As I've written about the lack of strong penalties in Alabama for illegal cockfighting, I've often asked for justification of this so-called "sport." Today, I received a letter from a man in Oklahoma, laying out his justification.

Mr. Kennedy,

I am a gamecock farmer. I am also a single parent with full custody of my 10 year old daughter who has not missed a day of school in 3 years, she is a straight A student and her lowest grade on her last report card is a 98. I am retired from the US Army and a disabled veteran and I am a Christian. Now that you know something about who I am let me educate you on other facts.

Quite obviously you are ignorant of the gamecock harvest industry and have been indoctrinated into believing the lies of Wayne Pacelle and the never-ending false propaganda of the well-funded Humane Society of the United States.

I own and possess gamecocks for the only purpose you can which is to harvest. The method of harvest of gamecocks has been allowing them to fight another gamecock for more than 3,000 years, the majority of our founding fathers like George Washington and Andrew Jackson harvested their gamecocks by fighting them on what is now the White House lawn.

I have been attending cockfights since I was 14 years old and I have never seen a prostitute or drugs at a cockfight. I have only seen one fistfight at a cockfight and that was between two men fighting over a girl that wasn't even at the gamecock harvest facility that day but during friendly discussion they found that each of them were dating her and didn't know the other one was, which quickly escalated into a fistfight.

Every raid by government agents creates situations where the agents may hurt, cripple and even kill people no matter what the issue is that the "law" is meant to address. What you advocate is that these government agents should make raids, rip families apart and create these situations where gamecock farmers may be killed because your personal opinion of chickens outweighs the right of these farmers to harvest their livestock, earn a living and provide for their families.

God gave man dominion over the earth, animals, fish and fowl, our Constitution is written to ensure each man is equal in these God given rights, to advocate as you do that the God given rights of the gamecock farmer can be taken away over your personal desire to protect chickens amounts to paganism and animal worship as you have personally chosen to put animals (chickens) above the lives of the gamecock farmers across Alabama.

I truly feel sorry for you.

The legislature of Alabama passed the first anti-agenda 21 bill in America but maybe you are not aware of what UN Agenda 21 actually is and what you are advocating in support of.

UN Agenda 21 = The Pagan's bible.

Alabamans must come to understand that our common fight is actually biblical in nature our God-given rights (Constitution) versus satanic animal worshiping paganism (UN Agenda 21).

When will the Republicans who profess to be "defenders of the Constitution" repeal the unconstitutional law criminalizing the gamecock harvest industry and tell the Pagan animal worshipers of the Humane Society of the United States to take their Pagan bible "the UN Agenda 21 Charter" and get out of our state? The UN Agenda 21 Charter is their earth and animal worshiping pagan bible.

Understand that animal welfare laws are the same thing that Adolf Hitler used in the early days of Nazi Germany to destroy property rights, seize fascist control of the entire nation and establish the ideology that animals and human lives were equal that were later used to justify euthanizing humans. History does repeat itself if you don't know history.

The UN Agenda 21 plan is meant to destroy our property rights as the HSUS uses false propaganda to institute satanic animal worshiping paganism in Alabama. The HSUS's role in pushing the UN Agenda 21 plan is to destroy our animal agriculture industries. Let's connect the dots here:

1. Maurice Strong is/was a senior board member and advisor of the Humane Society of the United States.

2. Maurice Strong is the co-founder of UN Agenda 21 a plan to move nature, animals, fish and fowl above human lives. Gro Brundtland the other co-founder is the Vice-President of the World Socialist Party intent on forcing socialism/communism worldwide.

3. Maurice Strong is a long time high ranking member of the "new age" movement. The "new agers" are a Satanist cult that practices paganism and worships animals. According to Lawyer Constance Cumbey, Maurice is a very prominent member of the New Age pagan animal worshiping satanic cult. You can listen to her statement at the 38:30 mark of this video.

Are you sitting by letting our Constitution be destroyed by apathy and intolerance directed toward fellow Alabamans simply because they are a minority from the rural areas that are involved in an animal agriculture industry you have no honest knowledge of and no interest in?

The unconstitutional cockfighting laws are the foundation of the communist/Pagan UN Agenda 21 plan. The animal welfare act and all of the animal welfare/animal cruelty laws are tied to the UN Agenda 21 plan and the Satanist cult new age movement which is based on paganism and animal worship.

Please learn what you are truly supporting and choose wisely which side you are truly on because right now you have chosen the side of the Satanic animal worshiping pagan cult.

I truly hope that you have chosen that side out of ignorance, and the truth in my words above will enlighten you with the truth so that you may correct your mistake; I would truly hate to think that you would actually advocate and promote the pagan ideology meant to put chickens above human lives if were fully aware of the truth.

"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge" and "the truth shall set you free" seem to come to mind here.

Take care and God bless,

So, what do you think? Does Mr. Cozad succeed in justifying this industry?
