If you want to see the future under Democrat rule, look to the Left Coast, where liberals are solidifying control. In Oregon, an impending ballot initiative may make providing for a normal human diet into a crime.

IP 13 will be on the ballot next fall. It eliminates exceptions to animal cruelty laws that are required for any number of activities that have been key aspects of human existence since before recorded history, including animal husbandry, hunting, and fishing. According to John M. Simpson of the law firm Duane Morris LLP, it would make any injury to an animal that results from the following activities a criminal offense:

• Treatment of livestock transported by owner or common carrier.

• Rodeos or similar exhibitions.

• Commercially grown poultry.

• Use of good animal husbandry practices.

• Slaughtering of livestock in compliance with state law.

• Fishing, hunting and trapping otherwise lawful under state law.

• Wildlife management practices under color of law.

• Lawful scientific or agricultural research or teaching that involves the use of animals.

• Reasonable measures to control of vermin or pests.

• Reasonable handling and training techniques.

The only exceptions allowed to animal cruelty laws would be for self-defense or veterinary practices.

Even producing leather may soon be illegal in Oregon, unless the hide comes from an animal that has died of natural causes.

After they have made meat illegal while shrieking about “animal cruelty,” and energy illegal while shrieking about “global warming” — and we are left to subsist on vegan diets while we freeze in the dark — leftists will come for the rest of our food. Already, farming is said to offend the weather gods believed in by liberals.

   […] That is, so as to pretend that we can prevent the climate from fluctuating as it always has, we must learn to live without AC, just as we will learn to live without meat. […]
