Dear Editor:
One last comment on the passing of the Right to Farm. A sure way of separating out the chafe would have been to take dog breeders out of the equation of farming (too simple I suppose). This all started with Prop B and the passing of such to limit the breeding stock of dogs to 50 and morphed into limiting the number of cows, pigs, chickens etc. Now let's suppose the dog breeders were under their own agency and disassociated with farming and agriculture. Would there have ever been a Right to Farm bill? Something to think about.
I still believe in my heart of hearts Prop B was about dogs and the glut of poorly bred animals being dumped on society who in turn must deal with the problem brought about by breeders held unaccountable. I doubt there will ever be a glut of beef cows turned loose on society to become a burden and worry.
Imagine if you will the need for shelters for unwanted cows, pigs, etc. Silly as this sounds it is no more silly than people comparing the raising of farm animals to the raising of dogs for pets.
And yes there will always be the backyard breeders who are exempt from any laws, but one has to start with the biggest targets and I agree with the limit on breeding dogs in kennels. But then if you are a person who does not feel the love of companion animals and are not compassionate towards the plight of unwanted dogs in shelters you will probably not seek any solution by anyone for you don't see the problem.
As for HSUS being the most vile organization in the world, I suggest this is a point of view. I see them as a help, others see them as a threat, depends on your goals and politics. I only wish our legislators had devoted as much time to bringing factories and industry back to Missouri as they have in promoting farmers.
