BEFORE  THE  BOARD

Music is   " The  Rose "

              Statements  presented to The Board as " Public Records "         
                                  
                      
       In the deepest belief of my soul I think that when The Creator of All created life it was his intention that all life in any form was to be held sacred and respected.  When I see an injustice of this belief as I have in the methods of State Board and the Veterinarian practices of cases before them, that they are supposed to monitor for ethics of only to protect the livelihood of, it becomes an issue that I feel all should know about and be concerned about. Thus the reason for the site of Bo Bo Bear and the information it contains. 
 
       Bo Bo was allowed no justice, as thousands of animals have not, and also blocked from other justice recourse by the Board, that recently has been called,  " Texas Elitist Veterinary Cartel “ in the equine dental practitioners law suit filed against the Texas State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners.   I give my utmost approval in their efforts, and agree with their statement's, in a nutshell, it's all about   MONEY  not skill.  Now whose livelihood is the Board invading? The Board thought they could by pass these skilled professionals by canceling a meeting in which they were supposed to be able to speak, well ignore them now, Oh Great Board. As you have been the general public for years.

 Patients Have Rights. . .

  The civil justice system belongs to all of us, and no one should be allowed to use it to keep the public in the dark. Nor use  a requirement, rule or outdated law, that keeps the strongest smoking-gun evidence out of public view. Some intrepid plaintiffs and their lawyers refuse to play the secrecy game.  

  When a few lawyers cut secret deals behind the public's back, what we don't know can and  does hurt us.  It is simply unacceptable as a matter of public policy to permit secret deals that conceal evidence of dangers to the public. Thus more information appearing on the Internet from victims of the system, preparing the general public for dissapointment in assuming these  designed government agencies  will be of protection or  assistance.                                                            

      The following is a statement of public record made and presented to the Board for their October meeting.   It is based on my experience, research, private investigators, as well as other sources.  The Board in order to ignore the public imposes a 3 minute time limit on our  few statements,  thus the reason this is short, it does not matter how intense the subject nor what the person defined as "general public" has gone to in personal efforts and travel expense to sit before the great wizards. Due to the fact I could not travel the long journey this time, this statement was presented through channels of the Board and may or may not have become part of written public record, as designed by their own rules.  I however am assuming, with hesitantly, that they did process my request, and it is my right to publish.

    { Note:  future statements to the board will be listed  below  this one as they occur, my first statement appears on The Board/A Closer Look  page, my objections to the methods of cases before them}            


Before The Board:

     I am Betty Garrity, I filed complaint # 06297 intentional destruction of an assistance animal. I spent one year in heavy research before submitting my formal complaint. My soul forever marked from the horror.

     My understanding was that,

   "The purpose of the Board of Veterinary Medicine is to promote public health, safety and welfare by safeguarding the public against incompetent, unscrupulous and unauthorized persons and from unprofessional or illegal practices by persons licensed to practice veterinary medicine. This profession is supposed to hold ethics and moral obligations, upon swearing of the oath to begin practice. 

    Apparently, this is not the case, my research shows most Vets do whatever they wish however they wish.  Many lifeless animal bodies in the wake of their desire to rule in any method they chose.

     During research, I discovered, the Boards methods of operation over the years,  I was not impressed.   Due to this I created a website for matter's of concern in these issues.     This web site went up long before I received the predicted and expected, normal form letter of dismissal, given to over 90% of complainants who have filed.  

I was not surprised, however I was appalled at the length this process went to for total protection of the vet filed against, .a process that does not even know what an assistance animal is or the laws that protectone nor follow it's own rules .  Along with " The Code of Silence amongVets" my case did not have a chance, no matter what I submitted.

    I have heard a lot about, minimum   standard of care,  this seems to mean, anything goes in the vet’s clinic that they wish, from surgery, medications, treatment by anyone employed, without consent, or knowledge of the client.  Abuse   rampant, inflicted for the enjoyment of the offender.

     The Board process protects their livelihood, as they refer to it.    The money keeps rolling in for the Vet, however he wishes to procure it, which funnels some of it back into the Board system. They then use a lot of it for mental & drug abuse programs for Vet's who shouldn't even hold a license. With the TVMA standing guard....  As the money turns, the public and the animals suffer. Complaint content ignored, dismissals standard fare.

