ANIMAL CRUELTY PLEASE READ THIS NOW!! WE MUST STOP THIS MAN!!!

[whitebengal]

I hope the dog bites his balls off.

lol nice choice of words there....I agree!

people put more money towards animals than human charities like cancer ect..
I personally don't care about animals as human charities are more important.

Animal cruelty will be around for years, it's not going to stop.

It's people like you that cause so much animal cruelty to continue....Maybe you should fight for the cause rather than saying 'its not going to stop'

Do something about it and it WILL make a difference!!

you kno it seems to me that only me and meti care about this disguesting what ever they call it but you ppl are a bunch of messed up idiots ur parents are probley ashamed of haveing such BEEP ups as there kids.

all of u can go to hell.

thanks for your support in this meti

You're not on your own I agree 100%

I have been campaigning for animal cruelty to stop for years....and I mean ALL animal cruelty.

Well, a human life is more important then an animal life, but if you CAN do something about it, then you should.

Why is a human life more important than an animals?
If an animal could speak, you would not think like that that.
Animals are just like humans, They live, They breathe, They feel love, They have families, They build homes, They feel fear and they feel pain....just like we do!

Only difference between animals and humans is we can speak and they cant!
Therefore they are treated differently and this is wrong on so many levels.
Animals were not put on this planet to be slaughtered, eaten, tested on, used for fashion, hunted or to be used for entertainment!

This is a cruel world full of cruel people....Sad fact is it will take a LONG time before it is stopped...but the small things you do can make a BIG difference.

Sign petitions, Go on demonstrations and be the voice for animals.
They're crying out for help whether you like it or not....Animals need people to help them...simple! They can't defend them selves and they can't speak out but we can.....We can make a difference if we don't give up!
Too many people are ignorant to the fact that animals have just as much rights as humans!

I have always been an animal rights activist and I'm proud to be! I will continue to go on demonstrations, I will continue to tell people the truth!
Call me a tree hugger, Call me what you like.....
I couldn't care less what people think of me because I know that I am making a difference and for every demonstration I go on, For every petition I sign and for every A.L.F member I support I know that I am doing what I can do be the voice for animals!

not all animals are all innocent, to the person that said animals don't do NOTHING to be treated this way, your stupid!?! real life people get tortured like this as well :S and they aint always bad people!! a little boy in our town got bit on the neck by a dog and his voice box is completely ******, so if you think animals are all innocent little creatures think again, but fair enough, they don't deserve this kinda treatment, no-one does.

Starving dog exhibit reported as a hoax


The story of a dog being starved to death as part of an art exhibition appears to have been falsely reported by Costa Rican newspaper The Nation, according to new sources. I reported the appalling story here last week among global outrage about the exhibit and a reported invitation to repeat the work elsewhere.

It has now emerged, however, that artist Guillermo Habacuc Vargas intended the work to be a stunt to show how a starving dog suddenly becomes the centre of attention when it is in a gallery, but not when it is on the street. The work was intended to expose people for what they really are - "hyprocritical sheep". He said that in order for the work to be valid, he and the gallery had to give the impression that the dog was genuinely starving to death and that it died.

Juanita Bermúdez, director of the Codex Gallery, stated that he would not have allowed the dog to be mistreated, that it ate and drank regularly, and that it was allowed to escape back to the streets from where it was taken at the end of the exhibit. "It is conceptual art and a work that leaves a social message", he said.

The stunt provoked massive outrage on a global scale, and over a million people have signed an online petition to try and prevent another dog being starved to death in a repeat of the exhibit. Unconfirmed reports say that the artist even received death threats and, judging by the vehement anger I've seen in response to this story, that would not suprise me.

The strange thing is perhaps how you react knowing now that this was a hoax. I suspect, like me, you still feel angry, perhaps that it's sick, and that your initial reaction was totally justified. But though I may not agree with his shocking methods whatsoever, I have to admire Guillermo Habacuc Vargas' ability to inspire such a reaction and, in that sense, didn't he achieve what he set out to do? Whether it qualifies as 'art', conceptual or not, is a totally different matter...

Dogs don't just bite for no reason...Dogs that bite are usually badly kept or are threatened in some way....Dogs aren't vicious monsters like they are sometimes portrayed! I had a dog once that bit someone and this was because the little boy stood on him...My dog wasn't vicious though...and I'm sure if someone stood on you while you were sleeping you would react badly too....

Whether it is a hoax or not..That doesn't matter...Point is things like this DO happen!

think about it though, humans can speak and dogs cannot they have to find other ways to tell you when there annoyed so.. and also sometimes its the owner who brings there dog up like that, so you cant blame the dog really at all, if the owners want there dog to be like that he shouldnt be outside, or maybe the boy done something. im not stupid at all, animals dont do anything really on purpose like humans do and its not fair because they dont have a voice to stand up for themselves like humans can.

Animal cruelty is Just wrong,It just saddens everytime i see it
Poor Dog x

[Bun]

i do agree that torturing animals is wrong, but i fully support animal testing .

[Misawa]

No, it's a publicity stunt on public space groups. The dog didn't die, and the exhibition lasted one day. The stunt is that these people change the story so that people will join the group. The dog didn't starve to death at all.
