*A note about the pet shootings photos

I have started to upload some of the photos of the pets that were shot in schools, after their owners were forced to evacuate. Some of the photos are very graphic in nature, and will be pretty disturbing to anyone choosing to view them. They are not intended to horrify, but rather to tell a story of a broken system, categoric guilt and the loss of loved ones. These pets belonged to people, people who were forced to leave their beloved pets in yet another political snafu.

After such carnage, it is our duty to make sure that this atrocity NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN. To do so, the people responsible for these killings must be brought to justice and punished in full. What they did is NOT OKAY and should never have happened, not even in an emergency situation. This was not an act of compassion, or even an uneducated idea of right v. wrong. This was murder, plain and simple.

All pictures and all blog notes that contain graphic detail will be marked with asterisks. One asterisk (*) for disturbing photos/stories, and two (**) for the most disturbing.

All photos in the collection are not disturbing. I took several with school banners, posters about kindness and humanity, one with a teddy bear lying on a barren school ground. I wanted to create the whole picture.

Our feelings about this outrage are personal, but our quest for justice must be united. PLEASE HELP me--HELP US--get the right people involved who will find the people that did this and tie their hands from ever being able to make such cruel decisions again.

First, you can donate to Pasado in their ongoing necropsy and investigations:

Second, you can hit every news outlet (both online and otherwise) with this story so that it keeps running and is not forgotten.

Third, if you know of anyone with a connection to OPRAH, we're looking to bring the story to her to really make the public aware, and to give the investigation some push. If this doesn't get loads of attention, it will be forgotten, and much harder to pursue.
