, out of the eyes and ears of those most affected. I say that because most city folk don’t hunt. The down side in this case is truly the lack of awareness and state citizen representation in the vote.
