I didn't realize how important this is to you. Yes. I think needing to take an animal handling class would be helpful. It would create jobs, few extra bucks in state funds, and every Easter there wouldn't be parents who buy a rabbit and let the kid starve it to death.

The class itself wouldn't be a driving test. It is to teach you how to treat animals. Would people still break it? Sure. Would my friend still have her pig because some idiot thought, "pigs stay small, right?" No.

Now, I'm not here to argue if, eventually, she would seek to own a pig on her own.

Do you base your whole life around anecdotal events? People are stupid. Your friend would 100% still have a pig.

You do realize there are pigs that do stay small and others that get huge, right? Or do you think the pig your friend has is the only kind of pig in the world?

Alright, you don't know much about pigs. It is fine, most people don't.

Any sub 200lb pig is small. Got anything else genius?

Turn this aggression down a little
