As I mentioned in an earlier blog, there are a lot of groups out to get the sport of rodeo.  These same so called animal rights groups are fundraising factories, and have a history of spending their money on politics rather than the animal care they convey to the people who support them. Check out this article on one such group known as People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

Amanda Radke of Beef Daily recently posted an article on the HSUS with these interesting facts.

Another one of these well funded, misguided groups, is the Humane Society of the U.S. (HSUS) is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, spending less than 1/2 of 1% of its annual budget to assist animal shelters.

Think everyone in your circle already knows these facts? Think again. I’ve had countless people listen to me speak on this topic and later come up to me to share their frustrations over having just sent a check to the organization.We all need to continue to spread the word and educate our peers about the true agenda of HSUS, which is to abolish animal agriculture and eliminate meat, dairy and eggs from the American dinner table. The group plans to do this by using litigation and legislation to regulate farmers out of business and escalate the cost of food.
