Sigh.<p>Your post shows the typical HN response where libertarianism comes into play.  It&#x27;s about as bad as discussions around age, sexism, or visa issues.<p>Anyone can bring a ballot measure forth, and well, in CA, people with horses are in general as full of their self importance as your blowhard post.  Oh and people think horses are cute, so it passed.<p>Regarding meat substitution, late 70s&#x2F;early 80s Jack In the Box was substituting Kangaroo for beef.<p>There was a large blow back.<p>Sometimes it is out of emotion, sometimes it is out of misrepresentation.
