Oregon Ballot Initiative Would Criminalize Hunting, Livestock Slaughter, Even Pest Control

This almost seems like it would go in the "Conspiracies and Paranormal" section. Just when you think the liberals can't get any crazier, Oregon sets a new standard.


Oregon ballot initiative would criminalize hunting, livestock slaughter, even pest control

Hunting, breeding livestock, even pest control would be all but illegal under a ballot initiative backed by Oregon animal rights activists and opposed by incensed Oregon farmers.

The proposal, Initiative Petition 13, would lift virtually all exemptions to state laws related to animal abuse, neglect and sexual assault. The vast majority would ban common farming practices from artificial insemination used in targeted breeding and killing live animals for meat. Farm animals could only be raised for rodeos, milk or fur and could be spayed, neutered and castrated.

In addition, IP 13 would further restrict hunting, fishing, trapping and “intentional injury” of an animal that would bring undue suffering. Research labs would be prohibited from experimenting on nonhuman mammals, birds, fish, reptiles and amphibians. All of the activities listed would carry criminal penalties.

That is one reason why so much of the state would like to secede and join Idaho, a state much more sane.

 

@Beth Gallagher

The "idiots in charge" are running out of ways to generate ever-more revenue through passage of laws. Hunting, fishing, trapping, and "intentional injury" are all part and parcel involving DEATH. Thus, death is now undue suffering.......therefore, according to government edict no living thing should ever die.

What utter bullshit society has become enervated with!

This is all about our Governor Ms. Adolph H. Brown's hatred of Eastern Oregon and response to our several efforts to recall her. This is also her response to the fact in some EO towns very few wore masks and there were no covid deaths and very few cases none requiring hospitalization. We openly defied her orders. She sent a select bunch of OHSU students in to do covid testing and studies and what do you know, covid was on the rampage. A guy killed when he lost control of his motorcycle doing 80 was listed as a covid case as the student found he tested positive for covid as he lay dead in the morgue.

Within a week of the busloads of migrant farmworkers arriving, cases and deaths skyrocketed. I am convinced that these migrants were tested and found to have covid and bused here on purpose. It was all just too convenient and transparent. The timeline tells the story loud and clear.

Also, one small EO town's mayor has announced her bid for the governorship in 2022. Being a former rancher and gun-toting patriot, I doubt the Oregon Republicans' big shots will choose her.

 

I doubt that the bill will go very far but that won’t stop PETA from introducing more bills and / or suing anything associated with ranches, poultry farms and the fishing industry just as they have for decades.

The one thing they have in their favor though (besides their indefatigable movements promoting vegan-ism) is a more recent involvement with the global warming initiatives. By coupling with the climate change theorists they’ve opened another door for more law suits and more proposed bills throughout the world.

Loading up the courts is their way of saying, “I’m involved”.

 

Oregon should concentrate more on stopping violence among their people. the riots and shootings, the looting and destroying of property.

 

I’ll have to look but I don’t think there’s anything in the PETA movement description about people killing people, just people killing animals.

Maybe they should think about that for a moment. If they promoted people killing people then there would be less people to eat farm animals. Fewer people eating farm animals means that fewer animals would be slaughtered hence less need for so many animals thus bankrupting the rancher, fisherman and the poultry farmer.

 

you need more coffee Bobby. I meant instead of worrying about the slaughter of animals for food, the state should concentrate on the more serious crimes that have made the headlines.

 

Not Oregon but PORTLAND and the governor and her crime buddies!!!! There is no rioting and little crime in Eastern Oregon. We have a strong police presence. When they bused in BLM with Antifa to protect them, they were met in 6 towns by hundreds of armed citizens of all races. There were even some old-school Democrats out with the Patriots. The cops told the little punks the first time you harass anyone even by blowing a bullhorn in their face, you will be arrested. If you spray them with bear spray and they shoot you, you will be arrested if you live. Most EO folks will defend themselves and their families and friends. While 300 armed citizens were on one side of the highway, the BLM sign-waving side had four unkempt obese young braless ladies wearing skimpy, overtight shorts and tops and yelling profanities. Only the brain-dead news reporter gave them any notice. Antifa got back on their bus and headed home to mama.

The thing to realize about Oregon is that although Portland and liberal strongholds rule, they are just a fraction of the state's land, very small in square miles, but heavily populated and very polluted with a severe street people problem. There is absolutely nothing environmentally friendly about Portland. It is a filthy racist city controlled by light-skinned liberals and hard core Democrats that live in multi-million dollar houses in the suburbs.

 

But Portland is in Oregon.. perhaps my generalization on the subject was to big

 

Coffee is under way.
Now, so far as the more serious crimes in Oregon goes, I don’t think it’s a crime to riot, pillage and burn stuff down anymore. Crime looks more like the state’s new approach to athleticism. Burn a building and lose fat at the same time!

Edit: Okay, “Portland’s” new pass time and athletic program.

 

That is sick Bobby Cole...
