    This Story is Bizarre-WARNING-Extremely Graphic

    This story should not be read by anyone that remotely thinks it will disturb them. It is bizarre. I have emailed my local tv station and demanded they remove it from their site. It is accompanied by a video. I encourage those who are interested to email someone and complain about the casual availability of this kind of information. I'm just sick.

    This is a news story out of New Zealand.

    Karen:
    please remove if you feel it's too graphic. Sorry. I just wanted other pet lovers to be aware of this ridiculous practice.

    The link you posted goes to the CNN story, not your local station's site. It is a very sad story. To be effective, you should see what advertisers are on your local station's site, and complain to them, and tell them they shouldn't sponsor such horrible stories, or you will not patronize their businesses.

    Great idea, Karen. Thanks. I am not sure how to link my local network but I'll give it a try.

    This is the site it's on. Of course it's on many others too. This story is the first one listed under "Videos" in the upper right corner.

    I will spend some time emailing the advertisers.

    I am specifically talking about this outrageous story. I'm not referring to every banner on every web site I don't like. As a matter of fact, I don't visit sites I don't like. That has nothing to do with this issue.

    This story is readily available, along with a very graphic, sickening video that comes with no warning. The story is preposterous and I don't agree with what has happened. I am merely taking Karen's suggestion to try to stir up some people.
