Fight the barbaric feeding ban in Ormond Beach
Despite being presented with evidence that feeding bans are cruel and ineffective, the four commissioners and mayor of Ormond Beach, FL, passed an ordinance to fine anyone feeding a stray or feral cat $50.

Write to the commissioners and mayor and kindly ask them to reverse their decision. Tell them that this ordinance will not stop people from feeding cats and that it is not a solution – only nonlethal control through spay/neuter and education is.

Mayor Fred Costello and Commissioners Jeff Boyle, Jim Privett, and Joyce High

I think that really tells you the kind of person he is. "We don't want them, so let's kill them." Ask him if he thinks we should stop providing food and shelter for homeless people as well.

I'll bet he thinks homeless people aren't worth the food and effort as well. I guess he knows nothing about the golden rule, which I think applies to four-legged animals as well as us two-legged creatures.
