I haven't watched the video... and don't wanna watch it. Reading this article was heartbreaking enough.

Please sign the petition on the link below...



In 2007, the 'artist' Guillermo Vargas "Habacuc", took a dog from the street, tied him to a rope in an art gallery, and starved him to death

For several days, the 'artist' and the visitors of the exhibition watched emotionless the shameful 'masterpiece' based on the dog's agony, until eventually he died

This is not all... the prestigious Visual Arts Biennial of the Central American decided that the 'installation' was actually art, so that Guillermo Vargas Habacuc has been invited to repeat his cruel action for the biennial of 2008

PLEASE HELP STOP HIM

It takes a second to help put a stop to animal abuse!

Sign the petition, today...

sorry to bearer of bad news, but online petitions don't do anything

that sucks for the dog, but there are dying strays in cities all over the world just like him. most people think of them as pests. the most horrific thing i've seen was a half-eaten stray at a bus stop in athens, picked to pieces by other strays. it's so common that pretty much the only people who care are those who don't have to deal with it (americans)

A stray dog starves to death and it causes a huge outcry. A homeless man starves to death and no one cares...that is unless he dies on their street in which case they petition the city council to strictly enforce vagrancy laws.

Interesting way of showing poverty (if that was his intention), but it does not stop it from being so cruel.
