If you feel that the Second Amendment gives you the right to purchase guns then you are no longer eligible to adopt a pet from this liberal animal shelter.
Apparently nowadays you have to support gun restrictions to be given permission to adopt a dog.
The Shelter Hope Pet Shop in Thousand Oaks, CA made a statement that was posted to its website in May:
“We do not support those who believe that the 2nd amendment gives them the right to buy assault weapons.”
“If your beliefs are not in line with ours, we will not adopt a pet to you.”
“Our community of Thousand Oaks became part of all the other cities in America, now scarred with the reputation of a mass killing. The shooter that killed 12 innocent humans at The Borderline Bar, came to our shop for community service hours. We believe he had scouted many locations and we were one of them. We changed our policy about volunteering after that incident, but now we feel confident to go even further than that.”
As shocking as this post is, yes, you read it right. This ‘woke’ California animal shelter is now using the Second Amendment as an excuse to prohibit people from adopting dogs. Things just don’t add up, do they?
Here’s what Karen Sill, the owner of Shelter Pet Shop, writes:
“If you hesitate, because your core belief is that you believe teachers need to carry firearms, then you will not get approved to adopt from us. If you foster for us and believe in guns, please bring our dogs and/or cats back, or we will arrange to have them picked up.”

Outside of your beliefs on gun control, other requirements put in place by the shelter include being at least 25 years old and having a current driver’s license.
The shelter also inspects the homes of potential adopters to see if they are able to provide a safe and loving environment for an animal, which we can only assume includes making sure the person passes the gun stance background check.
In fact, the shelter pledged: “If you lie about being a National Rifle Association supporter, make no mistake, we will sue you for fraud.”
100 Percent Fedup commented:
Sill completes her radical statement to the potential dog and cat adoptive parents with a note about how gun and ammunition manufacturer Remington just settled a lawsuit for 73 million with Sandy Hook parents who sued them.” Still, the lawsuit “didn’t stop the recent mass shootings,” so Sill is hoping her Stalinist efforts will make the change necessary to stop bad people from killing other people.
The National Rifle Association has called the shelter’s anti-gun requirement ludicrous.
“Having this asinine political litmus test comes at the expense of needy and homeless dogs and cats,” NRA spokeswoman Amy Hunter commented.
