Vegetarian Star

Olivia Munn‘s reporting on the passing Proposition B, a new law in Missouri which passed with 52% of the “yes” vote that sets down stricter rules for puppy breeders, finds her interviewing one opponent to the new measure who compares it to Obamacare and cites humans are treated the same way as puppies in mills are all the time.

When Munn asks how, the opponent replies that humans are housed in apartments that are stacked just like crates in mills.

But, as Munn insists, most apartments don’t allow your neighbor to sh*t on your head just because he’s housed above you, something puppy mills have failed to accommodate for.

Another hilarious satire from The Daily Show.

Ellen DeGeneres "Laugh.Dance.Rescue" V-Neck"

Animal activists could buy this shirt for themselves to celebrate Missouri passing Prop B puppy mill legislation.

Ellen DeGeneres is selling a V-neck t-shirt through her show’s website that benefits the Humane Society of the United States.

The “Laugh.Dance.Rescue.” shirt is available in sizes small to XX-Large, all sizes priced at only $20.

Laugh.Dance.Rescue. features an outline of a puppy with the tee’s signature title printed on the pup’s head.

A portion of the net proceeds of sales from the 100% pre-washed cotton shirt benefits HSUS.

Order. Then Laugh.Dance. and be thankful for the opportunity to help an organization that works to change laws to protect millions of pets, farm and wild animals.

Tony La Russa has stepped up to the plate to voice his support for Missouri’s Proposition B, which set standards for pet breeders and is meant to reduce some of the negative consequences of puppy mills.

No stranger to animal activism, vegetarian La Russa started an animal shelter after rescuing a cat in the San Francisco Bay area. He appears in a pro-Prop B commercial that was unveiled today.

“Thousands of dogs are crammed into small and filthy cages for their entire lives at these large scale puppy mills,” La Russa says. “No responsible pet owner would ever treat an animal like that.”

Prop B is endorsed by several animal welfare organizations, which appear in the ad, including La Russa’s own Animal Rescue Foundation, Humane Society of Missouri, Humane Society of the United States, Best Friends Animal Society, ASPCA and the Missouri Alliance for Animal Legislation.
