Dear
:
I am writing to you regarding the Korean Animal Protection Act (KAPA). I
understand that this law needs to be enforced and strengthened. I implore of
you, please stop the torturing and consumption of dogs and cats. I am
pleading with you to STOP this egregious industry of misery and suffering for
millions of our kind furry friends. Until the suffering of ALL dogs and
cats in South Korea ends permanently, I am advising you that I cannot and will
not support the South Korean economy by purchasing its products and goods.
There is nothing traditional about torture, so attempts to convince foreigners
and new generations of South Koreans that torturing animals is acceptable
behavior is preposterous. Those who promote dog and cat torture enjoy
beating them to death while listening to them scream and cry in agony.
South Korean men justify strangling, beating, and blow-torching dogs to death by
saying it increases their sexual virility and energy. They say dogs enjoy
these beatings because of their loyalty and devotion to mankind. They
continue to justify their obscene, vicious behavior, as they acquire more votes
to attempt to legalize dog torture. This mind set equals big bucks among
the powers that be, and therefore the Korean Animal Protection Act (KAPA) is not
enforced.
I warn you, I stand strong with thousands of others in boycotting South Korean
trade until the Korean Animal Protection Act is fully strengthened and enforced.
Sincerely,
Date here
To Whom It May Concern:
We would like to express our outrage and horror at the inhumane treatment of domestic animals in South Korea.
We have seen evidence in the media and on the Internet, that in South Korea, it is common to eat dogs and cats. This is not done in a humane manner, but by torturing them to death by hanging, strangulation, and beatings with such objects as bricks, large rocks, heavy rod-like objects and electrocution. These poor creatures die a very slow and painful death.
It has also been proven that South Koreans torture cats by hitting them on the head repeatedly with hammers, by placing them in sacks which are then pounded on the ground, or by other methods that produce slow and painful death.
Many times these animals have their fur blowtorched off while still alive, to save time in preparation. These animals are also kept in unsanitary conditions without proper elimination areas and no food or water prior to their gruesome deaths.
Please know that my family members and I will be encouraging all sponsors of the World Cup, to be hosted by South Korea in the year 2002 (Adidas, Budweiser, Canon, Coca-cola, FujiFilm, Gillette, JVC, Mastercard, McDonalds, Opel, Philips, and Snickers) to examine the facts before continuing to endorse this event in your country.
We cannot support this horrible behavior and endorse a country that condones it. Please do something to stop this atrocity now!
Sincerely,
Your Family Name Here
