Retarded legal games aside, I can't say I oppose protecting bees.
For sure we have to look out for the bees. But a court ruling doesn't magically make them a fish.
Obviously not, but equally obvious is that nobody is really saying bees are literally fish. They're just taking a lazy route to a goal to avoid rewriting old shit.
Wouldn't writing something specific for bees be the logical and better way? Off all things to be lazy about this one seems retarded. Follow the normal procedure and it will last a long time, now it can easily be contested because it turns out bees are not fish.
It's also judges taking political action again.
The law, as written, does not protect bees. In order for that to change, the legislature should change the law, not the courts "interpreting" bees to be fish.
