Common sense???? from a Government agency????? After Ike hit the area, and the shingles were lifted and peeled back from the roof decking down the entire length on one side of my home, rain was driven into my attic, which flooded, causing the ceiling and then the walls down one side of my home to actually cave in. The appraiser came out....I swear this is true!!...climbed on my roof, PULLED HIS LITTLE APPRAISER BOOK 101 FROM HIS HIP POCKET, AND TOLD ME THE ROOF DID NOT NEED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE....and this is the halarious part!!!!....NO SHINGLES WERE LAYING ON THE GROUND IN THE YARD!! THEY HAD JUST BEEN PEELED BACK AND COULD BE FOLDED BACK OVER THE AREA AND THEY WOULD BE FINE!!!!!!!!
Do I give ANY government agency ANY credit for any sense or the capability to make any determination that is not spelled out EXACTLY as any given situation presents itself in their little RULES AND REGULATION BOOK 101, ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! This is only 1/4 of the problem.....I have a real issue of unannounced visits! I also hold a gun dealers license. This gives the ATF the right to come into my home any time and inspect my home for compliancy....I HAVE NO ISSUE WITH THIS AS I CONDUCT MY GUN BUSINESS FROM ONE ROOM IN MY HOME. THAT IS THE ONLY AREA THEY CAN INSPECT, ALONG WITH THE RECORDS OF THE BUSINESS. My babies have run of the majority of my home......I WILL GET OUT OF THIS BUSINESS BEFORE I ALLOW FEDERAL DISPATCHERS TO RUN RAMPANT ALL OVER MY HOME, INSPECTING ANY AREA WHERE MY DOGS ARE ALLOWED TO RUN, BRINGING IN GOD ONLY KNOW WHAT KIND OF DISEASES ALL OVER THEIR BOOTS, CONTAMINATING MY ENTIRE HOME....NO THANKS!
This has always been my passion...this is NOT how I make my living, because doing this correctly is NOT a money making deal for small breeders, although I must admit, I DO make more than $500.00/year off my puppies, MAYBE MAKING ME A "GREEDER" IN SOME PEOPLES EYES..... All I have ever wanted to do with this, is be able to provide people with healthy, correct Yorkies that dont die of genetic anomolies or diseases. I will NOT allow my home to be stormed by troopers dispatched by ANY government agency, unannounced, who then may just decide to STEAL my dogs under the guise of "non compliant conditions", dispersing them to whomever THEY can peddle them to.....no I will rehome all my dogs, and give up this expensive passion of mine. NO....I will let the rest of you "trust" a government agency to make decisions and determine how they are going to run YOUR homes and daily lives. I will NOT allow the feds to intrude into my life to that degree, just so I can provide healthy puppies to a majority of pet owners that can NOT get past the vision of puppy mills in the woods, and would support a measure that will absolutely do more harm and damage to the WRONG GROUP of people, while having little or not effect on the hated puppy mills! Or I will move to Canada! Gail, how is the real estate market up there????!!! |
