2 horses killed in the filming of "Flicka."
From: SHARKONLINE-ORG


Dear Friends,

We at SHARK continue to be shocked as we dig deeper into the unholy alliance between the American Humane Association and the producers of the Flicka movie. We have just learned that the horse who was killed on the set this past Monday during the filming of a barbaric "wild horse race" was NOT the first fatality! Another horse was killed in the making of this movie on April 11. We don't have the report yet, so we don't know the details, but we do know that at least two horses have been sacrificed for entertainment's sake and the AHA has presided over it.

An expose on the whole sickening debacle is going to air on Celebrity Justice either tonight or tomorrow night depending on where you live. Please watch!

We are providing the best contact information we have below. Please express your outrage!

1. This one is getting interesting
I hate reading the details on how the horses died. The second one seemed a little nasty. However, I am interested in how the AHA will come out of this. Several orgs have been quick to jump on the AHA's link to Hollywood and the Screen Actor's Guild. Steve Hindi and his SHARK group are notorious for digging up crap, so I guess we'll soon see...

2. I wonder how they are going to get around the disclaimer
that usually says "No animals were killed or injured in the making of this film." That's what will be interesting.

3. Thanks for the excellent link, RebelOne!
I've tried several times to kick my Coke habit but now I have the best motivation. I will toss the remaining Cokes in my fridge & write a letter to them.

I will also write about the Flicka movie.

Thanks again.

4. Shark is an excellent animal rights organization.
They campaign against rodeos, also. But I guess you have seen that when you visited their Web site.
