Thank God For Iron Ladies!
I would simply add that the lady who organised the above protest (her
photo at side of me, above!), was one who had the courage of an Old
Testament Deborah, an Esther or a New Testament John The Baptist. Yes,
thank God for such iron ladies within the ranks of animal rights and
welfare! They show up so many men folk! When I arrived on the above
scene, one was already spouting unaccompanied, to a police officer
nearby as well as to a couple of circus hands. Well, I don’t know about
you? But I can most comfortably take a stand when encircled by comrades
and cheerleaders; but this refined lady took her stand solo! Yes,
forcefully protesting via a megaphone, in the presence of a police
officer there who was ‘out to keep the peace’ while two rather unsavoury
looking circus hands – already mentioned – were taking in all that Betty
Lee had to say to them. Her witness reminded me of a favourite
scriptural quotation: “The righteous are as bold as a lion!"
