Ohio Issue 2

With election day fast approaching, I want to make sure everyone is aware of the implications of Ohio Issue 2. Regardless of which button you decide to press, please educate yourself about this Issue. Many of us are being bombarded with pro-Issue 2 radio ads, TV commercials, etc... factory farms have much money to spend on this advertising. The following video/link will explain the opposing viewpoint much better than I can:

Thanks for your consideration.

"factory farms have much money to spend on this advertising"

Prove that's where the money is from.

And that ad is a laugh.

It's not about government control Jeepmaker, it's about the control of the Humane Society. Screw them !

Who the hell wants the Humane Society dictating policies for livestock farms? Those radical idiots want to ban beef consumption in total. I voted YES to keep the HSUS out of the picture.

I work with a pig farmer and asked him about the issue. He advised that HSUS got laws passed on California and Michigan that so restrict livestock farming that most are getting out of the business. Every livestock farmer is in favor of this law.

I hope it passes.
