Upton Sinclair, Now Playing on YouTube - New York Times
by janelane at 12:49 pm EDT, Mar 12, 2008

Several states have laws restricting photography and videography of what are broadly referred to as “animal enterprises,” including circuses, medical laboratories and ranches. And in 2006, Congress passed the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act, which makes behavior that results in damage to or the economic disruption of an animal enterprise illegal. The laws were in part a reaction to the increased use of hidden video cameras, Ms. Newkirk said.

Your pro-industry, anti-safety tax dollars at work. I thought we had a majority democratic legislation?

WTF? How does something like this get through without an uproar? So should the airlines have a law prohibiting people from making complaints about their service because it might jeopardize their ability to sell tickets? This is absurd.
