I rode my bike to work today; assassins be damned.

Howie and I are going to be in NY for a special, invitation only, Facebook event on Wednesday, so we are flying up on Tuesday and coming back on Thursday.  That means I only have today and tomorrow to ride and get some exercise before then.

 

I’m not being totally nonchalant about it though, as I rode in much later than usual, and plan to return earlier than usual tonight.  Just in case.

 

When I got home last night Howie commented that the email thread with Pat Craig was interesting.  I retorted that it was the most Pat’s ever spoken to me, and by far the nicest he’s ever been to me.  I think he’s always seen me as a media whore that overshadows his glory.

 

During our nightly jacuzzi time I told Howie what I’d like to do is offer to pay Joe’s rent and a reasonable allowance if he will hand over the GW Zoo and the animals to the rescue community and move to some foreign country where he’s unlikely to get his hands on cats again.  Maybe Argentina or Columbia, where wild animals are recognized by the courts as “persons” who have the right to be free.

 

I’d be willing to pay that rent and stipend until his natural death.  This will be a bitter pill for Howie to swallow, but in time I think he’d see that it was the fastest way to end the prolific breeding and pimping of cubs there.  It also shuts down one more of Antle’s places to dump his “used cubs” at the end of the season.

 

I’d even go one better and laud Joe for doing the right thing…for once in his miserable life.

 

Hi, I’m Carole Baskin and I’ve been writing my story since I was able to write, but when the media goes to share it, they only choose the parts that fit their idea of what will generate views.  These are my views and opinions. If I'm going to share my story, it should be the whole story.  The titles are the dates things happened. If you have any interest in who I really am please start at the beginning of this playlist: http://savethecats.org/

 

I know there will be people who take things out of context and try to use them to validate their own misconception, but you have access to the whole story.  My hope is that others will recognize themselves in my words and have the strength to do what is right for themselves and our shared planet.
