THLN? What's their game plan?
This
THLN group has been around for 40 years they tell readers.
Obviously its annual “donations” have increased, especially
in the past five years. They do appear to be an informal
extension of the HSUS, Humane Society of the United States. I
don’t claim to have figured out all their game plan.
However, clearly if they intend to continue operating as an
organization (unless regulators crack down on them as I earnestly hope
they will), they will have to drum up animal related issues to parade
before the gullible among the Texas public of some 29 million souls, so
they can have excuses for fund raising appeals. An inordinate
amount of aggrandized ego is clearly in play among the THLN officials,
and their state regional chapter leaders are little more than zombie
brain functionaries for them. The THLN at the very least needs to
wind up its affairs as an organization and permanently shut down based
on two things 1) their actions to defeat the 2011 Texas Companion
Animal Protection Act, after which everything they do is irreversibly
tainted by the agonizing deaths of 30,000 to 40,000 shelter pets who
were gassed and 2) the fact that in fundraising they haven’t been
forthright/straightforward with donors as to their whole record on
gassing and let’s add a #3), THLN evidences that unless they
pre-agree to a pet related bill, they will do all they can to have it
shot down in the State legislature.
They strongly appear to not want many items on their agenda per Texas
legislative session, as then, they would put themselves out of business
sooner insofar as having excuse to drum up donations goes!
