Horse Plus Humane Society shared Hendrick Boards's photo.
DONATE 1 SHARE to help save a blind horse! ➨ http://hendrickboards.com/s/blind-angelThis little filly stumbled into an auction ring, looking confused and frightened. When she walked right into an obstacle, it was obvious she was a completely blind, baby foal who was heartlessly dumped at the auction. The auctioneer started trying to sell her off, but it was obvious the little baby was worthless to all those in the crowd. Her price went down to $5. A humane observer who was attending the auction couldn’t sit on their hands and do nothing any longer, so they bid on her, saving her for only $5.00... We have parterned with Horse Plus Humane Society in creating the JUST GIVE apparel collection to help save her life!

Go Ohio!
Eight Ohio farmers and local business leaders blocked the driveway leading to a fracking waste disposal site operated by K&H Partners of West Virginia. The ei...ght held a banner reading “Our Water, Our Lives! Their Poison, Their Lies!” and forced at least two trucks carrying toxic frack waste to divert during the two hour rally. The blockade was supported by more than 150 local residents. Be sure to LIKE --> Appalachia Resist to follow more action from Ohio.

Keep this in mind next November. Thanks to Americans Against The Republican Party for sharing.
Whether or not you are wasting time watching the super bull, you probably have an idea that there are a few taxpayer dollars involved, simply with all the security measures alone. Heck, our tax dollars probably even paid to take Rudy Guiliani out of his embalming fluid. Anyway, did you know that the NFL, a billion dollar money machine, has tax-exempt status as a non-profit organization? Think about that when you are struggling to pay your taxes.

Tar Sands Pipeline: Vermont's two U.S. senators sharply criticized an environmental impact statement from the U.S. State Department that appears to support construction of the hotly debated Keystone oil pipeline from Canada to Texas. Both Sens.
