Sorry... if you object to raising minks for their fur, releasing them en masse into the wild so they can die far, far earlier and disrupt the rest of the ecosystem at the same time is *NOT* the way to do it. Legislate your way into it.

At this point, they're just common criminals. Vandals. Slugs who should pay for the damages they caused and spend some time in the local prison to think about the impact of their actions. Preferably with a cellmate who's 6'3", 235 pounds, and named Bubba...

I know it's a slippery slope, but the same kind of irrational thinking can lead people to releasing cows, chickens, pigs, and any other kind of animal. It can also lead to destroying almost anything else - how many industries can you think of that *don't* have an impact on the environment?
