N.C. Pork getting a pounding in the press

July 10th,2010
The N.C. Pork industry that killed the puppy mill bill is getting it’s karmic retribution in the press. Most recently in a scathing News &Observer editorial,“Dogs and Hogs“,stating that “Rarely does light shine on the dark side of legislative lobbying quite so brightly.”Then goes on to explain the flaw of the Pork’s industry “slippery-slope”argument that the HSUS’s ultimate goal of turning the world vegetarian. Plus some other pointed criticisms of Pork’s disastrous environmental legacy. Unfortunately the opinion piece did not mention that the largest environmental spill in North Carolina history was caused by an industrial hog farm in 1995,when a hog waste lagoon burst spilling 22 million gallons of waste in the New River.

We need to keep the Pork Industries feet to the fire. They ARE feeling the heat from the many excellent letters that already have been published. Big Pork in N.C. is destroying our environment,walking all over North Carolina citizens and controlling our legislature.  We must take a stand!!!  With Pork in control all of our efforts to improve the lives of the animals in N.C. will be thwarted.

Please write a letter to the editor of your local North Carolina newspaper today!

Or write to the News &Observer.
Thank you!!
