The Universoul Circus is one of Kansas City's most beloved events for urban core denizens and now the nation's most strident animal rights group is taking on their upcoming show.
Check this presser just released and sent to TKC:
Peta: Tell Kansas City Parks and Recreation to Keep UniverSoul Out!
There are specific animal cruelty allegations against contractors with the circus along with health concerns cited by the group . . .
"The cages were reportedly too small for the animals to make normal postural adjustments, and a handler admitted that the cats were kept caged 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for the entire four to seven weeks that they were on the road—and sometimes even longer. In addition, two elephants currently on the road with UniverSoul—Betty and Bo . . . Have yielded over five years of reactive tuberculosis (TB) tests, suggesting that they are likely TB-positive. These elephants risk exposing arena and circus workers, members of the public, and other animals to TB. Zebras, who are routinely part of UniverSoul's act, have escaped from the circus twice within the past six months alone, running amok through the streets."

THAT'S RIGHT, PETA CLAIMS HEALTH CONCERNS CONFRONT KANSAS CITY AS PART OF THEIR ADVOCACY AGAINST THE CIRCUS!!!
Again, these are the allegations of PETA and NOT TKC . . . Personally, Kansas City's least favorite blogger won't ever go near the circus because I'm afraid of clowns.
Still, the screen published by PETA makes some serious claims and taking the fight to city hall is an interesting tactic along with an online petition next to an animal rights donate button.
As the circus comes to town, you decide . . .
Why are they not going after the CEO of Jimmy John's (shit) Sandwiches?
ReplyDeleteBut PETA's A-OK with Riot Horses and pepper spray.
ReplyDeleteBlacks should not be allowed to even own dogs. Cats maybe.
ReplyDeleteI suspect it's going to be another slow newz day.
ReplyDelete^^^ That why you're here first thing in the morning every day for the past two weeks making the same old joke? Keep up the good work! I think the strategy is smart and sure to bring you lots of success. Hang in there, and don't lose that spirit. You're like a shiny, pony who only knows one trick!
ReplyDeleteSaw the TV ad for this "circus".
ReplyDeleteLocation: Swope Park? As if Swope Park ain't a circus NOW!
The fucking bullets will be flying at this event and nobody will see "nuttin'".
The striped-ass monkeys will be running in ten directions.
Where can I buy tickets? I'll bring my own popcorn.

ReplyDelete...is that you Cosmo?
I just love these do-gooder groups, just jam packed with folks who would otherwise be in the soup line, telling everyone else how to run their business.
ReplyDeletePETA notwithstanding, I'd favor the banning of any mass gathering of niggers. Like, more than three.
ReplyDeleteWhy isn't PETA picketing the Zoo?
ReplyDeletePETA---People Eating Tasty Animals
ReplyDeletePeta will STFU as soon as they figure out they will never win against a black organization.
