First the bay city decided we American’s just shouldn’t be able to decide matters such as circumcision. We shouldn’t have to worry about decisions like that since we have a brilliant and all knowing government to think for us.
Now San Francisco is taking things a step further by possibly relieving the American’s that live within its limits of the terrible right to purchase a pet goldfish.
San Francisco’s Animal Control and Welfare Commission is recommending that the City ban the sale of goldfish, tropical fish and guppies in its borders, according to Matier and Ross.
The recommendation to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors is part of the commission’s ongoing efforts to discourage “impulse buys” of animals.
The commission’s ban would cover pet stores and breeders in the City. It comes after more than a year of study and findings that aquarium fish are often mass bred under inhumane conditions or stripped from the wild.
It almost seems as if these idiots read Atlas Shrugs and instead of learning lessons from it, they got ideas.
I mean, San Francisco has managed to chase off most parents with children, cutting off future generations of workers, business and tax dollars. They kicked a medical industry to the curb and now Pet Smart and many other pet stores are likely to notice little value of sticking around.
Good going liberals… way to succeed as a city.

ARSCHLOCHS!!!
Impulse buying? Really? I suppose they will enact a 5-day cooling off period simialr to guns. These idiots have watched Nemo and Free Willy one too many times. I’ll bet they don’t eat fish either. Too much tofu and veggie-burgers rot the brain in my opinion.
Are you FREAKING KIDDING ME?!?!
Wait. Are we even still allowed to call them GOLD fish? ‘Cause that refers to a color and that might racist.
Why would any sane person live in San Francisco. Why would any sane person live in California? We would be better off if it just slid off into the Pacific.
Those businesses didn’t get waivers from obummercare. They didn’t have much longer to survive in SF anyway.
USA renamed CSA
The former United States of America,,
was divided and fell under the direct attack of the liberals,,,
siting rules and be kind to our relatives ,,, ( animals over human rights, )
lost in translation when it came to Marriage,,, two people agree to live together to raise a family,,, and become one family for life,,, to,,, Marriage to gay ( not happy ) people who want to live together to disrupt the lives of all normal people,, that are against killing unborn , and think murder is a crime,,,
Now the Communist States of America,, where all normal life is banned and pets are superior and must be protected above any low human life form,
Good job,,,
This would actually be funny if the Morons weren’t serious. Give me a break, we spend countless hours on some Rep. and his display package, when this country is in some serious need of taking care of business not BS.
Ohhhh noooo. And they are so good with hot sauce!
Love Diviney’s response about the waiting period!
….Should do a back ground check, too.
Oh yeah, they’re terribly noisy, too.
Once upon a time San Francisco was a wonderful place to live — while not as “free” as alleged, it provided venues for art, literature and discussions; vistas and challenges abounded. Then something happened! I was there 1946-1951 and returned in 1965, so I felt the change. Now, from Northern California I will only go to the City by the Bay under duress. It seems that thinking, working people have migrated away leaving what seems to be a population of the beneficiaries of government largesse and the politicians of a persuasion that embraces a failed ideology! Goldfish, being an offshoot of the carp family (I think) will be the wedge to outlaw the purchase, ownership and display of Koi for backyard oriental gardens. Oh, well! What’s one city among so many? When will San Francisco make it onto the “endangered cities” list?
What did Archie Bunker used to say? Something about God waiting until all the fruits and nuts had moved there, and then comes “the big one that dumps the whole state into the ocean.”
i miss archie …
Hey Mayor, you can discourage ‘impulse marrying’! Especailly when men want to hook up with men and women want to hook up with women!
You and the Gov hooked up and stopped ‘impulsing farming’ in San Joaquin Valley, the most fertile land in America! Now ALL of the farmers are on Welfare and Food Stamps, because you morons saved a worthless little fish!
How’s that working out for ya? $15 billion in arrears because of your socialist/communist unions and Teacher Pensions! Guess what boys?
Your state spends $15 billion dollars and this is about the same amount of taxpayers money you spend annually on illegal aliens living in California!
All this nonsense emanated fron San Francisco reminds me of a proverb from the old country: “As the wolf had no wound to lick, he licked his a**hole”.
Last year or the year before, they banned the sale of all animals (gerbils, hampsters, birds, etc). Seems like when I read it, the only live pet they could sell was fish, so now they’ve banned them. I’m pretty sure they’re next stupid idea will be the ban of meat at grocers or restaurants…. Such a beautiful city – too bad about the idiots there.
Two years ago, a Californian judge cut the water to farmers to save an endangered fish. So, I guess it IS fish over humans in not only San Francisco, but all of California!! Seems like that’s where the unemployment last year was 34%.
Typical of “San Franfreaksho, Ca.” What a carnival of inaneness.
