Sure you see stickers that are annoying (Baby on Board) but you just have to smile and disregard the stupidity of them (Oh I was going to ram your car off the road and kill you and your occupants but then I saw you had a baby on board so I decided to let your car pass and get the next guy) and just celebrate the love of their child...
So anyway if you think of all the issues facing our world today...from continued unrest in the middle east, systemic issues with regard to the health and welfare of indigenous Australians, decades of unaddressed hunger and poverty in the African continent, the need to add more courts to deal with the increased number of activities of rugby league players, through to the potential for environmental calamity with global warming and yet the woman who parked next to me felt that this was her biggest concern.
So she is not just worried about (I guess) dogs and cats being made available to purchase by loiving families....No she wants all animals protected from those....those...those pet shops...What about those poor goldfish,living a life of being looked at every day by thousands of people they don't know..No privacy, no quiet place to swim off and contemplate their lot in life.
And what about the poor mice....Ok they still get to procreate (alot!) but is this really a life that we should subject them to.
Oh and not only is there a sticker that can be proudly displayed by the couple of people who truly care about pets being available in pet shops...These supporters of all that is wrong with our society also have a web site!!
As I drove away I wanted to turn back and run up to the woman and say how envious I was of her life. Imagine if, in all the troubled areas of your life and the world around you, the one thing that you feel SOOOO passionate about is that pets are available in pet shops..........You must have a truly wonderful life.
