The Future Rat Problem in Everett

 In Seattle they "took care of" the stray cat problem, reducing the stray population to almost nothing compared to other areas. In downtown Seattle there are virtually no stray cats at all.

But there is something that took over, two pests that carry diseases that can infect and even kill humans. Rats and pigeons, so many of them.

The pigeons are easy to spot, there are thousands and their fecal matter contains enough worms to kill off pretty much any wildlife. Not that any other type of wildlife is even possible in downtown Seattle, but the pigeons won't stay there, they'll spread out and infect surrounding areas until they've decimated all wildlife in western Washington.

The rats in downtown Seattle own the streets, at night you'll see them rummaging around the alleys. With rats they don't all travel at once, if you see one there are at least a dozen in the nest.

Scouts go out to get food and bring it back to the nest, most communal animals behave this way. As a species we learned that we cannot maintain the rodent population, so we adopted a species that would be perfect for reducing the pests, we call them cats.

But because we didn't want to accept the fact we were destroying the environment we started blaming the cats and dogs for the vanishing wildlife. In reality it is our own presence that is devastating the other populations, and only a few species can live in the environment we've created for us.

Of those species, only cats and dogs do carry very few illnesses that can infect us, the others can wipe out our populations in a matter of a few years. The irony being that many of the animals we've pretty much destroyed would prey on cats and dogs, coyotes, eagles, falcons, wolves, bears, etc.

Where cats and dogs can thrive, no other life can thrive but us, meaning we're the ones who drove out or destroyed the wildlife. Our very presence is has shaped the environment, and given we need wildlife it is time we accept the fact that nature gave us life which can live with us and embrace them.

The cat and dog, nature's response to our devastation of the wildlife, and we're destroying them now. In Everett I am starting to see rats who do not fear humans, rummaging for food without fear at all.

If you see one, there are a dozen in a nearby nest, and for every one you don't see there are several in the shadows watching you. This is the future of Everett, another rat infested diseased city just like downtown Seattle.

The scam of neutering and spaying is going to cost us our world, as we vacate these environments we have ruined it would take hundreds of years for them to stabilize and be reclaimed by nature. Given the lack of larger animals, without cats and dogs becoming the new organisms in that environment, many cities would never recover wildlife.

In nature the only constant is change, we've caused a lot of change and it's time we allow the change to just happen instead of swinging to the extremes that created the problems already. We will be replaced by rats, then when they go extinct because we're no longer here there will just be plants, we've already started a great reset of of the planet.

False Causes - Breed Specific Legislation

There are many instances where statistical data is misused, from vaccines to GMO foods, and breed specific legislation. Speaking on the recent trends against pit bulls, though in the past it was dobermans and even chihuahuas.

Cities across the country are banning breeds based on one reported statistic, a statistic that changes every few years. If they were smart they'd look at the trends, a dog with the highest reported incidents of bites gets banned one year, a few years later it's a different dog. The previous dog bans are lifted and behold, that dog does not go back to the top spot again.

If breed had any real impact on it the bans would only have an effect when enacted, but we see that, in reality, they do not. Someone once said that when you observe something, the act of observing it alters it. This is the most probable reason the statistics keep changing.

Let's use an example we can all understand, the occurrence of autism. Autism was thought to be very rare in the past, due to a lack of attention on the subject only a small portion of the population knew much about it and the symptoms are usually difficult to spot.

So everyone just thought it was as rare as a human born with a tail. Medical scientists raised the awareness of autism as an attempt to garner more funds for research, suddenly almost everyone knew the disease existed, and the research got funding.

With the extra funding methods for diagnosing it improved drastically, combined with the now heightened awareness, more people with the illness were discovered. It was reported, and thus recorded, far more than before. A bunch of jerks then used this increased reporting as a scare tactic to gain money and fame.

It worked because people are panicky when they don't know the facts, and when in a panic they are easily swayed by pretty faces. Dog breed bans have also had the same kind of leeches, feeding on the panic they create by using a very simple phenomenon to create the appearance of a problem which does not really exist.

Statistics, for the most part, should only be read by scientists until the general population learns what confirmation bias means, and the media is banned from reporting false causes. Any animal, even the human animal, can be dangerous if they feel threatened. Any animal, even a rodent, can seriously harm the perceived threat.

Every dog is a pit bull, and every human is a pit bull as well. You just need to slant the statistics by altering the perception of the general public in a way to change what they notice.
