If you want to see the future under Democrat rule, look to the Left Coast, where liberals are solidifying control. In Oregon, an impending ballot initiative may make providing for a normal human diet into a crime.
IP 13 will be on the ballot next fall. It eliminates exceptions to animal cruelty laws that are required for any number of activities that have been key aspects of human existence since before recorded history, including animal husbandry, hunting, and fishing. According to John M. Simpson of the law firm Duane Morris LLP, it would make any injury to an animal that results from the following activities a criminal offense:
• Treatment of livestock transported by owner or common carrier.
• Rodeos or similar exhibitions.
• Commercially grown poultry.
• Use of good animal husbandry practices.
• Slaughtering of livestock in compliance with state law.
• Fishing, hunting and trapping otherwise lawful under state law.
• Wildlife management practices under color of law.
• Lawful scientific or agricultural research or teaching that involves the use of animals.
• Reasonable measures to control of vermin or pests.
• Reasonable handling and training techniques.
The only exceptions allowed to animal cruelty laws would be for self-defense or veterinary practices.
Even producing leather may soon be illegal in Oregon, unless the hide comes from an animal that has died of natural causes.
