I am glad we are getting out there. Don't know how the opposition is doing?

Unfortunately, they have raised 2.7 million dollars and have TV ads going. The Committee to Support Greyhounds has raised only 75K. I know the NGA started a PAC a couple of weeks ago and the bigger greyhound organizations donated 300K to them, but this got started to late to get TV ads made and on the air. Not sure if there was a problem getting the NGA PAC going or not.
The CTSG people have done a great job with so little. They know some people that have helped out a lot, but these people can't get TV ads with so little money.
We'll see what happens in less than two weeks.

Of what I have seen, everyone is working so hard. I just wish I could be there to help. I saw CJ did another TV interview. That is good. I also heard from someone on FB, early polls has the Yes vote at 50% but how could they know that?

Remember they need 60 percent to win so 50 percent would be great considering all the money they have spent.
There was a reported attempted break-in at one of the kennels. Checking around I was told it was Sanford Orlando and then I saw though they parked the car up the street we supposedly have security pictures of the car and plate.
Don't know if they actually got into the compound or not.
Then I was told two days ago two people tried to get into the Jacksonville compound, but were unsuccessful. Crazy times, but we are dealing with the extreme ALF member animal rights activists who will do anything to win. Remember at one time ALF used fire to get their point across and destroyed a number of buildings along the way.
This is my siggie on another site.
“What is objectionable, what is dangerous about extremists is not that they are extreme, but that they are intolerant. The evil is not what they say about their cause, but what they say about their opponents.”

I hope the security is on high alert at the kennels. I like your siggie quote. I hate these extreme activists. I always wonder how they got this way?

I talked to someone at SO and was told they increased security.
How they started this way is you have to have a certain mentality that all animals should be free to roam. These people are also for the end of animal ownership and have said they are okay with no more cats of dogs being bred.
ALF is the extreme and they have more members than you would think. Fire is their friend and using it is never a problem. Getting arrested is okay for their cause.

I hope more people head to poll with vote no signs and bringing a greyhound helps. I heard Pam Bondi was on the 5 spreading more lies.
