Where do they come from? Mostly from the burbs and the better off city areas. But urban, all the way. I'm glad it outrages you, but does it scare you enough to galvanize you to action? State by state they are very methodically getting anti-hunting, anti-trapping, anti-fishing, anti-farming, and animal cruelty laws passed. My state of Maryland has been their target for several years now. We're probably going to lose eventually because lots of folks claim to be outraged, but trying to get them to write to their congressional critter to oppose these draft laws is like pulling teeth.

We've won twice, two years running, but it's a heck of an uphill battle. Make no mistake, the animal rights leaders are sharp.

He's darn hard to fight. Outrage is nice, but do you actually do anything to fight back?

The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
