[00:00:00] It is the week of Christmas and I always [00:00:02] try to do a video that is a little more [00:00:04] light-hearted for this week and there's [00:00:07] a news story that the mainstream media [00:00:09] has been completely ignoring. You guys [00:00:12] know that I love pets. So, if you have a [00:00:15] dog or a cat, go ahead and call your [00:00:17] pets over and watch this video because [00:00:20] this is something you need to know [00:00:22] about. [00:00:39] Something I cover a lot on this channel [00:00:41] is the weaponization of the government [00:00:43] against innocent people. This is a true [00:00:46] story. [00:00:48] Somewhere in the south of France, there [00:00:50] lives a cat named Remy. You heard me [00:00:54] right. It is the same name as the main [00:00:56] character from the Disney movie [00:00:58] Ratatouille. [00:00:59] Although I think this Remy is cuter. [00:01:02] Remy has been charged as a criminal and [00:01:04] taken to court. Rey's owner's neighbor [00:01:07] has accused him of trespassing. The [00:01:10] allegations include urinating on a [00:01:12] duvet, defecating in the neighbor's [00:01:14] garden, and leaving paw prints on [00:01:16] Stuckco. The neighbor considers this [00:01:19] vandalism. [00:01:20] Remy has been smeared in the press and [00:01:22] is now being referred to as Remy the [00:01:25] criminal. Okay, I have to stop here and [00:01:28] say that this neighbor is being a little [00:01:31] ridiculous. [00:01:33] How is leaving paw prints outside your [00:01:35] house vandalism? And if he does not want [00:01:38] his duvet peed on by cats, how about not [00:01:41] leaving it outside? [00:01:44] And just look at him. He looks so sweet [00:01:46] and innocent. He looks to me like a [00:01:50] really good boy. Well, the case went to [00:01:52] trial this year and the judges declared [00:01:54] Remy guilty. The owner was fined $1,250, [00:02:00] which is equivalent to $1,445. [00:02:04] Not only that, the judge sentenced Remy [00:02:07] to house arrest. He ordered the cat to [00:02:10] be locked inside for the rest of his [00:02:12] life and never be let outside again with [00:02:14] ongoing fines for future violations. Am [00:02:18] I the only person who finds this crazy? [00:02:21] Some cats are meant to be outdoor cats. [00:02:25] You cannot keep them inside. Remy is [00:02:28] already sterilized and neutered, so we [00:02:30] know the owner is being responsible and [00:02:32] taking care of him. This neighbor sounds [00:02:35] insane. [00:02:37] How can you live in a city and not [00:02:39] expect cats to walk through your [00:02:41] backyard? But the craziest thing about [00:02:43] the situation is that I believe Remy is [00:02:46] being falsely accused. [00:02:49] It turns out that there are other cats [00:02:51] in the neighborhood, including another [00:02:53] orange cat that looks like Remy. [00:02:57] How does this neighbor know that it was [00:02:58] Remy that peed on his duvet and not the [00:03:01] other orange cat? [00:03:04] I think this $1,400 fine is ridiculous. [00:03:08] $1,400 is a lot of money. You cannot [00:03:12] just sue people when cats walk through [00:03:14] your yard. This guy is looking out his [00:03:17] window and every time he sees a cat, he [00:03:19] says, "Give me my $1,400. [00:03:23] I deserve $1,400. I saw a cat [00:03:26] trespassing." The case gets worse [00:03:29] because now the neighbor has sued again, [00:03:31] claiming that Remy escaped from his home [00:03:33] and came into his yard again. [00:03:36] This time, the owner could receive an [00:03:38] additional €2,000 fine or €2,312. [00:03:45] How does this neighbor know it is not [00:03:47] the other orange cat? [00:03:50] This second trial was supposed to happen [00:03:51] this month. I've not heard about it, so [00:03:54] maybe it got delayed. In the meantime, [00:03:57] this cat is suffering. The owner says he [00:04:01] has gained weight and has become [00:04:03] aggressive. It's as if he's been [00:04:05] sentenced to house arrest, a kind of [00:04:07] imprisonment and double punishment. [00:04:11] This is outrageous. [00:04:13] What is the judge in this case thinking? [00:04:16] It sounds like this neighbor is just a [00:04:19] jerk. [00:04:21] I think this neighbor should be thrown [00:04:23] in prison for abusing the court system. [00:04:26] A judge is supposed to apply some sanity [00:04:29] and logic in a case. This case is [00:04:32] setting a precedent for every pet owner [00:04:35] in France. [00:04:37] Now people can sue you because your cat [00:04:40] left paw prints on their stucco. [00:04:44] Your cat can be accused of pooping in [00:04:46] someone's garden even though there are [00:04:48] many other cats in the neighborhood. [00:04:51] This judge is making it impossible to [00:04:54] own a pet in France because no one will [00:04:56] be able to afford the fines. And I have [00:04:59] to also say that I find it disgusting [00:05:01] that this is what the court system in [00:05:03] France is being used for, to attack [00:05:06] cute, innocent kittens. [00:05:10] With all the problems in France right [00:05:11] now, this is what the courts are [00:05:14] spending their time on. What about the [00:05:16] massive immigration problems? What about [00:05:19] the rising violent crime? [00:05:22] What about political corruption? But no, [00:05:26] rather than look into any of those [00:05:27] things, they want to go after this poor [00:05:30] cat. I don't know if this judge realizes [00:05:33] how important pets are. Our law should [00:05:36] be embracing healthy pet ownership, not [00:05:39] penalizing it. [00:05:41] I'm going to show you a video, and I [00:05:43] would give this to the judge as evidence [00:05:46] of how important pets can be. [00:06:04] Oh, thanks mom. [00:06:08] >> Thank you. [00:06:10] Thank you. [00:06:12] >> That's okay. [00:06:15] >> Thank you. That's all right, darling. [00:06:18] >> That's okay, mate. [00:06:23] Little kitten. [00:06:31] >> You happy? [00:06:36] >> Oh, baby. [00:06:41] >> Why is he crying? Cuz he's happy. He's [00:06:44] overwhelmed. [00:06:48] >> This is your little friend. [00:06:50] It is Christmas. I hope this judge has a [00:06:53] change of heart and does not take away [00:06:55] the joy of pet ownership from the people [00:06:58] of France. Now, I want to hear from you.
