I am one of those "horrible, terrible, rotten, flame-throwing" people that posted in response to Ron's "ferret snatching". Ron wrote to me that same day and clarified some things and I did apologize for jumping on his case. I don't regret what I posted as I was going by what he posted and the fact that he INTENDED to post anonymously. My feeling was, "If he was so certain of his actions, why was he intending to post anon?" In any event, for the record, here is a forward of our exchange. As Kat said, just because an apology isn't public, doesn't mean that it didn't happen. Renee ------------- >I did fail to mention that I am a Police Officer and Animal Control in >our town and the animals were seized in accordance with the law. Okay. You're pardoned. :-) But I still hold to my stance that vigilantism is no place for the average joe. >I have the ferrets because we can care for them, unlike the five dogs >that had to be destroyed because of her neglect. That is so sad! Thank you for taking care of the ferrets and I'm glad you're not just some bonehead out to do a "misguided" good deed. Have a great day!
