[QUOTE="TedH71, post: 167936, member: 3233"] Their goal is to get EVERYONE to be vegan. They've already been able to get some bay pen contests shut down in Florida and soon will in Louisiana. Heck, we can't even have certain types of bay pen contests here in Texas..just strictly bayings no catch events. I happen to think catch events are exciting but now am resigned to going to bayings only. If you're wondering what I'm talking about, I'm talking about feral hog being bayed at by a trained hog dog in a pen. Apparently it's big money in some areas and some ranches are getting into it. Used to be we had catch events but then some PETA people had a cow and was able to get a law passed (without our knowledge til just TOO late!) that outlaws it or at least, is making people who hosts those event walk a very fine line. In Louisiana, they passed a similiar law last year and now we are only down to bay pen contests. In Florida, they completely outlawed both bay and catch events then when the Florida Seminoles had a contest over 3 thousand people attended! The PETA people went crazy since Indian country isn't required to follow every law except federal laws. They were able to scare the Seminoles into deciding NOT to host the event even though it was a great money maker. Too many outsiders are moving to Florida and ruining it for the old timers. As I said, their next goal is to outlaw eating meat of any kind which I'm opposed to since it's your own body and your own decision on what to eat. [/QUOTE]
