A letter writer from my community of University Place wrote a letter to the editor about the recent Supreme Court ruling regarding animal "crush videos." (To note: if you've heard about this form of, in my opinion, animal cruelty, you know what I am talking about. If you have not, nationally syndicated columnist, Kathleen Parker has a superb piece about the topic that recently ran in the TNT. Click HERE to read it. Be aware, the article is difficult to read due to the disturbing content and is meant for mature audiences only).
Okay, there's a little discussion going on about the letter on the Letters to the Editor blog on the TNT. To take a peek, check it out HERE.
Typically, I like my posts on this blog to be tied to local issues, events, and people for the most part. However, I am very passionate about animals and fairness, as I suspect many of my fellow South Sounders are. For more information, check out the ASPCA website and The Humane Society of America.

Plain & simple congress needs to overrule the supreme court & make these videos illegal with LONG prison terms for ALL participants who appear/pretend to be "human".
Hi Moo. Just got back in town and saw this. I can't say I disagree with this! Thanks for the comment!
I read Parker's article and I felt heart sick... thanks for writing about our dear friends, the animals around us
It's a very tough topic, yes. However, I have always lent my voice to help animals in distress. This piece just bolsters my resolve!
All I had to see was the title to start tearing-up. We are supposed to take care of ALL our relations. It's shameful...and I'm so sad.
Yes, Lorraine. You are spot on. I am sad, but also angry. I have decided to channel my energy in helping and educating.
