DESCRIPTION:Hi All, I wanted to let you know about an upcoming demonstration in  your 
 area. Valerie and a few friends are going to be holding a  protest against 
 the Benetton store at 2 Princess Street in Sausalito  (Marin), from 2-3 
 p.m., on Saturday, July 2nd. Please join them!  Please RSVP to Val at 
 valkikumizu@... or call her at (415) 250-  4082.  We are calling on people 
 to boycott United Colors of Benetton until  they stop buying wool from 
 mutilated lambs in Australia (read about  it here:  
 http://www.unitedcrueltyofbenetton.com/index.aspx  and watch the  video:  
 http://www.petatv.com/tvpopup/Prefs.asp?video=save_the_sheep).  In 
 Australia, lambs are put through a gruesome procedure called  mulesing, in 
 which huge chunks of skin are sliced from the  animals'  backsides, with no 
 painkillers given to the animals. In addition to  this horrific cruelty, 
 they suffer through life export, which  confines sheep to open-decked, 
 multi-tier ships, and takes them to  countries in the Middle East, where 
 animal welfare standards are  virtually non-existent. Benetton continues to 
 purchase wool from  Australia, although many other companies like 
 Abercrombie & Fitch,  J.Crew, Timberland, Limited Brands, and Nordstrom 
 have taken a stand  against the cruel practices of the Australian wool 
 industry.  This is your chance to make your voice heard for animals! Please 
  bring your friends, family, and co-workers and come out to let people  
 know about this horrific, unnecessary abuse.  Signs, stickers and 
 literature provided, just show up. Thanks.  \n
