Make Crush Videos ILLEGAL

There was a recent decision made by the Supreme Court of Justice that the online Crush videos (usually where women in high heeled shoes crush animals to death) is a freedom of speech and will not be banned from the internet. This is not only wrong, but horrific and something must be done to change this decision. Please sign this petition if you are AGAINST Crush videos, wish to see them removed off the internet and agree that ALL animal abuse should be illegal and should be a felony.

Here is more information on the case:

"WASHINGTON (April 20) -- The Supreme Court struck down a federal law Tuesday aimed at banning videos that show graphic violence against animals, saying it violates the right to free speech.

The justices, voting 8-1, threw out the criminal conviction of Robert Stevens of Pittsville, Va., who was sentenced to three years in prison for videos he made about pit bull fights.

The law was enacted in 1999 to limit Internet sales of so-called crush videos, which appeal to a certain sexual fetish by showing women crushing to death small animals with their bare feet or high-heeled shoes.

But Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the majority, said the law goes too far, suggesting that a measure limited to crush videos might be valid. Animal cruelty and dog fighting already are illegal throughout the country.
