2,105 7:36 pm PDT, May 8 carol henderson clovis New Mexico United States STOP THE GASSING, I have seen it , its is horrific and slow death. I pray this will be stopped every where. God Bless

2,103 6:27 pm PDT, Apr 29 Maria Bruner fayetteville North Carolina United States It breaks my heart to even think that someone or anyone could even think of a way to do this to animals. I mean they are like family like people they aren't crimnals they have not done any crime. I understand that it is starting to get overpopulated but thats because some people dont take the time to find good homes for the animals. This is like putting a child to sleep because you just cant take care of it. Its just wrong and should be stopped no doubt about it.
2,102 6:49 pm PDT, Apr 28 Laura Johnson Apex North Carolina United States There is nothing more that makes me upset than to see the use of gas chambers to kill animals. This is just another example of nazism still surviving today and together we can fight this!
2,101 10:54 am PDT, Apr 28 Emily Romero Bethlehem Georgia United States This is a horrible act and should be stopped. Animals suffer enough as it is.
2,100 7:53 am PDT, Apr 27 BEV REID Newark Ohio United States Was looking on internet to add another member to our family, as we recently lost our beloved Rotty to bone cancer. I had to stop viewing this site because of the disgust I am seeing. My heart is breaking to see such abuse and neglect bestowed upon these loving and loyal creatures of God. Yes, lets stop this cruelty. This is insane to punish these loving Dogs .....All they want is to bring joy and love to us and we in turn torture them in this way. Shame on everyone that adopts withOUT responsibility.
2,099 4:51 am PDT, Apr 26 Kelli Childers Shelby North Carolina United States I've worked with animal control through my job before & have seen the "gas chamber" & "lethal injection". They suffer so much less with the injection. The screams of dogs & cats when in the gas chamber are unreal & unnecessary.... just so the counties can save a little money...It's rediculous!
2,098 7:04 pm PDT, Apr 24 Amber Nalley Columbia South Carolina United States This is an absolute outrage!
2,097 8:17 am PDT, Apr 24 Patricia Nigro Deltona Florida United States They stopped using gas on the worst kind of criminals in prisons because it was inhumane, like a man or woman that kills a person or child is humane. Lethal Injection is used instead because it is more humane We wouldn't need to enthanize animals if people would just spay & neuter. Stop the gassing of animals who are innocent victims. we need more safe havens for them, love & nurture not torture.
2,096 1:45 pm PDT, Apr 21 Anonymous Muscatine Iowa United States ARE YOU GUYS SERIOUSLY STUPID I MEAN COME ON. These Gas Chambers were used for killing Jews NOT ANIMALS. During the Holocaust in liek 1930-1945 somewhere around there, Germans' were killing the Jews. They were sent to concentration camps, to work, they had to eat bread and soup that had glass, and worms in it. Also all they had was black coffee and really really dirty lake water to drink. So why would you people even think that this is for ANIMALS? really? this is for Jews, and Germans' and why in the world the Jews were treated like this. They didn't do anything to us. SERIOUSLY. This really matters. Should we even care about the Jews? Should we have stopped them and just went out and sent help for them? well what do you think? answer these questions for me okay. But really, comm'on we are talking about freedom and how we all are equal and should be treated the same. So what do you think?

2,092 5:52 pm PDT, Apr 17 Jennifer Chadwick Rio Rancho New Mexico United States Please put an END to the use of gas chambers in animal shelters. Our nation's homeless pets deserve a humane and PAINLESS death, when their death is the only option.
2,091 7:20 am PDT, Apr 17 Angie Lamprecht Lake Station Indiana United States Put a stop to the use of the gas chambers.
2,090 10:41 pm PDT, Apr 14 Jenna Randall Kings Mountain North Carolina United States Didnt they stop gas chambers from being used on humans? What makes these poor animals any different? Not to mention animals dont perform crimes that deserve the death penalty. People, we are the guilty ones! Please neuter/spay your pets. We can end this cruel action one pet at a time!
2,089 6:17 pm PDT, Apr 13 Jennifer Thompson South Portland Maine United States This is horrible, so horrible, that I'm trying to adopt a poor puppy that just had her gassing date moved up to tomorrow morning. Hopefully it's not too late.
2,088 4:12 pm PDT, Apr 12 Laura Filipas Bucharest   Romania Please, stop the cruel use of gas chambers!

