Last night news had another Mercy For Animals break-in of a veal operation in Ohio. This is the same group that staged the hideous Conklin Dairy video with their own undercover cameraman also performing animal cruelty acts.
When is the Public going to hang MFA? They are just bad news.
It will be interesting to see if HSUS also uses the MFA in their information. Part of the HSUS agreement with Ohio Gov Stickland is to recognize the Animal Welfare Board and not conflict with them. This is a hand-shake agreement. If HSUS uses the MFA information, that is the first step in HSUS going against the agreement with the Gov.
HSUS needs to make a public statement about the MFA break-in. If they agree with MFA; they are against the Ohio Agreement. If they are against MFA, they just put a wedge between another shadow Animal Rights organization.
The MFA spokesperson said on TV, “Go Vegan!”
Knowing what we know, the HSUS shoúld NEVER be allowed to participate in any animal welfare issues, and certainly not in legislation, not at any level.
Not ever.
Their agenda has nothing whatever to do with animal welfare, and since 98% of humanity’s well-being—both emotional and physiological—is dependent on their continued association with animals, it’s clear what *our* position on HSUS’ influence on the public should be.
We know HSUS is a vegan organization, and is not in any way friendly to animals. The vegan goal is to eliminate all animal products and animals from human lives. All ... food, clothing, companionship, exhibition, working animals. All.
Why on earth do we continue to tolerate their interference? Vegans constitute less than 1% of the population. Why are they permitted this influence?

Hard to believe they’ll actually go after BP.
Scary that they are talking about it, though, since their attorneys must be assuring them they have some kind of right to act legally on behalf of wildlife. I can’t see that being right, but if the court (and the court gets progressively more senile by the day) goes for it, the whole human race is in trouble.
But I think they won’t actually do it, because basically they are bullies. They only go after those who can’t afford to fight them. If that weren’t true, they’d be hard on the heels of Hunte Corporation, not hobby dog fanciers, and Tyson and Foster Farms and Smithfield, to name only a few - not the smallish farmers they are busy demonizing in the name of reforming agriculture.
Still - it’s a heads up, isn’t it?
