Oregon initiative would ban animal slaughter, breeding

IP13 would classify slaughter as aggravated abuse, redefine AI and castration as sexual assault.

you can't fix stupid, so by all means, let the stupid vote it in. Its actually pretty funny.

So unless Oregon bans the consumption of meat, its just hypocrisy isn't it? Its ok for others to slaughter the animal for them to eat but its not ok for them to dirty their own hands. Is Oregon in a race to overtake California as the State wit the largest holier than thou attitude?

Plus, they'll have to ban a series of things, such as hunting. Because otherwise, it'll become its not ok to kill animals for food, you can only kill them for fun. And what about pest control? Can't kill them either because its considered abuse?

Michelson said the initiative wouldn't ban animal agriculture entirely, nor would it abolish the sale of meat, leather or fur in Oregon. But livestock would have to die of natural causes before it could be used for food production, and "forced impregnation" of livestock would be outlawed, he said. Violators would face criminal prosecution.

ROFL.

OR and WA are both racing with CA to see who can get down the toilet bowel the fastest. It's sad to watch but a teachable time too. A lot, probably a large majority, do not believe this garbage but, they also will not lift a finger, or pen, to do anything. Then when some new law or rule goes in those who did nothing get mad that others did not do something.

Article also says, it also includes fishing*, hunting**, and presumably shooting vermin***.


* no more salmon/steel-head hatcheries
** we just get to pick up the deer that die from starvation
*** but, the Initiative's author is protecting himself and those that sign it

It's time for another asteroid to crash into the planet and reset the world.

The dinosaurs were ended for much less.

Except for theropods which evolved into birds. So. Certain dinos probably tasted like bird meat

Nothing surprises me at this point. Too many stupid people out there. So sad...that's why I'm packed up and ready to GTFO of here. As soon as the scumbags at the DMV give me my title and registration I've been waiting for since mid December 2020!!!!

It just so happens that Bill Gates has bought hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland and is now promoting eating insects. Purely coincidental, I'm sure.

 

[PenTurner]

Good thing we just bought a bunch of chickens, ducks and geese. Now I wonder how long it will be before Oregon decides that the homeless need to eat my birds.

 

[BBQ Guy]

If you notice that they didnt outlaw unnatural insemination. Somewhere there is a twisted and perverted sheep shagger that is rejoicing...

 

[BBQ Guy]

Beyond the comedy rich environment of the entire notion of the initiative. I say let them pass it.
The idiots that support this will hopefully starve to death while the sportsman of the state will survive from their shopping trips in the woods.

"We'll just keep putting it before voters," he said, "until a better world is here."

Face meet palm.

Really? I wonder how many OR voters won't even bother to read what the proposed initiative is actually about?

Well, when your 13 year old daughter identifies as a pony...

LOL...
Probably getting a lot of traction from the Vegan Community and Climate Change people of OR (Rrrrright, cow farts).

It's like non-gun owners telling gun owners how to live.

Well you herd Elmer into a pen and cut his jugular, it's only natural that's going to cause his death. Seen it happen. Beef. It's what's for dinner.

Roughly the same number who read the last gun control initiative.

Guess it's time to hang up my rat traps.
