The whacko PETA-types and misguided vegans in California have placed an initiative on the November ballot to wit: Standards for confining farm animals. The initiative portends to set standards to allow animals to be ‘comfortable’ for the majority of the day.

What it actually does is drive the livestock business out of the state. It will result in a loss of revenue and allow for Mexican imports to bring more of their diseased livestock into the markets in California. I look at it as an analogy to the whacko ammunition stamping laws whose actual intent is not to solve crimes but to drive firearms from the state.

I paraphrased a popular bumper sticker with Proposition 2 in mind . . .
