The HSUS Continues To Buy Up Stock

April 23, 2010

The HSUS Continues To Buy Stock To Push Their Agenda

The largest and richest anti-hunting organization continues to buy up stock in food companies. They do this so that they will gain control over what these companies use to make their products and in the end to ultimately accomplish their goal which is to stop all consuming and killing of animals.

A press release that was sent out by the HSUS indicated that they bought stock in Flower Foods Inc., which is a company based out of Georgia that manufactures baked goods. The HSUS intends to use their power to make Flower Foods to stop using egg suppliers that don’t act to the exact standards that the HSUS thinks they should be.

One of the standards being the size of the cage where the hens are stored.

As some may recall the HSUS bought stock in ‘Jack In The Box’ and the ‘Steak and Shake’ chains back in February under the same intentions.

Hunters Against PETA will continue to keep an eye on the HSUS and do what we can to combat them. The HSUS is the biggest threat to us sportsmen, they are extremely rich and powerful. They have many friends in Hollywood and in Washington.

Kinesys Sunscreen Company Friends With PETA

April 4, 2010

We received an informative email the other day from one of our friends DIYBowHunter.com informing us of an email that they received from the large and popular sunscreen company Kinesys. Kinesys is a very large sunscreen manufacture. Here is the email that Kinesys sent to DIYBowHunter.com

“Hi Al,

Thanks so much for your email. Unfortunately, we are not able to provide a
free sample for you to test.

Our promotional efforts focus mainly on efforts to help prevent sun damage,
especially in the area of skin cancer prevention. While we certainly can
appreciate how your readers would have significant need for an undetectable
sun protection product while hunting, I am sure you can also appreciate how
a company such as ours must be careful in choosing our alignment partners.
We have a significant number of retailers, end-users and stakeholders who
would prefer we stay focused on an educational-only message.

As I am sure you have heard before, your sport is considered controversial
by some and we consider any possible promotional opportunities to be
inappropriate for our mainstream family-oriented messages. Additionally, as
you will see in our website we have deliberately formulated our products to
be cruelty-free to animals and we are a partner of such groups as Caring
Consumer, an affiliate of PeTA. Obviously, sport hunting is highly
inconsistent with this stance.

We did have the opportunity to view your website and we believe it to be
well-done and your hard work in presenting it does show. However, for both
business and ethical reasons we thank you for your interest but decline any
future involvement.

We wish you and Eric success with your website and blog and should you wish
to purchase KINeSYS products, we always welcome new customers.

Sincerely,
Rob Takeuchi
KINeSYS Inc.”

We at Hunters Against PETA encourage everyone to stop buying this company`s products, if you do you`re supporting PETA.

Press Release From Mark French Out Of Montana Regarding The Wolf Problem

Montana Congressional Challenger Calls for Immediate Reduction of Wolf Population in Montana

Paradise, Montana (Mar. 27, 2010) – Montana Congressional challenger, Mark French, is calling for an immediate reduction of the wolf populations in Montana, citing four main points. First is the Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks (MFWP) policy of eradicating a species that represents an “emerging threat” to a native endangered species, as has become apparent with the current non-native wolf species introduced in the state. Secondly, the presence of a harmful parasite enhanced in Montana through introduction of this non-native wolf subspecies. Third is the direct threat of domestic predation as seen  last week with the miniature horses near St.Regis and the recent killing of a healthy female jogger in Alaska. Lastly is the obvious and severe decline in the wild game populations linked directly to wolf predation.

French noted the MFWP’s policy for eradicating “emerging threats” practiced during the purposeful poisoning of the Blossom Lakes and Creek Fisheries in August 2009 near Thompson Falls, Montana as well as other locations in the state. To be consistent with the MFWP’s philosophy where the “emerging threat” of the brook trout was potentially harming the viability of the native endangered bull trout, French says the state must take a studied look at the current wolf issue here in Montana. The introduced wolf is roughly twice the size of the resident endangered wolf, and comes from a Northern wolf population that is far from endangered. “Montanans suspect they have been sold a lie. They are taking action into their own hands because their government has failed them while their game herds are disappearing before their eyes,” French exclaimed.

There are many subspecies of wolves in America. Wolf advocates have classified the many wolf subspecies into 5 groups: two of which are Canis lupus nubilus (CLN), considered the category for the small “native” Montana wolf – and Canis lupus occidentalis(CLO), a far northern subspecies category for the much larger wolf that was introduced into Montana over a decade ago. It is important to note that the CLN subspecies is considered threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), whereas the CLO subspecies is not.

“Introduction of the CLO subspecies is not justified under the ESA,” states French, when recognizing that these wolves have a much harsher impact on the Montana environment and other native big game species than the CLN subspecies would have had. Of the greatest immediate concern is the impact of this larger more aggressive subspecies on game herds. “How can we protect this subspecies under the ESA, when it is the smaller native CLN subspecies that has qualified for threatened species protection in our state?” French asks.

In addition to the Endangered Species Act concerns, there has emerged a potentially significant public health hazard due to the parasite, E.granulosa, enhanced in our environment through introduction of the non-native wolf subspecies. This foreign parasite can potentially have incalculable negative economic impact in addition to a direct threat to domestic herd animals, pets and human health. This parasite has the potential to infect all persons involved in the handling and consumption of domestic and game animals. “Is Montana’s ranching industry prepared to weather this potentially huge economic threat? In addition, are we willing to have our people and pets threatened by attack when going out alone? asks French, a rancher, outdoorsman and medical scientist.

As the invasive brook trout was an “emerging threat” to the threatened bull trout and decisive action was taken by MFWP to remove the “emerging threat”, decisive action must be taken by MFWP against the invasive CLO wolf subspecies in order to protect the ESA threatened CLN wolf subspecies. The declining herds, domestic threats and the parasite problem  seal the urgency of this decisive action.

A public meeting on this subject called by Senator Hinkle, will be held at the Thompson Falls gymnasium on 3/29/10 from 6-8 PM. Regional wolf experts will take questions.

French asks any concerned citizen to contact Joe Maurier, Director of MFWP, through Phone: 406-444-9089 ext. 2535; Email: jmaurie@mt.gov; or Fax: 406-444-4952.

Express your thoughts and request the following actions be taken immediately:

1. Immediate public hearing on this issue called within 2 weeks.

2. Open season for all legal hunters.

3. State sponsored aggressive helicopter hunting.

4. State sponsored trapping.

Once the immediate threat of this non-native wolf species is significantly reduced, Montana must retain complete wolf management responsibility as authorized under the Tenth Amendment of the US Constitution.

We at Hunters Against PETA will definitely be expressing our opinion on this matter and we urge everyone who reads this to follow suit and do the same.
