Petition: "Make Sale of Crush Videos Illegal Again!" (Videos, in denen Tiere gequält werden, sollen verboten werden)

 

Hinweis: Diese Petition richtet sich an Entscheidungsträger in den USA.  Leider steht diese Petition unseres Wissens nur in amerikanischer Sprache zur Verfügung. Wunsch dieser Petition ist, Videos, in denen Tiere gequält werden zu verbieten und vor allem den Handel mit solchen Videos illegal zu machen. "Crush Videos" gelten als "Fetisch" - gezeigt wird, wie kleine Tiere durch Frauenfüße in High Heels bis zum Tode gequetscht werden. Durch den Handel mit solchen Videos werden Tiere also gezielt gequält. Dies möchte die amerikanische Tierschutzorganisation "ASPCA" mit Hilfe dieser Petition verbieten lassen.

On April 20, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled in U.S. v. Stevens that the "Crush Act," a 1999 federal law banning the creation, sale and possession of materials depicting genuine acts of animal cruelty, is unconstitutional and overbroad in its scope.

"Crush" fetish videos (also called "squish" videos) generally depict a woman’s feet as they crush to death small animals such as rodents and kittens. The Crush Act was intended to stop the creation and sale of these horrific videos depicting live animals being intentionally maimed, mutilated, tortured, wounded or killed.

The day after the Supreme Court’s ruling, Representative Gallegly (R-CA) introduced H.R. 5092, a new bill designed to overcome the Court’s decision to strike down the Crush Act. The new bill amends the Crush Act to give it a much narrower focus, but would still prohibit selling or offering to sell any depictions of animals being crushed, drowned, impaled or burned where such actions are illegal.

Please contact your U.S. representative today, urging him or her to support and co-sponsor H.R. 5092 to amend the Crush Act (if he/she has not already done so).