     Perhaps the clue is, who in the system of The Board is paid a salary, and who donates their time, or  perhaps  it's in who received   a green package.   The answer to the low percentage rate of discipline actions lies somewhere, and like the curtain that protected the identity of   The Wizard of Oz,  this curtain will fall.

    Please visit Bo's web site, the rest of the world is.  It's called ;

     "In Loving Memory of Bo Bo Bear ". . He suffered a cruel needless death.  He was my baby.  Best friend. Constant helper, my lifeline, I loved him more than my own life.  To realize there is no Justice available in any form is unbelievable.

    The Creator of all things watched these events, how does he see your part in these facts.

Before The Board:

February 14th 2008

  I am Betty Garrity, I filed complaint # 06297 intentional destruction of an assistance animal. I spent one year in heavy research before submitting my formal complaint, beginning in June of 2005.

  There after filing, I have tried in vain to work with this Board on issues concerning this case, as well as others. The Board blocking every issue like a giant shield in an Ancient Trojan War, well trained in their craft of, protecting the Veterinarian’s charged, or their main concern, their source of income for one of their own, livelihood as they refer to it. Nothing should interfere with this goal,  life & death concern’s of the public concerning their animal and experience, an incidental. As we know, Troy burned.  However  you dragged the wooden horse into your Troy a long time ago,  known as the Apple of Discord, concerning your system.

  I find very few individuals on this Board who have real concern, most are more so concerned with who they are than what they are doing or their job consist of,  or a political future push.   Surprisingly there are some who sit here with grave concern’s. I commend those individuals, you know who you are, and are not.   For those not concerned if your problem is, you don't get paid to sit on this Board, I suggest you resign.

  In my research of  flaws in the system, are number one, "the investigators", exactly how are these people chosen, certainly not for their knowledge of animal or medical issues. I have read carefully each background and resume, and personally see very little that would qualify them for their position’s. I understand in the future, they will work from home or other area’s, with a raise.  I don’t find this strange, apparently they have never been monitored.. . . Yes,  I am qualified to give this opinion, as my professional background will indicate. 

  I call your attention to another very serious issue:   No one knows, what an assistance animal is nor the law’s that protect them, both State and Federal are very strong. They don’t seem to be enforced in any manner by anyone, or even noticed. This includes other law enforcement agencies, and the Animal Law division of the Texas State Bar. The following  few laws may be of future assistance to you should you ever decide to properly conduct an investigation.

 From The Office of The Governor ~ State of Texas:

 Protection of Assistance Animals:

An assistance animal and services from an organization that trains assistance animals can range from $10,000 to $60,000, upward depending on the service needed.

These animals guide people who are blind, alert individuals who are hearing impaired or pull people in wheelchairs, "also other assignments".  When an assistance animal is injured or killed, the person with a disability not only loses the benefits of the animal's assistance but experiences an economic loss.

An assistance animal is protected from assault, harassment, interference, death, or injury in any way from a person or an animal.

PENALTY FOR HARM OF ASSISTANCE ANIMALS:

Attacks (class A misdemeanor, fine up to $4,000), Injures (state jail felony, 180 days and up to $10,000), or Kills (felony of the third degree, 2 to 10 years and up to $10,000).  

These laws do not exclude a Vet. . . .

 To read the actual law go to    www.capitol.state.tx.us

 Assistance Animal Protections in House Bill 2881Penalty for Harm of Assistance Animals:

 Kills (felony of the third degree, 2 to 10 years and up to $10,000). Verify the actual law go to www.capitol.state.tx.us ~  

 Contact local law enforcement agencies to report violations of this law.

State Bar of Texas Animal Law Section:     

http://www.animallawsection.org/links.php

Texas Assistance Animal Protection Act:

H.B.ANo.A2881 AN ACT relating to prohibiting an attack on an assistance animal; creating an offense. BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: SECTIONA1.AASection 121.003(j), Human Resources Code, is amended to read as follows: (j)AAA person may not assault, harass, interfere with, kill, or injure in any way, or attempt to assault, harass, interfere with, kill, or injure in any way, an assistance animal.

