Punishing him will not stop others from doing it, but he must face the penality for his actions. I agree that the issue is bigger than him, but he has brought the issue into the spotlight. |
I am glad he has bought it to the spotlight and I am glad for people like Whoopi who constantly cross over cultural boundaries and are not afraid to keep it in the spotlight until a change comes about.
You can send all the hate mail you want about Whoopi but keep in mind with her stance and love for people and animals she can be one person who is able to put money into a real specific program to help stop this specific violence toward animals.
