LA passes law limiting roosters to 1 per household

AP story at LINK

So glad they are taking care of the important stuff first.

I hope this is overturned, these nutty California politicians certainly don't need egging on.

This has to be some sort of yolk.

Then again, look at what Los Angeles has become, and it's hardly surprising in some neighborhoods.

Hmm...  I sense an unspoken detail of exactly who this law is targeting.  Clue: cockfighting isn't big in American society, but it's quite popular south of here.

It is religious suppression. We need cocks for our VOODOO rites and Halloween is coming up.

Funny you post this. I can hear a rooster at about 5:30-6:00 am every morning.  It is faint but it makes me mad for some reason.  I'm awake by this time anyway so I don't know why it makes me mad.

I'm sure there is some smartass comment to be made about a cock running loose, but I won't say it.  :innocent:

Um, because you're in the middle of freakin Orange County and there hasn't been a farm in that part of CA since the end of WWII?  Wow--you live closer to Commonwealth Ave. than I thought, hon.

Yeah, there are still a few farms and farming businesses in OC, but not nearly as prevalent as they once were.  However, I've always liked shopping that the OC Marketplace on the weekends.  It's in Costa Mesa at the end of the 55 Freeway (OC Fairgrounds).  Parking and admission are cheap, and there's literally TONS of stuff there.

If you own property in the very rural part of the county here, you had better be armed when you visit it. "Those" southerners will either be growing pot on it or holding a chicken fight.

Law breakers will get fried in the courts.  Should be fun to stay abreast of the situation though.

Wonder when they will impose the "one rooster per household" here in Fresno.

There's just something fowl about this law.  I'm just not sure it will fly in the courts.

Probably won't, they are just trying to lay down the law.

Well, it gave the city folks something to crow about anyway.  Feather or not it will do any good I don't know.
