This upsets me.

Me too. It's very sad.
Our wonderful Gov Kasich let Strickland's ban on exotic animals expire. He said it wasn't workable.
Quote:
Before leaving office, former Gov. Ted Strickland issued a ban barring people from bringing exotic animals into Ohio.
It also prohibited people convicted of animal cruelty, like Terry Thompson, from owning exotic animals.
Under that plan, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources would have been in charge of enforcing the ban, but the governor said that would have exceeded their authority.
Kasich defended his actions on Wednesday.
"What had been proposed frankly wasn't workable," said Kasich. "The complications connected to this and as a result we formed a working group."

If some sort of action isn't taken soon, Ohio will continue to be one of a handful of states with virtually no regulation or private ownership of dangerous wild animals.

In Ohio. Tenth in the nation in population density.
Kasich is a fart. Anything Strickland did he ripped apart. (I'm a poet and I know it.)
Poor guy was depressed and pissed off so he let all the animals go before killing himself. Fuck him. I hope there's a special hell for him.
