If anyone is looking for a perfect example of the moral pathology of our species’ behavior on Planet Earth, the Pennsylvania pigeon shoot massacres are it. UPC is publishing the latest SHARK alert urging people PLEASE to write an email on behalf of these helpless birds. Despite SHARK’S tireless and relentless filming of the pigeon shoots week after week, year after year, and despite the fact that these shoots are illegal under the PA state anti-cruelty law, the Pennsylvania State Legislature and Governor refuse to enforce the law, preferring instead to nurture and legitimize the most sickly depraved appetites for torturing animals in Pennsylvania’s children and their child-abusing parents. There is no better example of flagrant Child Abuse joined to flagrant Animal Abuse. Where are the large animal “protection” organizations with the power and money to make this a Huge Legislative Issue in Pennsylvania? It is unbelievable that these weekly massacres of tens of thousands of deliberately starved, dehydrated, terrified and helpless pigeons are practically invisible to us, apart from SHARK. Once upon a time, the now defunct Fund For Animals prioritized the banning of pigeon shoots in Pennsylvania. But since the disappearance of the Fund, the pigeons and pigeon shoots have all but disappeared down the Memory Hole of our Movement. Please support SHARK’s campaign to expose and eliminate Pennsylvania’s illegal pigeon shoots. Here is SHARK’s latest Alert, from United Poultry Concerns http://www.upc-online.org/pigeons/.

PLEASE write an email on behalf of the birds.

No Justice in Corrupt Berks County, PA

Animal Cruelty Caught from Above

No Justice in Corrupt Berks County, PA

 

Dear Friends,

More than two weeks ago, SHARK investigators documented the latest pigeon slaughter at the Wing Pointe canned hunt resort, in very corrupt Berks County, Pennsylvania.

Many of you have watched the videos showing the unimaginable cruelty at the last slaughter. I choose not to recount the torture here. My words could not begin to match the horror of what happened. Without question, the shooters committed many violations of Pennsylvania humane laws.

The participation in the cruelty by apparently underage boys should lead to charges beyond animal abuse, perhaps for contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

An apparently underage boy about to slam to pigeons to the ground. Just one of many instances of violence and absolute cruelty being committed at Wing Pointe.

More than two weeks later, the Pennsylvania State Police and Berks County District Attorney John Adams should be done with a comprehensive investigation into what happened, and charges should be filed. Instead, there is a deafening silence, like the vacuum after an enormous bombshell. In this case, the sound of corruption is nothing - absolutely nothing.

Disgusted and repulsed by the void of any concept of justice in Berks County, I sent a letter to Berks County President Judge Jeffrey L. Schmehl. I am asking Judge Schmehl to remove the American Flag from the Berks County Courthouse, as the corruption of District Attorney Adams is so profound that it soils our nation's colors. People have died for that flag and the flag is supposed to represent justice, yet there is no justice to be found in Berks County, Pennsylvania.

I ask you to join me in asking Judge Schmehl to remove the American Flag from the Berks County Courthouse. Let's send a loud and clear message to not only Berks County, but throughout Pennsylvania, the US and beyond.

By calling out the corruption in Berks County, we will not only stand up for our nonhuman friends, we will stand up for the very ideals that built our country.

Here is where you can write to Judge Schmehl:

Berks County President Judge Jeffrey L. Schmehl
Court of Common Pleas of Berks County
Berks County Courthouse
633 Court Street
Reading, PA 19601
610-478-6208
Email: bcrossley@countyofberks.com

We will keep you informed about this shameful scandal.

In SHARK's latest video posted on YouTube, our Angel remote controlled aircraft documents the high percentage of pigeons escaping from an illegal, live pigeon shoot at Wing Pointe. As you can see, many of them are wounded and doomed to a slow, painful death.
