Freed My Shovelnose Cat Finally

[LisaLQ]

However much you guys want to defend him (god knows why) what he did was illegal. If his fish kills the other fish in that pond (if there are any in there), that's destruction of property. Why defend such stupid actions?

Maybe he asked permission, if you ask someone to graffiti on your wall its not their fault, and its not illegal. If you invite someone in to your house you cant accuse them of breaking in.
He's already said there are no fish in there anyway, certainly nothing of any value. You said "hows he going to eat" and then say "he might eat al the fish in there" and also people are saying "he might breed and the species might become pests like the GALS" and then at the same time people are saying "he gonna die", so what exactly is your opinion? anyway, there are no fish in there.

I neevr said he'd breed like GALS I said the boy who released them thought he'd be doing no harm either. Who knows what effect this will have on the wildlife - he might be lucky, it might be nothing at all - but even so - that doesn't make it right. If there were repercussions (disease wise or something), would we all be saying it's no big deal then? If someone does report him (as someone should), and he is arrested/fined/banned from keeping fish - is it no big deal then? What about his other fish if he's banned from keeping them - will they go in the pond too? Or end up poorly housed somewhere? There's more repercussions possible than just eating some fish in a pond.

One thing I can agree with though is that it has all been said now - whether or not he learns from his mistake who knows? I certainly hope so.
