Denver Rejects Ban on Circus Animals

Dan Hanley of Denver for Cruelty Free Circuses said supporters were pleased with the results.

"Right now we're just reflecting on the fact that we brought the huge cruelty abuses from Ringling Bros. to the center," he said. "We think we've raised a huge awareness level that was a voice for the voiceless."

Hello McFly? HELLO, you lost 2-1! This is like a baseball hitter striking out and then calling it a victory because he "took some heat off" the pitches for the other batters. Spinmasters....

Agreed. My impression of this effort from the very first was that it is much like the gun control debate.

In the gun control debate the anti-gun whackos see that a tiny minority of those who possess guns misuse them and conclude from this that all guns should be banned.

In the circus debate the anti-circus whackos see that a few circuses misuse their animals and conclude from this that all use of animals in circuses should be banned.

Such idiocy. When was it that we, as a nation, completely lost all common sense?

Hunting Tip: Calling All Moose

Moose calling can get confusing to some, but cow calling is your main tool when moose hunting. If you go out and buy moose calls I would say you're wasting your money unless it is the birch bark cone. I find most store bought moose calls sounding worse than puffing a grunt your hands to make the call. You can roll up a piece of birch bark in a cone shape to use as a call and spend your money on a video that teaches you the basics of a cow call. A milk jug or a coffee can with a hole and a rope...
