Two by Two, Day by Day, the Animals march out of our Lives

These past several days have been a heartbreaking punch in the gut to those of us who love to experience the magic and joy that is interactions with animals.

There has been the ongoing saga of Tiger Ridge in Ohio. I've already covered the illegal raid and state sanctioned abuse of the Tiger Ridge animals here and here.   Since that time a whistle-blower has come forward to confirm that yes, indeed the Ohio Department of Agriculture is full of bumbling incompetents who have injured these innocent animals.

In Chicago, animal rights terrorists recently burned down a horse barn and in Reno, Nevada, they attempted to firebomb a KFC.  The FBI says its investigating but are they really?   After all, they have never caught the terrorists who fire bombed 14 tractor trailers in California.   The FBI is nothing more than a gutless hollow blowhard when it comes to investigating and prosecuting animal terrorists.  They investigate and prosecute less than half of 1% of terrorist crimes committed under the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act (AETA).  I should know.  I filed an AETA claim against a Virginia animal rights terrorist in 2012 and the FBI has never even answered my letter.

Then the heart stopping news that Ringling Bros Circus is ending a 100 year tradition and getting rid of their elephants. Once this happens, they will no longer be the Greatest Show on Earth. They'll be just another show while the animal rights front attacks their other animals.

At the same time I've been reading Killing Keiko, the newly released book about how "Free Willy," died in agony.  Yes, Free Willy died.  Life is not a Hollywood movie.  People are finally understanding that the fraudulent global warming threat is nothing but a money making scam for environmentalists yet they still buy the snake oil the animal rights front is selling when these two movements are nothing more than two heads of the same monster.

Animal shelters and rescues all across America are taking "requests" for dog breeds and once they have enough for a particular breed, they raid a dog breeder, steal all their dogs, make up a fake story about a "puppy mill" and sell off the animals to their waiting lists.  All tax-free profit.  While at the same time, a number of purebred dog breeds in America face extinction.

Then the news this morning that a beautiful Irish Setter was deliberately poisoned at the top Cruft's dog show in England. The same show at which a PETA supporter once again illegally protested in the show ring.  This isn't the first time that dog shows have been attacked and dogs harmed by terrorists.  Instead of outrage over the Setter's brutal death, tens of thousands have signed a petition to express their outrage that the Best in Show winner picked up her dog by its tail.   A completely legal, normal, and acceptable practice.  The tail of a terrier is supposed to act as a handle, that's how it was built.

There's only so much bad news a person can take. Only so many times in which I say enough. I have no sympathy for the "good people" out there who simply don't understand that THEY are the ones responsible for the end of animals in our lives.

The ones who contributed to The Free Willy campaign and contributed to the horrific death of a whale.  You are responsible for Keiko's death.

The ones who contributed to the end of elephants in the circus by passing along an endless $25 million dollar campaign of lies about the Ringling elephants.  You are responsible for the death of a 120 year old business and the unemployment of its staff.  

The ones who are protesting the act of picking up a terrier by his tail for a few brief seconds to lift him off a table instead of protesting the brutal death by poisoning of the setter.   You are responsible for the fact that numerous purebred dog breeds are facing extinction. 

Then there's the Ohio Farm Bureau who deliberately colluded with terrorists to sell out Ohio's exotic animal owners and pet breeders. I hold the Ohio Farm Bureau partially responsible for the tragedy at Tiger Ridge.  When you sleep with the enemy, don't be surprised that you wake up with fleas. 

Author Jon Katz has put out a three part series on the Ringling news and what it means to all of us. I dare you to read his words and not cry.  He says everything that a repressed Minnesotan like me can't put into words and say.  I dare to you start with Weep for the Animals and Orwell, Horses, Elephants and continue on to his Joyless Nation.   He puts it in blunt terms.  

You are the one killing the animals.   Until you stand up against terrorism and the false science of the animal rights movement, the blood of Willy, the horses, the elephants, and a myriad of others is on your hands. 

Stand up before its too late and there are no more animals in our lives.  I dare you.  As for me, I'm going to the circus before its all over.
