Federal Court Orders Postal Service To Reconsider Mailing of Illegal Animal Fighting Magazines

Federal Court Orders Postal Service To Reconsider Mailing of Illegal Animal Fighting Magazines | The Humane Society of the United States: "A federal judge has ordered the U.S. Postal Service to reconsider whether the mailing of certain animal fighting magazines should be banned by the Postal Service because they violate the federal Animal Welfare Act. The ruling comes in response to a case brought by The Humane Society of the United States challenging the Postal Service's denial of The HSUS' 2006 legal petition seeking to block the mailing of advertisements for illegal fighting animals, knives and other animal-fighting paraphernalia."
