California: Support Public Registry for Animal Abusers!

by PeTA
California Senator Mike Florez has introduced a groundbreaking new bill that would help ensure the safety of California's animal and human residents!
If passed, SB 1277 (http://info.sen.ca.gov/pub/09-10/bill/sen/sb_1251-1300/sb_1277_bill_20100219_introduced.html) would require criminals convicted of felony cruelty to animals to be listed on a public registry. Requiring convicted animal abusers to register would prevent countless animals from being abused by alerting law enforcement and the public to their whereabouts and by allowing animal shelters to thoroughly screen potential adopters for criminal histories.

Please make a brief polite call or e-mail to your state representative and senator and urge them to support SB 1277. Click here to look up phone numbers for your state legislators (http://192.234.213.69/lmapsearch/framepage.asp).

Calls and e-mails should be placed as soon as possible to ensure that your voice is heard! Your call will mean the world to animals!

I say fuck PETA! and fuck the law. The state does not care at all about animals ( see AETA). Animal rights activists who work to create more laws are only strengthening the state, which works tirelessly to smash the animal liberation movement. PETA works for money and state validation, not animals.

Calling all animal rights activists in the SF Bay area, please deal with the man in Oakland who tortured dogs. KTVU 2 ran a story on it last night. He is a repeat offender, and will likely torture again. He needs to be dealt with ????????


PS the url says Bart Shooting, which is wrong.
