OhioGrrrrrl: If you live in Ohio, I hope you realize that if HSUS gets their way in your state, you'll be paying a lot more for meat, dairy and eggs. Just look at what happened in CA after HSUS 'did their thing' there. If you're already a vegan, food prices for you will also rise.

As far as CCF educating consumers, I think that most intelligent consumers have enough brains to look at all aspects of an issue. After CCF pointed out some of the facts about what HSUS does with peoples' money, people looked at 'the other side.'

Luisced: Donating to your local shelter is always the best idea. They DO NOT receive funding from HSUS.

Sizemorew: If you're referring to an SPCA that belongs to a county, town or other area, they're probably a 'local shelter' and need your donations.

LibertyGeeK; You're right - HSUS wants to do away with hunting. Worse, they are making it extremely difficult for farmers to raise livestock. If they get their way, watch for food prices to increase dramatically. Many of us who are aware of HSUS's tactics also foresee them wanting to do away with domestic animals including service dogs, rescue dogs, trained drug-sniffing dogs, and even pets.
