The reason for our protest:

On March 1, 2019 the DeKalb County government issued a cease and desist order against Bradford Livestock, an unauthorized backyard slaughterhouse operating in a residential neighborhood. For over 3 years DeKalb County has not enforced their cease and desist order. We are protesting to demand DeKalb County does what is right and stands up to backyard slaughterhouses.