     I also again refer you to the web site created for my assistance animal Bo Bo Bear, though destroyed recently it has been repaired and once again is on view for the world to see, with the issues of concern regarding the treatment of all animals and the conduct of those who control those issues. Many of these issues are international, along with Texas and the US, in general. I will put forward the best of my ability to change the way animals are treated in this world. I do not wish to stand before my creator one day in the future and try to explain why I did not, do you ?

    He created the animals before man, and put them into our care with instructions. These instruction’s are not being followed. .

    How fond are you of your own soul  .  .  .                                                                  

   Happy Valentine's Day !                     

                                         

 
Before The Board:
June 19th 2008

Good Morning;   I am Betty Garrity, I filed complaint # 06297 intentional destruction of an assistance animal. His case presented in fine detail for conviction of his demise, dismissed without review or proper procedure.

Apparently few connected with the Board know the laws connected with an assistance animal or really what one is. I assure you Bo was a very special life entity, a priceless one that can never be replaced. His life taken simply in the name of greed and revenge, his destructor protected by those of the same mire, how senseless.

Bo's web site has gained international attention in his issues with this Board, his job now even greater in esteem, than that he held in life.

To our new public board member, we support you fully, please do not be deceived by your new out numbered surroundings. We hope this is a mutual effort, and you truly represent the public.

Public advocates have noted the new appointees to the Board, flooding my office with  comments, bringing to my attention the fact that quite a few who sit on this Board enjoy the sport of kill hunting for enjoyment. This doesn’t surprise me, as one of the things the public advocates have been objecting to is that the Board protects the Veterinarians who kill for sport/fun and cover the crime by lies calling it medical, old age, staff error, whatever they can conjure. There also seems to be an imbalance of public members and protection vet members, a standard long term discrimination policy; instilled by past lesislative errors. Some members also have or do now sit on the TVMA and connected boards. Simple intelligence would suggest a red flag here, a certain imbalanced see-saw we shall say.

I note on the Texan's for Public Justice page publication, which highlights how appointments are given, it shows the secret is possible campaign donations. I guess this explains why many that were available or applied over time who would be well qualified, have possibly been by-passed. Also explains why one of the rules to applying is to be a registered voter, showing a record of vote. Those of you who bought your chair in one form or another, for a professional step up, know who you are and are not, we won't go into detail. It would also appear those chosen, as a rule have little time for Board duty, due to their own business, other responsibility, other statis boards, etc. No wonder dismissel of complaints are over 90%. The Public would have preferred all appointments over time were made because of qualifications, background, respect for animals, and public interest protection. Since this is what the Compact of Texas mistakenly defines this agency as "public protection".  I urge the public to keep up with this publication, it reviews many issues of Texas that the rest of the world questions as proper conduct of civilized humans.

Will Public Advocates give up trying to balance this see-saw to actually gain our equal rights within a system that was supposedly designed for our protection in the first place, hardly.  One day an actual public person will sit as president as it should be,  also fill other chairs of importance, only then will we actually be represented. Until then you are only an extension of your own TVMA, we are not fooled into thinking anything else, but nice try.

In my experiences with the Board, I've noticed that the Investigators have more control than anyone, this is in my belief not a good idea. It defeats the purpose of the Board in many directions. Like children on a playground with no rules, or supervision they run amuck with the power of freedom, in total control of the complaint.

It has also caught my attention from statements of the last meeting, that this Board feels it does not have the respect it thinks it is due. Perhaps I am just old fashioned as my silver hair will indicate, however respect in the past has always been something you earn not demand. This has been a fact from the beginning of time, the animal kingdom will validate this.

I close with the comment of, The Creator of All watches All, never think he does not.  Nothing is secret before him. The animals are his alone, we only borrow their presence as a previlege. Money and power are only earthly items, one day all that ends. What will your record say when it is read before him. He looks at respect, strongly, will you have earned his. . .

Thank you for your attention today.

"Only to the white man was nature a "wilderness"
and only to him was the land "infested" with "wild" animals and "savage" people. To us, it was tame. Earth was bountiful and we were surrounded with the blessings of the Great Mystery.  Not until the hairy man from the east came and with brutal frenzy heaped injustices upon us and the families we loved was it "wild" for us. When the very animals of the forest began fleeing from his approach, then it was for us that the "wild west" began."

Luther Standing Bear,
Chief of the Oglala Sioux Tribe (1868-1939)
