Oh, we would consider to be lucky to live in the area where the police aren't so busy combating crime that they have the time to do other things. However, I can't see stopping to check on a license as being one of them. I will stick to the subject of why I brought up this post, and that is regarding mandatory laws passed here in our county, and my gripe is being told that we have to spay our yorkie when we don't want to do so, that is a right of ours, and I don't like govenment telling me that I have to do that. IMO it is our business if we want to or don't want to spay/neuter not big brothers.
For others that might want to read more on this I bookmarked a site, interesting news updates on this subject, (please look to the right and scroll up.) The vote was 4-0 and this was put into effect not by the vote of the people but by those elected officials on the board of supervisors

Thanks for taking the time to read this on the forum, I am thankful to live in a country where we have freedom of speech and where I believe that such laws as this is voted in by the people and not pushed on us like this was.
