voices against violence: “USDA agrees with you that, whether it involves dogs or birds, animal fighting is inhumane and, rightfully, is also illegal in most of the country.” – Dan Glickman, Secretary, Department of Agriculture “New Mexico needs to step out of antiquity and modernize its feelings about the humane treatment of animals.” – Police Chief Maddox , Ruidoso, NM “I have grandchildren, and this is a part of our culture that I don't want them to learn.” – Dolores Montez, Lordsburg, New Mexico “Kindness and compassion towards all living things is a mark of a civilized society.
