This weekend, the North Carolina Gamefowl Breeders Association will host the annual meeting of the United Gamefowl Breeders Association right here in Ashvegas at the Crowne Plaza Resort. The UGBA is the lobby group for cockfighters.

Here’s the letter from the group president explaining how important it is to keep working on behalf of all cockfighters.

The (national Humane Society) has stated the UGBA is the only organization that defends the gamefowl industry. We the North Carolina Gamefowl Association are a part of the UGBA and proud of the fact that they defend the rights of people to take part in legal activities. If not for the UGBA and the NCGA, who would defend our right to own gamefowl?

That’s right, people. Stop all the cock-blocking and let these guys have some fun, will ya?
