Outlaw 'Crush Kitten' Videos



Click this link to send this letter

This letter supports a campaign by Change.org, among others, to outlaw
“crush kitten” and other animal torture videos. It goes to President Obama,
Vice President Biden, and members of Congress.

Dear: ______________

Are you aware that people are making and selling ”crush videos” of animal
torture in which, for example, live kittens are crushed to death?

“Free speech” does not extend to torturing or killing other beings for
pleasure, and portrayal of such behavior for recreational purposes should
be forbidden, just as child pornography is illegal.

We need legislation to stop this sort of thing.

Sincerely yours

Your name and address

and Animal Rights Justice Scalia Champion of the right to torture animals


This letter was released on 11/13/2009.

Civl and Human Rights
