End animal rape, brothels, and pornography

The Issue

Animals are being raped all over the world, the United States included. All rape should be illegal. It does not matter if the victim isn't human, animals still feel. Rape is rape. When an animal is raped, the animal often dies or requires emergency surgery. Humans are not meant to have sex with animals, our bodies are not compatible, which is why this sick practice normally ends in a fatality. If you google animal pornography, you will sure enough find numerous links to the distubring act. Child pornography is illegal, so why isn't animal pornography illegal as well? Both are sick and disturbing and both deserve to be illegal, not just one. There are no laws against animal rape and pornography in 12 states. In these states there were anti bestiality laws, but they were repealed. That is absurd. It's still rape even if it's an animal. Humans take advantage of animals because they do not have the ability to speak. If animals could speak, i guarentee you animal pornography would be a thing of the past. But because animals do not have the ability to say no, we must do it for them. We must help save lives from torture and death. The strong are supposed to protect the weak. End the rape and abuse now.

The Decision Makers

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA)
Thank you for contacting PETA about bestiality (humans’ use of animals for sexual pleasure). It is a very serious issue and should be considered an act of abuse. Sexual assaults against animals can be fatal, and we encourage everyone to take action against this type of violence. If you encounter a website that depicts acts of bestiality, please report the site to its host. For information about what to do about websites depicting or supporting cruelty to animals, please see http://www.PETA.org/action/get-active-online/cruelty-internet. The Department of Justice has developed a division to help investigate Internet crime. Please go to http://www.usdoj.gov/criminal/cybercrime/ to learn more about this program. To submit a complaint, please go to http://www.justice.gov/criminal/cybercrime/reporting.html. Animal abusers need to be aggressively prosecuted. If you visit the action alerts page on our website (http://www.PETA.org/action/action-alerts), you will find that many alerts address cruelty cases. Our Cruelty Investigations Department (CID) pursues animal-abuse cases by contacting law-enforcement officials, pushing for vigorous prosecution and strict sentencing, sending out news releases (http://www.PETA.org/media/news-releases), and offering rewards for information leading to convictions of perpetrators. CID has also mailed our “abuse link” packs—which explore the connections between cruelty to animals and violence against humans—to hundreds of prosecutors and judges across the country. Please visit http://www.PETA.org/issues/companion-animal-issues/ to learn more about the following topics: • What to do if you witness cruelty to animals • The link between animal abuse and human abuse • How to campaign effectively for tougher laws Thanks again for your compassion for animals. Sincerely, The PETA Staff http://www.PETA.org
