It was a post I felt a little nervous about posting, but I really needed to say it.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I felt just like you at first (I also don't vote in California), a little guilty to not want to vote yes. This article helped me to understand the issue better. http://www.abolitionistapproach.com/?p=165<BR/><BR/>I don't think you need to feel guilty considering Prop 2 does basically nothing to help animals and doesn't even go into effect until 2015.

I don't live in California, so I never really thought about how I'd vote on the issue. I actually had to figure how I, as a vegan, stood on it. The other blogger's argument made sense (as does yours) but it makes me feel guilty to think I wouldn't vote yes. It feels like the only hope the animals have and in a realistic sense they may never be free of the slavery. That said, I think that by voting yes, your accepting the lowest offer, like we've given in and are settling.<BR/>Most welfarists I know claim that it takes baby steps to eventually get what we want. I don't know which is a better method. Maybe there isn't one.<BR/><BR/>I appreciated this post, I enjoy intellectual posts like this.Jennifer Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13523715482429775364noreply@blogger.com
