Please ask your US Senator to vote yes and pass H.R. 5566 banning crush videos. This bill has already passed the House and now must pass the Senate & finally be signed by the President.
http://www.stopcrush.org/ For those of you lucky enough not to know about these things, they are "snuff" films of (mostly) women in high heels torturing and killing small animals like kittens, puppies, and rabbits. They do this for the sexual gratification of the sickos who watch them.
Please keep in mind that these are videos of illegal animal torture and cruelty. Anyone caught making these films can be charged.
Recently, the Supreme Court struck down a law banning these videos on the basis that the law was too broad and infringed upon free speech. This new law attempts to be more specific and address the free speech issue (although how being able to watch animals being tortured to death falls under "free speech" is beyond me.)
There are links on

Thank you.
