Ironically, did you know that it is a federal felony on the ATTENDANCE of a dog or cock fight?
As part of the 2014 Farm Bill, Congress added the following provisions:
"The newly enacted Animal Fighting Spectator Prohibition Act, which was included in the final 2014 Farm Bill, makes it a federal felony to knowingly bring a minor under the age of 16 to a dogfight or cockfight, punishable by up to three years in prison and a $250,000 fine, and a federal misdemeanor to knowingly attend a fight as a spectator, punishable by up to one year in prison and a $100,000 fine."
So, in addition to the 3 people arrested for hosting this event, why weren't the other 100 spectators arrested and charged under this federal rule? Were minors present??

The White House banned AP reporters from Air Force One and the Oval Office. The news service will continue to identify the Gulf of Mexico as “the Gulf of Mexico,” not the “Gulf of America”
