Zoo in Moultrie County is Wrong

Dear Editor,
We are currently faced with a proposed zoo being established on prime farmland, an idea that is unthinkable. Whether one embraces the concept, and sees no problem, or is totally opposed for numerous reasons- that is his right. What no one has the right to do is to force his view upon others. Through this method of “silent manipulation”, there is total disregard of others and their rights.
I am reminded of the citizen outcry, in opposition, to the proposed Ameren tower route through our community. The difference being that people were made aware and had opportunity to express their views. I challenge each one of you to follow the advice of the unknown author who cautions us by saying,”Slow down and think things through before you make any life changing decisions.”     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
