That's an EXTREMELY good point Rhonda. I re-read that part of the blog. Since when does being gay equate with 'secretive crimes ? By secretive crimes is she talking about molestation? Oh my............

LOL....glad that you see that the church has 'potential'.
You state that the Catholic Church is not perfect. i would be very interested in knowing the names of the ones that you think are perfect.. -

ReplyI'm sorry... but if you ( generic you) are so unhappy about the church's views on contraception etc etc there are plenty of other churches you can attend. I guess we are lucky that no other churches are plagued by scandals, so pick one of those.
Where did you get the information that 'American Catholics are watchful and wary'? Not one Catholic that I have spoken to has expressed that opinion.
After the first couple of sentences I could see this was just going to be a blog that was bashing Catholics. A shame really.
Are you a Catholic? Former Catholic? -

I think you are right Catherine....everything seemed to line up. We were in the right place at the right time, there were people around who had the tools to help, the ducks cooperated ( that was the BIG one) , and somehow our fear of getting into that murky cold water was removed momentarily. We were lucky enough to find a vet licensed to treat wild birds very close by. Yep, all in all - it was a good day : )

ReplyTim,
I don't believe I once denigrated your profession or stated that there was not a reason to control coyotes so I am really unsure why you feel the need to use the tone you do. My replies were in no way an attack on what you do. The post I replied to concerned coyotes in an urban environment. I am pretty sure I did not ever mention anything negating the damage both economic and actual that these animals inflict upon farmers. That is a whole different issue.
I think I said.
1. We need to educate ourselves about coyotes
2. It is uncommon for coyotes to attack humans
3. There are considerably more dog attacks than coyote attacks.Yep, that was pretty much it..............

ReplyTim,
I have read the government studies and unless you have access to some super duper secret ones not available to the general public we have the same info : ). I also looked at all of your links - why would you assume otherwise ? Not sure how the one about women in Canada being 'confronted' by wolves is relevant here but.... I understand we need to be careful, we need to protect our pets, we need to be aware of how this animal behaves. And yes, there will be times when an animal needs to be removed. But again I say to you, the chances are slim that any of us here reading this blog will ever be attacked by a coyote. My neighbor however was taken to the ground by a Golden Retriever in December and had to have tendons in her arm stitched - go figure.
I understand protecting a farmer and his livestock - I get all that. I however do not understand why some folks vilify the coyote and make it almost a beast of epic proportions. I really get the feeling that some folks would only be truly happy if the coyote was completely eliminated, I really hope that isn't the case..........

Have to disagree here Julie, opinions are still valid however the poster chooses to identify themselves. City council put themselves in the 'firing line' , comes with the territory and they should expect that. I really don't see anyone 'taking aim' , they are merely replying to a blog...and sometimes they will have differing opinions....again....comes with the territory....
