Campaigns Pro-cockfighting article-NY Daily News
NOTE: the roosters referred to in the article were killed both due to their
injuries and because they were trained too violently to be to be
rehabilitated. In any case this person's position is outrageous and
ill-informed - ADOW "Death be not poultry" So the cops find 15 cockfighting roosters in a Bronx basement last
week. Lest the animals face the cruelty of the ring, the ASPCA - it stands
for American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, by the way -
seizes them and kills them. I guess nobody can be cruel to a dead rooster.
Still, I don't know about you, but if I were a rooster, I'd rather take my
chances against an opponent in the sawdust pit than face the fatal mercy of
the ASPCA." Letters to the Daily News: [email protected].
