Family ordered to get rid of pet chickens Quote: HOLLYWOOD, Fla., May 20 (UPI) -- A Hollywood, Fla., magistrate has ordered a family with seven pet chickens to move the birds out of the city by the end of the summer. Magistrate Paul Gifford said in his ruling Tuesday that he personally owned chickens until he was a teen, but current regulations state that owning chickens inside the city limits is a code violation, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reported Wednesday. Gifford gave the Kohn family until Aug. 17 to find a new home for the fowl. However, Steve Kohn said he is willing to take the case to the Supreme Court if necessary. "The notion that people find it odd that I like to keep chickens as pets should be nobody's business," Kohn said. "You might as well be regulating what type of food I eat, what type of clothes I wear and what I do inside my home." http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2009/05/...9271242831850/

Rules are the rules, should have been involved in the local government when the rule was pasted. Mark

This is acheived through varying methods of economic punishment and political suppression.
