Until this morning, I thought the worst thing that Chick-Fil-A had ever done was replace its original BBQ sauce with the “smoky” flavor. Today I found out that the Chick-Fil-A foundation donated $2,500 to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) in 2017. The SPLC, whatever it was originally meant to be, is essentially an anti-Christian … Read more
The Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture Act (PACT) was a bipartisan bill that criminalized the “intentional crushing, burning, drowning, suffocating, impalement or other serious harm” to “living non-human mammals, birds, reptiles, or amphibians.” So choking out an iguana, a species which is taking over Florida like a plague, is now a federal offense.
