Sign the Petition to California State Legislature

AB 2140 has been introduced to the California State Legislature by Assemblyman Richard Bloom. This is our best oppertunity to end SeaWorld's abusive orca shows. AB 2140, or the Orca Welfare and Safety Act, would make it illegal to "hold in captivity, or use, orcas for performance or entertainment.

The tide has turned on SeaWorld's business of orca abuse and this bill can help end it for good. Please support this groundbreaking ban on keeping orca whales in captivity!

LGBT Olympics Protest - NBC Censorship

LGBT Protest NBC Opening Ceremony of the Winter Olympics

Friday, February 7, 2014 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony - LGBT activists and human rights supporters protested outside NBC studios in San Diego due to their censorship of human rights (& animal rights) abuses in Russia. 

NBC 7 San Diego uses a backdrop painted on a construction wall for their live newscasts. The group demonstrated in front of the backdrop (which is on public property) during the 4:00pm news broadcast. NBC censored the group by putting up a screen to block the view out the broadcast window. Apparently pride flags will not be allowed to be shown next to the rainbow NBC peacock logo.
