Subject: Re: Squirrel lives matter!
“RIP Peanut,” read a post on a Trump campaign’s official TikTok account on Sunday. “Needlessly murdered by Democrat bureaucrats in New York.”

Other than the ludicrous labelling of this event as the work of an out of control Democratic bureaucracy, the event itself is a tragedy that should never have happened the way it did. The squirrel (and its raccoon friend) were both well-loved pets of a caring couple. Yes, they were both wild animals, but had been domesticated. Both animals were taken peremptorily after the couple was "ratted out" to the authorities. But it was done carelessly and with zero regard for the stress it put on the human couple. They apparently were not even cited for any health violation. And if the animals did in fact have rabies, then, yes, I suppose they would have to be euthanized, but the human owners should have been informed first. Both were apparently euthanized IN ORDER to test for rabies. Is there no way to test them BEFORE killing them?