2,081 11:06 am PDT, Mar 31 Awbrei Johnson Las Vegas Nevada United States It is wrong and in humane it needs to be stoped there are other ways to put an animal to sleep such as Euthasol.
2,080 12:24 pm PDT, Mar 28 Marlena Jardot Eaton Rapids Michigan United States No animal should suffer because they had irresponsible owners. It is a shame that there is so many unwanted animals and the way their life ends is heartbreaking
2,079 7:02 am PDT, Mar 25 Michelle Romano middletown New York United States Its a shame we spend millions of dollars keeping killers alive in prison but we don't think twice about kiiling animals - don't u find something wrong with that?
2,078 6:47 am PDT, Mar 25 Tiffany Callender Fort WOrth Texas United States If the prison system doesn't even place humans into the gas chamber why are we still using these inhumane actions against these poor animals. Stop killing pets!!!!
2,077 6:26 am PDT, Mar 25 Robin Atkinson Kinderhook New York United States The gas chamber is inhumane. We have to get the legislation of each state involved.
2,076 11:02 pm PDT, Mar 22 Jenny Vegan United States   United States Minor Outlying Islands I am firmly opposed to the use of gas chambers.

2,070 3:11 pm PDT, Mar 17 Kathleen Gentile New Bern North Carolina United States Gas chambers are cruel and inhumane. We don't use them for criminals who have received the death penalty and they chose to be rotten people. These poor animals didn't choose the pathway they were given. Perhaps their humans should face this fate. If the animals have to be put down, at least make it a quick and humane death. Are we Nazis????
2,069 11:02 am PDT, Mar 17 MANDI GAVLAK SOMERS Connecticut United States If these animals were not fortunate enough to have the great life they deserved. They should at least be given some compassion as they leave this world.
2,068 10:38 am PDT, Mar 15 Donna Arce Hollywood Florida United States Please let people know how important it is to fix their pet. Animals can not speak, but they can feel pain and suffering.
2,067 5:07 am PDT, Mar 14 Ashley Faulkner Branchport New York United States I just read a sad story (that made me ball my eyes out) about an animal control officer who has to put down animals in a gas chamber and he hates the job and said people need to spay and neuter their dogs and help stop the use of gas chambers. It's NOT right! Why is it so hard to just inject them and put them to sleep peacefully (not that any animal should be put to sleep anyway)?? They already had a horrible life and shouldn't suffer while dying too. STOP the use of Gas Chambers.
2,066 1:54 pm PDT, Mar 13 TINA NONEY RALEIGH North Carolina United States If you are going to put animals to sleep a gas chamber is NOT the answer. A more humane approach would be euthanasia by injection and just puts the dog to sleep.
2,065 9:10 am PDT, Mar 11 Vicki T St Clair Shores Michigan United States This is a disgusting practice...as I am signing this I am watching a History Channel special on Hitler. No one believes that gassing people was ok so why is it ok to do it to an animal?!?!
2,064 11:23 am PDT, Mar 9 Hillary Hunt rutland Vermont United States How in the world could someone place a animal in a gas chamber because someone didnt want them?
2,063 9:17 pm PST, Mar 8 Anonymous Sulphur Springs Texas United States I hate the chamber. Please help the city to advance and update by doing the right thing, like the vets do leathel injection. It is so hard doing this job as it is. Some times I wish the people in the higher offices would have do this just to see what it is like. Then I want to say to them "it's hard to sleep at night is'nt it."
2,062 10:27 am PST, Mar 5 Heather Weeks Clinton North Carolina United States why does this have to go on
2,061 12:26 pm PST, Mar 2 Anonymous Pittsburgh Pennsylvania United States This is beyond barbaric and must be stopped!!
2,060 6:43 am PST, Mar 2 Shawn Berry Bethel Park Pennsylvania United States This is a cruel act on innocent animals.
2,059 6:57 pm PST, Feb 27 Joan H. Warrenton Virginia United States when injection is a viable, low-cost alternative, there is no excuse for using the gas chamber
2,058 7:53 am PST, Feb 27 Judy Klimesh-Kosch Fayetteville North Carolina United States Gas chambers are inhumane and should be illegal.
2,057 9:33 am PST, Feb 26 Merri Taylor Aurora Colorado United States This is sick and inhumane. Stop!
2,056 7:52 am PST, Feb 26 Lorraine Petro Waterbury Connecticut United States There has to be another way of dealing with this issue besides gas chambers. It's 2008, let's find a more humane method to use.
2,055 10:16 am PST, Feb 24 Roxanne Nagel Lisle Illinois United States I also question anyone who could do this to an innocent animal, I wonder what they would be capable of. Sick people, disgusting practise STOP
2,054 12:03 am PST, Feb 24 Anonymous Carol Stream Illinois United States I'd have to say the only logical thing to do is close PETA they aren't qualified enough to take care of animals.
2,053 6:45 am PST, Feb 23 Anonymous Kannapolis North Carolina United States This is inhumane, and downright cruel...it is obvious that dog lovers of all kinds would be apalled however even if you cannot find it in your heart to love these loyal animals you can appreciate the fact that the human workers who empty the chambers are at risk of serious health problems themselves.
2,052 3:12 am PST, Feb 22 Elizabeth Oehrn Gavle   Sweden It is so cruel
2,051 5:31 pm PST, Feb 19 Julia Tawyea Lake Ariel Pennsylvania United States This is disgusting and should never be done
