In his letter, ("No One Listened," Aug. 31) Robert Leppelmeir made some inaccurate claims, inaccurate conclusions and key omissions. His intent was to exonerate George W. Bush for his war against Iraq.
Re: Baby Veronica story: Isn't it just a little odd that the same attorneys in Oklahoma City and South Carolina and the adoption agency are the same parties in the Desaray case in Oklahoma City and are now representing the Capobiancos.
Correction This letter originally misspelled the name of Tulsa Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals inspector Tim Geen. The story has been corrected.
I want to openly thank Tim Geen, of the Tulsa SPCA, for all the hard work he does. I did not realize, until now that the local SPCA only have one devoted inspector, Tim Geen.
As I found out recently, he has an average of 750 neglect/cruelty complaints a year.
I've talked with and emailed him over the years. He is such a devoted man to the cause of animal rights.
As I've learned, it's so much better to help than to fine people. He finds ways to help, be it a doghouse, dog/cat food, vet service at a reduced price, whatever he can do. What a wonderful option. Instead of punitive fines he finds a way to help owners who are not "bad people" but who just need help.
Please donate to the local SPCA, in monetary donations or in food items. The SPCA is in great need of both.
I am so thankful for Tim Geen, the SPCA and other agencies like them. They give animals a "voice."
