Convincing Provo: "Licinse to Kill" Mice

Dear Honorable Mayor of Provo,
With the oncoming winter, I feel it important to address the rights of mice around the city. With the soon ensuing winter and snowfall, many of the city's mice population will seek refuge in homes, barns and shacks of local citizens. The problem is that these mice do not find a very welcome refuge. Traps, are weapons and while it is alright to have them, citizens should take a class about mouse appreciation and obtain a license before they kill. When killing other animals, we need to obtain a license and mice should have the same rights as other animals. I urge the city to think more considerately about our scurrying friends. Thank you
