Time To Fight The Circus March 23, 2008

Posted by Pulin Modi | Permalink | Comments ( 10 ) | TrackBack

Hello! We have a fun and very effective idea for how to help animals who are abused for the circus. Are you up for it?

Basically, there are circuses like Ringling Bros out on the road right now, and these companies are pretty cruel to animals. Before they come to your town these traveling acts spend a lot of money on advertising what we consider is one of the cruelest shows on earth! Sometimes these shady people put free tickets or discount coupons at stores, gas stations, and schools with hope that people will come out to see their show. But we have a plan and need your help!

1) Keep your eye out for those free circus tickets or discount coupons around town.
2) Take them all. (As long as they don't say there's a limit of how many you take, just grab the whole stack.)
3) Mail the tickets to us (peta2, 501 Front St., Norfolk, VA 23510, USA) or email StreetTeam@peta2.com with a photo of them in your trash can!
4) You'll get 1000 Street Team points!

Let's work towards the day where no animals will be chained, beaten, and abused for the sake of entertainment. People need to be taught lessons of compassion, not cruelty, right?

Thanks for making a difference each and every day!

I should have known this before. I saw a advertising paper taped around the lamppost and I just grabbed it and threw it to the garbage. There was only like three contacts left. Oh well.
