BAN Cruel and Tortuous Animal "Crush" Videos

Dear Representative

Crush movies . . . some of the darkest creations of the human race I've ever seen.

These films depict instances of animal cruelty, and/or pornographic acts with animals, usually involving the crushing death of an animal, including insects, mice, rats, guinea pigs, hamsters, monkeys, birds, cats, and dogs. In 1999, the US government banned the depiction of animal cruelty, however the law was overturned by the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals which ruled that these films were protected as free speech.

Please, please work to overturn this rule. This is not free speech. This is torture.

[Your name]
