Those barn cats are enabled by the fat cats in Washington.

So you're only straight because you're choosing to be straight?

I have news for you, you're probably gay.

I'm straight, but I didn't choose to be. Just don't find the same sex attractive.

They generally don't cause problems where they're from because they're kept in check by predators (for example, owls)

Absolutely, just leave all that bs down there.

Easier for them to complain on the internet than actually do anything about it

Take the carferry to Ludington it's a cool trip

Can catch it in that town from Making a Murderer

Ah yes, all the people I know chose to be gay so they'd get kicked out of their homes and excommunicated.

I second that notion on Sleeping Bear. Just...Northern Michigan in general is beautiful. If you like camping it's like heaven.

Sacked.

Why don’t you run if you think you can do better?

Nazis are not a protected class, discriminate against them as much as you like!

People choose to join the KKK or wear Nazi paraphernalia.

People don't choose to be gay or their gender. These things are influenced by biology.

We grant protections to people based on things they can't control, like age, race, or where they were born.

Calm down, nice scapegoat though.

Besides, that’s what hate group designations are for.

Besides that, if your store is the kind of store the KKK frequents, who exactly are you marketing to?

I will not provide service to KKK members or arm band wearing Nazis. And you can get bent if you think I should be forced to

Lower peninsula didn't have much in the way of hard freezes this winter. Should be an exciting tally of humans carried away by giant mosquitoes by the end of the season!

We have a catio for our cat.

We used to have outdoor cats when I was a kid (not my choice and my mom didn't know better at the time, she is more environmentally aware now). We had 1 get hit by a car, 1 poisoned, and 1 beaten to death by some psycho (vet said the trauma was indicative of blunt force but not what would be expected if a car hit him) all in a period of two weeks and after years without incident.

Even if you don't care about the environment please keep your cats inside for their own sake.

Also, in many towns if your cat (or dog) has killed native wildlife the town is allowed to seize your pet and euthanize it or rehome it in addition to fining you. Just as you are held legally responsible for your pet attacking a person you can also be held legally responsible when they attack a non-pet animal. As an example robins are protected under the Migratory Bird Protection Act, killing robins can apparently result in a fine of up to $15,000 and up to 2 years in prison. I doubt a judge would throw the book at you for your cat killing a robin, but they'd be well within their rights to fine you $500; as an acquaintance of mine discovered when his cat killed a robin at his neighbor's bird feeder and the neighbor caught it on camera and reported it. The cat was not euthanized, but they were told any future reports would result in the cat being seized and then either killed or rehomed depending on a behavioral evaluation.

Especially when no one is working on it and it’s terribly underfunded. I can write to my state Senator for months about how people are struggling to get to work and no one cares.

The republicans here only care about Christian farmers. The Democrats want to focus all their energy on gay kids.

And the working poor? Left behind as usual.

No it shouldn’t; that’s just segregation

You choose to live in a society, you exist with all parts of that society

Freedom of dissociation should be protected
