I have finally launched my grassroots organization: Americans for Chicken Safety.
Who is ACS? ACS is a non-profit lobbying group that brings a fresh new voice to the public chicken debate. We hope to pressure state and local legislatures to pass sensible chicken laws to fight live chicken crime, and unregistered culinary practices. While we support the rights of law abiding chicken owners, we promote legislative measures that take chickens out of the hands of unlicensed chefs, criminals, and children. AGS is a non-partisan, not for profit advocacy group that has no affiliate with 'Big Chicken' or any political action committees.
One of our top priority is closing the supermarket loophole. As it stands right now, ANY private individual can simply walk into a supermarket (or farmer's market) and purchase chickens without any proper background check, licensing or culinary training.
Only through strict legislation and law enforcement, can we prevent chicken crime and spontaneous unregulated barbeques.
Check out the ACS website for more...
Having once raised 28 chickens, I KNOW how deadly they can be. I bought my chickens from a mail-order catalogue. It was THAT EASY to buy a chicken. No background check, no fingerprints. The chickens arrived in the mail fully loaded (with chickenshit) and without beak-locks. One of the roosters grew up, thought he was cock of the walk and spurred my son in the coop one day. I shot him with a .22 rifle (The ROOSTER...NOT my son) and made chicken and dumplings out of his dead carcass.
See? Chickens beget violence, and it's a never-ending circle.
We need chicken-control laws.
