Group Plans Candlelight Vigil at Liberty Humane Thursday

By • Aug 31st, 2010 • Category: Blog, News

The Facebook group Liberty Humane Society Uncensored, which was created in the wake of the recent turmoil at the Jersey City animal shelter, is organizing a candlelight vigil this Thursday “to mourn the inexcusable deaths of our communities [sic] dogs and cats.”

Liberty Humane says it has euthanized 26 dogs in recent weeks; critics contend the shelter has been unnecessarily killing animals just to make more space, since the state has said the shelter is too crowded.

The vigil is scheduled for 5 pm on Thursday outside Liberty Humane Society, 235 Jersey City Blvd.

    These people are ridiculous. You are more ridiculous for even posting this nonsense on a legitimate publication.

  • Interesting….

    Agrred, JCdoglover. Last night I asked a question and it was deleted. They call themselves uncensored?
    I supported their right to protest until I read the posts threating harm to the board members families. These are a bunch of radical out of towner’s.

    One more thing to thing I would like to share. One of the main posters on this webpage http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Liberty-Humane-Society-Uncensored/121665741216260?ref=ts
    Has recently posted that the same fate should be bestowed on the board members. This can be taken many ways and sadly all they need is one nut to take this to the extreme.

    The LHS board (an attorney that likes to bully people, *cough*) just had the Uncensored page removed from fb…I guess they hit a nerve. What are they trying to hide? Maybe the fact that they have fired almost every single existing staff member in order to hire friends. Hmmm…Cronyism much?
