In the past two days, I have published two articles on "Beijing couple arresting Tian Luo Criminal Detention Incident", and soon these two articles have aroused widespread heated discussions, among which some netizens believe that capturing Tian Luo is originally illegal, and being detained is "deserved". In addition, there is a large number of people who believe that it is not illegal to catch field snails, and they should not be punished so harshly...
So is it illegal to catch field snails? Did the Beijing couple wrongfully arrest Tian Luo by being detained? Are they being punished too severely? Today we will briefly talk about this problem, I hope you can read it carefully, and help forward it, thank you sincerely!
I. Review of "Beijing Couple's Criminal Detention of Tian Luo"
Late one night not long ago, when the hat uncles in a certain place in Beijing were patrolling the local area, they caught two snail catchers surnamed Yu and one surnamed Yang on the spot, and found hundreds of kilograms of freshly caught field snails from the car of the snail catcher surnamed Yu, and only a small number of field snails were found from the snail catcher surnamed Yang, so the hat uncles brought the two snail catchers back to the bureau to investigate the specific situation.
In the face of evidence, the snail catcher surnamed Yu quickly confessed the fact that he caught field snails for sale, and he also confessed that his wife also participated in snail fishing, and he also confessed that the two of them are professional snail catchers, they can catch more than 1,000 pounds of field snails every night, and this year the two couples earned more than 40,000 yuan by catching field snails.
After a series of procedures, the couple surnamed Yu were taken into criminal detention, and it is said that they were later fined more than 40,000 yuan, while the other snail catcher surnamed Yang was only fined 500 yuan because of the small number of snails he caught.
2. Is it illegal to catch field snails? Has the couple been wronged? See what the experts say
After the couple snail catching incident, many netizens had a fierce discussion about it, among which the most discussed was "Is it illegal to catch field snails?" And "The couple was punished so heavily, were they wronged?" "These two topics. In order to clarify this question, I also asked an expert online, let's see what he said?
1Is it illegal to catch field snails? Relevant experts said: It is understood that 18 rivers in Beijing are within the scope of fishing ban all year round, which means that in Beijing, any fishing method other than fishing is illegal, especially for the use of electricity, poison, bombing and other prohibited methods, and may even constitute a crime. Experts also said: because field snails have the function of purifying water quality, it is also an indispensable part of the water ecological environment, so fishing field snails is also illegal fishing of aquatic products, which will also destroy the ecological balance.
Seeing this, some people may say that if people catch protected animals such as giant pandas and golden monkeys, it is normal to be sentenced, but why is it also a crime to catch field snails that can be seen everywhere? Could it be that shooting and killing a few wild mosquitoes and trampling on a few wild Xiaoqiang one day may also constitute illegal capture of wild animals?
In fact, this is not the case, not all wild animals can not be captured, but in addition to the protected wild animals we all know, those very common three-protected animals, such as toads, snakes, sparrows, etc. are also unable to be caught at will, once the capture of these three-protected animals to a certain number, this is also a criminal act, but also punished.
If we don't know which species are protected and which animals are not, we just need to remember that except for harmful species such as rats, cockroaches, and bed bugs, other wild animals may belong to protected animals and cannot be harmed, unless they are professionals and have professional uses
2. Have the "Beijing couples" been wronged? Was the punishment excessive?
The couple mentioned above, although they are fishing field snails, which is considered a small matter in the eyes of most people, there is no need to punish them severely, but what we need to know is that the amount they catch is very huge, they can catch more than a thousand catties every time, which is already a major case, so punishing them does not wronged them.
Secondly, some people believe that even if the couple captured a large number of snails, they should not take measures of criminal detention and "sky-high fines" to punish, which is suspected of excessive punishment. In fact, the couple are "habitual offenders", they have been catching field snails for a long time, and sold more than 40,000 yuan of field snails in a short period of time this year, which can be calculated that the number of field snails they caught is very large, so it is reasonable to detain them and issue them high-priced fines, and there is no excessive punishment.
In the end, this couple who harvested snails is still for profit and not early, they just want to make money, if they are really killing chickens and sheep, or doing normal business, where will there be so many rules and regulations to restrain them, where will they be punished so severely, so they are not unjustly punished, let alone punished too severely.
Conclusion: Here I want to remind you that now many areas are banning fishing and hunting all year round, you must not attack wild animals for the sake of appetite, or in order to make money, because if you do not pay attention to this, you may be suspected of illegal crimes, and the price paid is compared with a small profit. Once something happens to regret it, it will be too late, please remember!
