Hi Gang. Tom here. I see many of the posts on the subject of PETA are from all over the eastern US. Me ? I'm in sweet ole' Virginie' actually native born. And here we have a "Right to Hunt Law", and if I'm not mistaken, shortly after the latter came into effect, a "Right to Fish law" was also enacted.
These make it illegal to interfere with either of the above two pastimes, and those guilty of interfering with hunters and anglers may and will be arrested for same.
Ha ! You guys should've seen the PETA nuts here last summer. They stood outside a Va Beach Furrier's store "NAKED", only covered by their signs protesting the fur business.
And we also have a fishing tourney in Norfolk (right below their main office on
the Elizabeth River) where by all anglers MUST BE CLAD IN FUR to participate...
Ha ! It's sponsored by one of the local radio stations.
And that slogan for PETA = People Eating Tasty Animals ? Well, Oceans East Tackle shop - two locations in Va Beach, sells tee-shirts with that logo - and more.
Later folks............
Tom
