		<description>Also read &quot;An Orca named Lolita&quot; for more information on this wonderful orca who needs to be retired. She has performed for 39 years. She has earned her retirement and deserves to live out her days with quiet and dignity. There is a natural sea pen waiting for her in Kanaka Bay, on the west side of San Juan Island in Washington. She will be re-taught how to fish and hopefully will one day rejoin L pod, her family. The choice will be hers. If she chooses human companionship, then that will be provided for the rest of her life.</description>

		<description>This treatment of sentient animals leaves me beyond tears and I have difficulty in accepting that I am the same species as the muck that are torturing animals in this way.  Rest assured, this will be the next massive battle ground for the animal rights activists to take part in and they only deserve our full support.  Our full support, in every way, until the  job is done.  The very first step is to legislate in the area of animal protection to  prohibit cruelty to animals.  However, this is only to scratch the surfacteof what has to happen. Full animal liberation must be our goal.  It has taken the west long enough to waken up, now, China must be made to waken up far quicker!  We must do everything we can to help the growing animal rights activists in China</description>

		<description>When is the rest of the world going to impose sanctions on these monsters?  It is other world powers that allow this kind of thing happening, if there is no market it will stop.  Allowing the Olympics to be held in China was a mistake but the powers that be don&#039;t give a damn, they only worry about their pockets.  The day the rest of the world close their markets to China until they implement proper animal and human rights we will see a huge change.  Come on Mr. Mbeki, show us your caliber, come on Mr. Bush show us how much you care about your fellow creatures, go on Mr. Smith this is your chance to shine ...

The list is endless!</description>

		<description>If China treats their people cruelly &amp; have no human rights, what can be said about the way they treat their animals?! I can not help but hate the Eastern nations for what they do to poor, defenceless animals. They are evil &amp; cruel to the core &amp; I hope that they will one day feel the pain &amp; suffering that they inflicted on the innocent. The Bible says that what you reap you will sow. I find it compelling that these countries are hit by so many natural disasters. Nature fights back. We may share this planet with other species of plant &amp; animals, but we have NO right to abuse them.
What on this planet don&#039;t they eat?!?! Cats, dogs, cockroaches, sea stars, even aborted human babies!!! They are a sick nation with no compassion or concience. I do not watch the Olympic Games on TV, I will not support this cruel country &amp; their oblivious government &amp; people. Beijing should never have been considered for the Games. It makes me sick to think that these practices are accepted in this day &amp; age. And yes, I&#039;m a vegan &amp; an animal activist. Stop the cruelty! Stop living in denial of what they&#039;re doing.
May God have mercy on their souls, because if it was up to me, they would rot in hell.

		<description>Stop the torture and killing of our animals!!!I It is totally inhumanand in this day and age to have such acts of horrific abuse is shocking and to have them get away with such torture of animals is crazy.

China - I have nothing but contempt for their miserable treatment of animals.  They must be stopped from committing such terrible abuse on animals - they must be stopped - Cruelty of such epic proportions must come to the attention of other world leaders - they must be implored to stop China from abusing and killing our animals.  World leaders must come down hard on China - put in laws and regulations and let&#039;s do something about making China know that people do not condone what they do to animals - let them know our hatred of their terrible and cruel treatment of animals and that we won&#039;t stand for it anymore!!!!!!!!!!!</description>
