In recent days there has been many activists in Wisconsin to help save beagle puppy’s from a devastating situation at ridgeland farms which includes using these puppy’s as test subjects and most succumbing to the extreme amount of torture brought apon them. The police in Wisconsin have been using excessive force to take these activists down including shooting rubber bullet, tear gassing and spraying pepper spray in the eyes of these poor people, these activists are peaceful , they do not have intentions to harm anybody so in conclusion to this matter I am raising a petition not for just this situation but for there to be a law allowing rescue missions to happen under the pretense that a facility is illegally abusing animals. This is not only for those poor beagles but for every animal trapped in a facility like this all around the world. 

here is a rundown of a bill I drafted for legislation
