So the sport was banned in 1928 and bought back in 1930 by Jack lang member for auburn and now in our corner the labour leader and member for auburn luke foley,so if nothing else we have history on our side.

How things have changed Back in the early 80s my kids were at primary school and they were so proud of their mum and Dads grehounds and their kennles that the entire clas came down and had an hour in the kennles patting the dogs and asking a million questions. I think there were even a few of their mums who came withe the transport and were impressed at the time. They had to be cause another time was arranged for another group to come as well.
I wonder if any of those kids ended up as Greenies or political bastards. Lol

Maybe that's how we beat him. We lobby those who are bigger and better than him that have the power to block his projects that were designed to replace our tax contributions to the state. He would have no choice but to back down.

Get that video of singer stating its ok to have sex with an animal.Get it replayed on a commercial channel. Put up advertising to the effect of. Animals Australia want to ban greyhound racing. It's cruel .Their founder say"s its ok to have sex with an animal...Who's side are you on? Need to discredit those who gutless politicians put so much emphasis on there agendas. Today these real pieces of crap oogjes says"No sympathy for people about to lose everything,No innocent participants." faruqi says she will see the annihilation of the greyhound industry Australia wide. Take aim these are the enemy it's time to stop taking their crap. No I didn't give their names capital letters they don't deserve that respect just like you people who continue to put a Mr infront of those politicians who are out to destroy us. Time to find the rock these maggotts are hiding under.

ABC seem happy to put out this story about dog sled racing in Australia.
Do you have questions about greyhound racing?
