John, Recently, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) tragically euthanized two beloved animals—Peanut the Squirrel and Fred the Raccoon—belonging to Mark Longo, a compassionate individual who devoted time and care to nursing these animals back to health after finding them in desperate need. Mark rescued Peanut as a baby squirrel and Fred as an orphaned raccoon, both of whom he rehabilitated and grew to love as family.
Despite this bond, NYSDEC’s bureaucracy deemed these innocent creatures a threat to public safety, seizing and killing them without regard for their lives or the clear affection they shared with Mark. The Libertarian Party is working around the clock to send bureaucrats, like the ones who murdered Peanut and Fred, home or to court to face justice for their actions. Help us with a donation today >>> It’s a painful reminder of the government’s reach and the ease with which faceless
bureaucracies can uproot personal lives and enforce arbitrary rulings. These are animals who posed no harm to society and only sought refuge in the loving home Mark provided. The Libertarian Party is calling for justice for Peanut and Fred. If this story resonates with you, help us let the thugs who did this know exactly how we feel about them.
