Guest guest Posted November 11, 2002 Report Share Posted November 11, 2002 i received this from mike markarian from the fund for animals this morning in response to my question about the article i sent out last night regarding the cockfighting ban being held up: The cockfighters are filing desperate lawsuits, and they found some hillbilly judge in the must rural part of the state -- but the injunction only covers three counties, and we have a hearing on Nov. 18. The Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled in our favor twice unanimously, and will undoubtedly go our way again when we make it up there. The cockfighters spent a half million dollars on lawsuits trying to keep the initiative off the ballot, so this probably just means they will waste more money!! --------------------- " As long as people will shed the blood of innocent creatures there can be no peace, no liberty, no harmony between people. Slaughter and justice cannot dwell together. " ~Isaac Bashevis Singer " The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans anymore than black people were made for whites or women for men. " ~Alice Walker " Nonviolence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages. " ~Thomas Edison --------------------- Colleen A.
