He does not own pets (it is slavery), he's a vegetarian and an animal extremist. His funding for animal rights law school is no secret. I think we're very likely to see more in the way of the sort of legal help used for helping PeTA get out of their recent animal killing and dumping spree in North Carolina. They got a handslap for "littering". Research labs are under attack by ALF and they certainly get some legal help as needed as well. Interesting in light of the medical issues Bob has had. Generally Animal Rights advocates are okay with animal testing that helps "them".

A brilliant bit by yet another celebrity regarding biomedical research- "To those people who say, `My father is alive because of animal experimentation,' I say `Yeah, well, good for you. This dog died so your father could live.' Sorry, but I am just not behind that kind of trade off." Bill Maher, PETA celebrity spokesman

Anyway, Bob loves being in the limelight and having power. He now has more time to nurture projects that from his level of the world, need fixing.

He was successfully sued for millions for harassment in separate law suits by at least half a dozen different women.

Celebrity doesn't (or shouldn't?) give anyone immunity to the law but Bob gets more respect than Paris does. He's got money, he knows how to manipulate people. He is also behind why on the eighth writing of AB 1634, just about anything goes. The main thing is he hates to lose. People see him behind the bill, everything goes out the window. They no longer have to read and comprehend the bill. The hero of "The Price is Right" makes it 'all good'.

I don't even want to go there but we either actively choose our politicians and their supporters whose ethics will lead our children into the future or sit back and let it happen.
