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.

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