Help Ban Pigeon Shoots in Pa.

Help Ban Pigeon Shoots in Pa.

Target:
Pennsylvania House of Representatives
Sponsored by: 
Please help support H.B. 2130/ S.B. 1150 to ban killing animals launched from box traps or tethered in place for target practice. This legislation would effectively halt pigeon shoots in Pa. Most of these animals are not killed instantly but are left to suffer after being shot.  This type of animal cruelty simply should not be tolerated! Please show your support for this important piece of legislation. Pigeon shoots are not a sport they are just a form of animal cruelty! Please help end this!

When does murder count as a sport? The intentional killing of a living creature is just that. There are other ways to improve a skill than taking a life, any life.

When we kill for fun there is something wrong. Why doesn't the humane society help stop this ....??? This teaches children not to respect animals. Not respecting animals is teaching them no respect for humans. This is not good...When I was growing up we had animals in our class room to take care of to feed water. We were taught not to kill for the sake of killing. This must stop...this is why kids take guns to school

This is another despicable display of human stupidity. How killing something can be sport is beyond anyone with a conscience.

Everyone knows now pigeon shooting is retarded and cruel. Videos capturing these scumbags just shows what type of garbage they are. Im usually to forgive acts of wrong doings but as for them there is no forgiveness. Anyone who has intervened with them more than well knows what kind of monsters they really are.
