To the President of Whoop, Inc.(and Whoopi's good friend)

Post by Jennifer »

Dear Tom:
I loved her shirt!
I love her!
By now, I am sure you know there is a firestorm...the rescue community
has lost it's mind on her comments regarding Vick.

I won't forward you the emails as I am sure you have seen some of them...

Whoopi had a monumental opportunity to come out against this horrendous
case of animal cruelty and the practice of dog fighting.
She pretty much compared what Vick did to those in Puerto Rico, who
engage in another horrific crime of cock-fighting. It is not a sport and
the world does not view it as such. This criminal activity which has led
to the serious criminal charges and plea deal Vick has now has made, has
shocked and saddened the nation.
I would hope that Whoopi could speak out against this and defend the
voiceless...these dogs are not property or chattel. They are caring,
loving, creatures who don't ask to be tortured and mistreated and killed.
I think Whoopi has some soul-searching to do and some research....
As an African American friend said to me recently:
"Isn't this what they did to us? Treat us like their property, treat us
inhumanely, for their own amusement?"

Please Tom, this is very serious...I hope Whoopi looks closely at this
for what it is---90% of the homes in this country own dogs...we are a
nation of animal lovers!
It is time to take a stand against this monstrous blood-letting.

Please send my love to Whoopi.

I remain a friend who hopes for her, a raised consciousness.
