On CliffNotes (Legalization newsletter) out in CA, an article by a realtor in Humboldt Co CA was copied that was basically a hit piece on ferrets (weasels) and their owners.

Personally, I think that having companion animals. including our fuzzies, helps us put aside the big bad scary world for a few, thereby helping us deal with the big stuff.
