Whether you are celebrating or mourning the results of the Presidential election today, we dog people need to be very afraid. It looks like Prop 2 passed in California, which is the beginning of the end of animal agriculture in that state. The ballot initiative for animal rights issues was brought to a high art form by Wayne Pacelle when he destroyed the pork industry in the Florida. His success there was the reason HSUS hired him. People in cities have no idea what animals want, and they believe what they see on TV over the advice of animal owners and veterinarians. I assure you, we dog owners are in Wayne's sights, and California will be the battleground. What's even more frightening is that, per the morning news, New Mexico's Governor Richardson, one of the biggest proponents of draconian animal laws, is on the short list for a cabinet position. We are doomed. Information shared by Peggy ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2008.
