DMA,concerning the dreaded "Animal Hoarder Syndrome", the number of pets I mentioned are distributed among 4 households. The pets in my family are probably treated better than the children in some other families.

maybe it's a little more sinister: 'Crush videos' decried Monday, 23 August 1999 23:03 (GMT) (ATTENTION: note nature) (UPI Focus) 'Crush videos' decried SIMI VALLEY, Calif., Aug. 23 (UPI) - Actor Mickey Rooney has joined lawmakers and animal rights activists to decry what are being called "crush videos," a type of pornography in which women wearing boots or open toed shoes crush small animals and insects beneath their feet. At a news conference today in Simi Valley, Calif., Rooney displayed still photos showing women in stiletto high heels squashing a mouse, rabbit and what appeared to be a guinea pig or hamster. "It's deplorable," Rooney said, adding that "the right of free speech does not include crushing small animals to death." Also at the news conference was Rep. Elton Gallegly, who has introduced a bill in Congress to impose a prison term of up to five years for sale of the videos. -- Copyright 1999 by United Press International. All rights reserved. vny.com
