Animal Lovers Please Comment‏

There is a news story (link below) accepting comments on the TV
Station site and I have included the responsible parties phone
and email addresses.

It has come to my attention that the state of Virginia where I
live has something else to be ashamed of when it comes to
animals.

(We've already suffered the shame of being the home of Michael
Vick the vicious, heartless fake-remorse-to-get-sympathy-and-his-
multi-million-dollar-contract-back dog
fighter, moron jock.)

Now, we have to suffer the shame of the University of Virginia
refusing to stop medical students practicing procedures on cats.

Talk about a landslide of people against them....and they still
defend their BS old school don't-tell-us-what-to-do ways.

95% of other medical schools use very advanced simulators which
are deemed by every reputable institution on earth as far better
to train on than cats which in no way resemble human babies.

Here are three people representing the University. They are all
going to here from me.

John Kattwinkel, Professor of Pediatrics....Interesting his name
starts with Katt, but anyway he looks to me like he would prefer
to be driving a model T Ford rather than taking advantage of
today's superior technology

Sandy Feldman, Attending Veterinarian ...This guy looks sleazy to
me and like he's just trying to protect his cushy job. This guy
should be sticking up for animals, not participating in their
abuse.

Here is the University President
Teresa Sullivan who so far is condoning this antiquated and
inhumane teaching method.

Please send the message the modern world does not approve of
unnecessary animal testing. I'm calling and emailing all these
people to give them a piece of my mind. I hope you do too.

Thanks for helping out animals.
