Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / June 2007Stop Amazon.com's sales of illegal animal fighting materials
I thought you might be interested in this HSUS campaign to stop Amazon.com's sales of illegal animal fighting materials. Amazon sells both cockfighting magazines and bloody, graphic dogfighting DVDs. The company is so determined to continue selling these materials that it filed a motion against The HSUS in federal court, essentially asking that federal and state laws to protect animals be gutted to accommodate Amazon's sales of animal fighting paraphernalia! Please ask Amazon to remove these materials from its website.

I just placed an order with Amazon this morning! Thanks for telling me, I'm right on it.

In the message I sent, I mentioned that I have spent over $200 in books from Amazon in the last 6 weeks, and will buy nothing further through them as long as they sell this crap. > I thought you might be interested in this HSUS campaign to stop > Amazon.com's sales of illegal animal fighting materials.

But are these books and DVD's *from* Amazon or are they offered by some of the independent resellers who list items for sale there? I do agree it's horrific to promote these activities in any way, shape or form and I definitely sent a letter using the link. But I'm not sure Mr. Bezos has his finger on the pulse the way he did when he started out with a computer in his garage those many years ago.

Amazon.com might see it as a freedom of press issue, but that seems dubious in this instance.

What a bunch of lowlifes--both those who derive entertainment from watching animals destroy one another, and those who sell literature in support of it!

I am going to send a letter informing them that I will no longer purchase *anything* from them as long as this policy is in force. The loss of one customer would not hurt them at all, but the loss of *many* sources of revenue (if we all did the same thing) might have an effect.
