I was in conversation yesterday evening regarding dogs and their weird presents they bring from yards, and it came up that my friends neighbor was using rat poison and it was killing the squirrels. It got me thinking about the injustice of our legal system. We are perfectly allowed to set out poisons for rodents, weeds, and insects leading to dreadful effects and deaths far beyond our original intent (In short, we are allowed to kill the local wildlife to keep our homes sanitized). But… we are not “allowed” to raise meat ethically, humanely, and safely for consumption within city limits. No… that kind of death is gross and cannot be tolerated.

I'm always at a loss to understand if its malicious, stupidity or incompetence when it comes to us humans and the odd rules and regulations we apply

From a micro level, probably incompetence. From a macro level, probably malicious…

Is that the "legal system" per se, or the regulatory machine at the executive branch level that often goes unchecked by said system? But I totally hear you either way. It's bizarre what's regulated/illegal and what isn't in many cases.

Agreed. Much better definition is the regulatory system
