Kill the Kill Shelters

To:  U.S. Congress

We, the undersigned endorse the following petition:

Kill the Kill Shelters!

This petition is to make kill shelters in the United States illegal. Every 6 seconds an animal is killed at kill shelters in the U.S. Kill shelters kill animals even if they are healthy and don't have behavioral issues. Shelters don't always euthanize the animals either. Some shelters inhumanely end the animals lives by sticking them into a box and pumping toxic gas into it. Not only do kill shelters end innocent lives, they prevent someone from having the ideal pet they have long been searching for. Although animals can't speak, we as humans do not have the right to do whatever we please with them. Especially killing them just for the heck of it and throwing them out like trash.The animals being killed could have the best personality you could find anywhere. In the video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94wJKnKFhUI) there are puppies being put in a box, on top of other dead animals, not knowing they will be killed just because they are is an inconveniance to the shelter. This must stop! Killing an animal simply because they haven't been adopted is not an excuse nor is it fair to both the animals and fellow human beings.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
