People like you are speaking out!

In the wake of the high-profile indictment of Michael Vick, the nation has been awakened to the cruelty of animal fighting. Members of Congress, corporate leaders, and people like you are speaking out. And Louisiana and New Mexico enacted laws this year to outlaw cockfighting -- the last two states to join the fold.

 

Online retailer Amazon is now in the lonely position of promoting animal fighting activities. It's the only online retailer of subscriptions to animal fighting magazines in the United States, and these magazines advertise the sale of fighting animals and cockfighting weapons -- sales made illegal by federal law! The Feathered Warrior even advertised fighting dogs from a dogfighter whose operation makes the enterprise described in the Michael Vick indictment look like a bunch of amateurs.

 

This nonsense from Amazon must stop -- tell them so right now.

 Push this article and boycott Amazon and any company that promotes cruelty to animals.

Sorry, I got cut off.
Okay. I went to the site and there is an open letter to the CEO of Amazon asking him to stop selling this trash. We (users) are encouraged to add to this letter and then send it.
I am glad for your post because it tells me never to buy from Amazon. However, I didn't send the letter because it is a variation on the theme of censorship. It truly is a slippery slope, but if there was ever a cause to ban books, your cause would be right up there.
There are some things (dog-fighting and child porn are two that come to mind) that have zero protection under any freedoms since they promote cruelty. But now that Amazon has been identified as a proxy-sponsor, I will not do business with them and will encourage others to respond in a similar manner.

We can't start taking books off of shelves, Judgenot. We can only inform the public and let them decide accordingly. Not necessarily by turning the other cheek, but by responding in a way that will have the most impact. With Amazon and any other company, that is by interrupting the flow of money into their coffers.

I agree with your intent, though. Believe me.
