‘Cull of the wild’

To the editor:

I don’t think that Mr. Blanton’s article deserves a serious rebuttal as it is full of innuendos, generalizations and assumptions.

Please go to www.YouTube.com and watch “Cull of the wild” and make your own decision as to who is on the right track.

“The Moral character of a community is reflected by how it treats its animals,” M. Gandhi.

The actions of our county commissioners and employees reflect poorly on our community. On the other hand the overwhelming support by our citizens against trapping clearly shows that this is indeed a humane and caring place.
