Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Urgent: Please forward immediately so we can reach hundreds of thousands of voters with this simple electronic message. Please make sure to open attachment!! VOTE NO ON AMENDMENT 4 This November Florida voters can do the right thing by voting NO on Amendment 4, which would legalize thousands of slot machines at greyhound tracks. If successful, the Sunshine State experiment would create a blueprint for recovery and a means for propping up dying racetracks nationwide. The fate of thousands of greyhounds would be sealed in misery for decades to come. *Every year thousands of dogs are killed when they are no longer fast enough to be profitable. They are killed by a system that puts profits first and racing animals last. *While racing greyhounds face cruel treatment and neglect on a daily basis. *Veterinary care varies from kennel to kennel while dogs are forced to perform throughout the year, even on the hottest days of summer. *They are individually caged for up to 22 hours and fed the cheapest meat available. *Thousands of greyhounds are seriously injured while competing every year. *Thousands and thousands of young puppies are bred each year just to race. Florida has more " farms " than any other state. Dogs who don't show ability while training simply disappear from record. *If Amendment 4 passes, millions of dollars in casino gambling profits will be used to subsidize greyhound races. More dogs will be bred to supply this cruel industry. Every major animal protection group, including the Humane Society of the United States and GREY2K, is opposed to Amendment 4 because it would prop up a cruel industry. With your help, we can defeat Amendment 4 and send a powerful message to the dog racing industry that their cruelty will not be rewarded!

That is the way of the whole human being " . ~Abraham Lincoln " I looked around at all the animals suffering in the world. I saw the abuse, the neglect, the pain. I looked up to heaven and said, Why?Why don't you do something to help the animals? The reply came back. I did do something. I created YOU!
