What pissed you off today?

This upset..And pissed me off...

Parental Neglect blamed on Ferret

For the record, I found the entire ferret-related allegations beyond absurd..
Why?
Let's start with the "chewed off fingers", even if {big IF}, the Ferret were capable of such a vicious attack, within the first bite, that child would be screaming his head off....
Ferrets have big fangs, I've seen a defensive bite, one of my friends, a grown 6 foot 4 inch Leather Daddy hopped around howling in pain, after a quick sharp bite on the meat of his thumb {I did warn him when I saw my furkid get skittish}...
Imagine a toddler??
Second of all, in all this, why wasn't she paying attention to her children to begin with??[Charge of Neglect]
The father put 2 + 2 and got 9, after seeing the ferret near the child....
I think they're trying to weasel {all pun intended} their way out of Animal Cruelty + Gross Negligence + Endangerment charges{not to mention Drugs}...
At this time, the Children, according to the articles, have already been placed in Foster during Investigations...

Either way, that poor ferret did Not deserve what they did to it...
That, and in Missouri apparently, ferrets have a bad "Rap", a few Advocacy/Rescues are trying their damnedest to contain this sudden wave of Misinformation..
Like I've said before countless times, a properly cared for Ferret, a well-trained Ferret, a Healthy Ferret will not bite unless they're Hyper {and even then it's a playful pinch, u can't put your mentality with theirs, they only know their playmates can handle rough play...} or Defensive, and they Always give fair warning {Bushy Tail, defensive stance, Hiss}...
Like a Dog does, when cornered, or scared...Growls+bark...
Like a cat does when pissed off or Scared...Growl+Hiss...
Like a skunk does when scared or Cornered...Growl+Stomp+Raise ass....
Any animal will bite in defense...
I find it very very dubious the poor ferret in this case chewed that infants Fingers off....
No, "food" is not a reason...
Ferrets Imprint, which means they're incredibly stubborn with their choice of Food, and if something tastes weird, they leave it {Bloody Finger, ew blood, anyone?}
"Raw" diet doesn't do that either...And I really doubt this ferret was on "Raw/B.A.R.F" diet...
And the Ferret in question is Not Rabid....was not

I intend to Quash this myth in my town that "Ferrets are Vicious", come Spring and the Ground thaws..

At work today one of the office people I work with and one of the elders had the elder's son who is an old time tent preacher who spits out hell fire and damnation to anyone or thing not in his narrow view of the world come to the center and preach his religion till it was a rant about if the world dosent live up to his standard of life we dont have the right to be on the earth...u will burn in hell fire and damnation so he said looking right at me and said I wasnt liveing right cause of my life choices.He looked at me and I did the same at him...I did not blink...not even once.Then he turned and walked away.The staff wasnt given an notice of his being there.I reported this to my agentcy and I was told that we are a goverment subsidary and its employees arent suposed to be subjected to this sort of thing.I just spoke to my big boss and now I have to option to not go to work that day or just work till he comes in and sets up.I hate to lose any pay over this but I have my rights as much as he dose.BUT I also have the right to NOT have to be subjected to someones hate and bigatry.This may seam petty to some but its not to me.
