Our dear friends, your dream of owning a ferret has indeed been crushed. The New York City Board of Health announced this morning, after a scheduled vote, that the New York ferret ban, in practice since 1959, will continue. New York Times reporter Mike Grynbaum broke the news on Twitter, and ferret-lovers everywhere bowed their heads in distress. But of course, if you feel anything like former Mayor Rudy Giuliani on the topic, you're probably jumping for joy. Let's take a moment to reminisce about the ridiculousness that was Giuliani's ferret rant back in 1999, where he passionately attempted to school a ferret-rights activist on the fundamental stupidity of owning a ferret. Don't remember? Just hit play.
