New York City's Animals Desperately Need Your Voice
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Obviously our hearts go out to every human being affected by the tragedy at the World Trade Center. This terrible tragedy has serious repercussions for animals, too. Due to the tremendous loss of human lives, there will undoubtedly be many animals left orphaned. Other animals are trapped in buildings that have been evacuated and to which people have learned they are unable to return. PETA's headquarters is receiving calls from desperate New York City residents whose companion animals are trapped inside now vacated apartments, some so close to the World Trade Center that the animals inside can only be highly traumatized by the explosions, the sirens, the noise, the shaking ground, the smoke, and now the unexplained absence of their families. We know of at least one 13-floor building, 120 Greenwich Street, practically across the street from the World Trade Center, where more than 20 dogs and an undetermined number of other companion animals are locked inside apartments without food or water or comfort.
These animals need your immediate help.
Mayor Giuliani has a poor record when it comes to animals. In 1998 he refused to allow desperate New Yorkers whose apartment building's scaffolding collapsed, the opportunity to tend to or rescue their beloved animals for more than five days, leaving animals to become dehydrated and starving.
Please urge Mayor Giuliani to set up a task force to locate and rescue animals in need. To many of this disaster's victims and their families, these beloved animals are members of the family and would be a great source of comfort.
PETA and other animal protection groups are willing to send trained rescuers into the buildings to take the animals out, if given the chance. We will sign waives of liability in the event of any injury or death. United Animal Nations (UAN.org), can offer assistance with mobilizing volunteers and rescuing and caring for abandoned animals.
Mayor Giuliani's address is:
Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani
City Hall
New York, NY 10007
Tel.: 212-788-9600
Fax: 212-788-7476

If you have a difficult time getting through to Mayor Giuliani due to phone line trouble, please don't give up; keep trying.

Well, these are people who would rather kill themselves than see another animal die, despite their place on the food chain.
Yes, it's those lovable people of PETA, again. The huggy-feely bunch that used to mean good, now they are being anal and COUNTERPRODUCTIVE. In fact, THEY ARE HURTING OPERATIONS TO FIND YOUR LOVED ONES! THEY ARE HURTING THE OPERATIONS TO HELP THE INJURED! THEY ARE JUST USING THIS TO BE AN ANNOYANCE TO THE MAYOR!
Those who have loved ones trapped in the buildings, you can thank Peta because the NYC's Mayor's office was too busy answering harassing phone calls by people who are worried about 20 or so dogs and animals rather than the THOUSANDS of people that might be trapped and still alive.
Yes! You can thank these wastes of flesh that are concerned with tying up the Mayor's office to dick-wave over the phone, while the Mayor could be more concerned with smaller trifles (in their eyes, at least), like organizing rescue crews and other important stuff. These wastes of air don't really get it that they could tie up the lines that could have been an important phone call.
Oh, but it gets even better.
"If you have a difficult time getting through to Mayor Giuliani due to phone line trouble, please don't give up; keep trying."
In other words, hammer his phone and fax so you can bitch your self-righteous and useless couch-dwelling fat ass off at someone who is already up to his ass in alligators. Of course, after once or twice, he's just going to hang up on your clueless sods. Don't you just love it when someone uses trite details to make themselves feel good at the cost of saving lives?
You STUPID, WORTHLESS...nah, I was tempted to call them people, but they are more worried about harassing someone with their self-righteous crap over 20 dogs instead of getting their lazy asses up and volunteering to help the people that might still be alive and the injured. Instead of helping, you're harassing someone who helps organize the emergency teams. What little respect anyone could have is now gone. Beat it, PETA.
Yeah, go put that topless painted lady with stripes and fuzzy-cutesy ears in a cage right next to the rubble. I give her about 20 seconds before her ass is beat to a messy death.
By the emergency crews.
