Animal activists petition to stop sale of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus stamps.

The US postal service has issued a new series of circus stamps. This glorifies the terrible abuse of animals, including elephants. They are smart and loving animals, who need more space to live natural lives and socialize with others of their kind. They mourn the deaths of other elephants, and some have cried when freed from this terrible captivity.

Compassion is among the better American traits. Have a heart. Animal circuses aren’t needed, and certainly shouldn’t be celebrated by our government.
