Repeal Law to Euthanize 50,000 Stray Dogs!

BUCHAREST - Romanian Parliament voted 168-111 to pass a law which may euthanize up to 50,000 stray dogs in Bucharest and possibly thousands more across Romania's countryside. Legislators claim the bill is in the best interest of public health. Only two fatal dog attacks have been recorded since 2006 and local laws already force many strays to be sterilized and wear tags.



Many people -- and I am one of them -- believe that this legislation is a convenient ruse to allocate funds for corrupt lawmakers at the expense of innocent animals.



President Basescu, humans are meant to be responsible stewards of this planet's lifeforms. The solution to a problem is never a mass execution. Repeal this idiotic, embarrassing, and above all inhumane piece of legislation, or you will face the global wrath of those who actually care about the planet and its underprivileged inhabitants. This petition seeks 50,000 signatures -- one signature per poor dog who must die at the expense of politics.
