The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is allowing the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) to place its anti-animal use rhetoric on postage stamps, and use money gained from the sale of the stamps to further its anti-hunting, anti-animal use mission. Sportsmen’s action is needed immediately to stop this outrage.

Zazzle.com, the company offering the HSUS stamps, reports that through its Community Giving Program 20 percent, or more, of the sales of the HSUS stamps goes to the HSUS.

Earlier this year, Congress amended an 1872 law that forbade advertisements on U.S. currency, including postage stamps. The amendment paved the way for an experimental one-year trial period allowing companies such as Endicia.com, Stamps.com and Zazzle.com to offer customizable stamps via the Internet. These stamps can be printed with everything from baby photos to corporate logos, and in the case of the HSUS stamps, anti-animal use slogans.

Sportsmen must stop this now! Every penny earned through such fundraisers is another penny that will be used to bring and end to hunting, fishing and trapping in the U.S. Contact the USPS and make your outrage known! Send letters to Postmaster General John Potter, 475 Lenfant Plaza SW, Washington, D.C., 20260-0010. Faxes can be sent to Mr. Potter at 202 268-5211. Convince him that it is unacceptable for the USPS to promote and raise money for the HSUS.

Most importantly, call, write and fax your U.S. senators and congressman. Let them know that you expect them to put an end to this exploitation of the U.S. Mail to benefit an

inflammatory organization such as the HSUS. Be sure to send a copy of your letters and faxes to the U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance (contact information above).

Avoid sending emails! While e-mail is an excellent way to inform people about an issue, it is not the best way to send opinions. With the click of a button, an e-mail and dozens of others like it can be deleted.

GSC looses (by 9-birds) to B&BS

in Brown Jug Shoot

Even though we had perfect weather for the Brown Jug competition and the turn out of Gilbert’s shooters (36) was great to B&BS’ (12), the final bird result wasn’t, with a total of 635 points and 48 shooters in total participating.

The competition consisted of 16-yd, 20-yd and Wobble shoots with an overall loss of 9 birds to B&BS. They took the overall, but it was only on the Wobble that they truly out-shot us!
