Amazon Sells Illegal Animal Fighting Materials
Did you know that Amazon.com is selling illegal animal fighting books, magazines and DVDs?
Me either. I just found out.
According to a docket on the Humane Society of the United States website,
“Federal and state laws prohibit the sale and shipment of animal fighting magazines and videos, but Amazon.com sells subscriptions to two cockfighting magazines that are little more than catalogs of advertisements for fighting animals and weapons that are illegal to sell. Until the day The HSUS filed suit, Amazon also sold two dog fighting videos in which 18 dogs were actually maimed and killed. The HSUS will argue that Amazon’s sale of these illegal materials is an unlawful trade practice under District of Columbia law.”

Stay tuned for updates on this situation…
I think it’s crazy that there are cockfighting magazines in publication? Who in the heck would want to have a job at that place?
