They're banning all animal activities at the park?

The bestiality lobby is going to have a field day with this.

“Like many of my neighbors in Ocean Park who boycott this market because of the animal exploitation, I was not comfortable seeing ponies tethered and forced to plod in endless circles on hot concrete with band music hammering their ears and car exhaust in their face,” she said.

I would like to substitute liberals for those ponies. Perhaps we could arrange for skittles to come out their rear ends while they serve the community.

Don’t they understand that if kid’s aren’t allowed to pet animals they’ll grow up wanting to hunt them,eat them and torture them?

Activist Marcy Winograd,

How is that spoilers are always called "activists?"

People with a brain need to apply it in formulating an exit strategy from that rathole of a state ASAP. It is lost to us.

I’m a resident of Ocean Park and happen to love seeing the ponies and assorted other animals there on our early Sunday morning beach walk. The reason I stopped going to the farmers’ market is that its overcrowded with liberals and their agendas.

It's shorter than "blue-nosed busybody whose sole function is to tell other people how to live their lives."

This may not be a bad thing after all. If illegal ponies from Mexico are being used, then this is obviously a bad lesson for the chillrun.

Let’s face it. Everyone does not have a pony...

muslims are slaughtering millions of human beings, and leftists are worried about ..... whether the ponies might develop a sore back.

"“My whole goal in life is to teach kids in the city about farm animals and how important of a role they play in our lives.”"

Does she realize that farm animals provide needed protein and are slaughtered every day to feed humans? Does she realize we are at the top of the food chain and with our sentient humanity we deserved to live off other lessor mammals? And what about the lions who tear apart the poor antelopes? Ever here of PETA bemoaning that natural process? Or am I reading her incorrectly?

The lefties prefer that the ponies will end up as dog food and/or in a glue factory?
