Oklahoma, Sept 29th

Oklahoma City police stormed into a pet store and seized tropical fish from a pet store because they were dyed in violation of city law. The government took the fish from Quality Pets and had them killed.

Quality Pets store proprietor Donnie Fleming says police came to his store after someone complained about a fish he sold that had "I love you" dyed on its skin.

"It's ironic the city promotes fishing in which a minnow has a hook stuck in it and used as bait but coloring a fish and putting it in an aquarium and feeding it is considered cruel." says Fleming.

The Oklahoma City council is discussing amending the city law to allow dyeing fish different colors.

I am sure the fish who were killed by the government appreciate that.
