I emailed my legislatures, but just so you know, I’m pretty certain the Vigo County Fair in Indiana has already occurred this year.
Stop the abuse and torture of the poor creatures that are forced to perform ridiculous tricks for ignorant, stupid people, who should know better!! Now is the time for change, no more circuses!!
Letters sent to these 2. Are these the only 2 in Indiana ?
