And that's how it's done

Farmers are outstanding people.

But you knew that.

But why are they outstanding today? you ask.  Because with only a few hours notice 750-1200 people convened on the capital steps for the "Stand Up for Agriculture Rally." 

HSUS managed to gather 100 people.  Some say that estimate is generous (see this You Tube video).  This is even more embarrassing to the Humane Society, since the county in which Jefferson City is located approved Prop B.

Based on statements from policy makers, FB President Blake Hurst reports "Stand Up for Ag" as "one of the best rallies they've seen at the State Capitol."
