Mr. Kauffman: Thank you for contacting us. Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade is intended to entertain the public. Our newest float with SeaWorld is being included in the 2013 Parade line-up, to illustrate the wonder of sea life in a manner that inspires millions to learn more about our oceans. While we understand that there may be differing views about this float, no other message or endorsement is intended. Great family entertainment is the sole focus of this float and of the Parade in general. Regards, Corporate Communications Macys, Inc. Customer Comments: First Name: Mr. William Last Name: Kauffman Address: 41 West Main St. City: Port Jervis State: NY Zip: 12771 Country: USA Phone: Email: altardonkey@gmail In Date/Time: 11/22/2013 1:49:45 PM Comments: I am writing to ask that you consider un-inviting Sea World from participation in this years Macy"s Thanksgiving Day Parade. I will not let my grandchildren watch it, if Sea World has a float, nor will I shop in your stores. Sea World has been terribly abusive to sentient beings, and risked the lives of their employees, sometimes resulting in death, An orca swims hundreds of miles in the wild. Sea World confines them to the equivalent of a bathtub, after buying them from people who took them from their families. Please, cancel Sea Worlds float. Thanks you, Deacon William Kauffman St. Peters Church Port Jervis, NY William Kauffman 5:50 PM (19 minutes ago) to Corporate Hello, That is the disappointing answer I expected. Sea World funds the killing and capture that goes on in Taiji, Japan, and other locations. There are less cruel ways to educate and entertain. I understand your corporate profits are involved here, and that, as a corporate communications department, you answer to an executive staff and board of directors. I did photography for corp. comm. people for many years, and know something of the lay of that land. Please convey to your executive staff that Macys has lost a life-long, very vocal customer. I ask one more time, please cancel Sea Worlds float which mis-represents the captivity and death that is the lot of the non-human slaves of Sea World, and the risk and death of Sea World Employees. Happy Thanksgiving. Bill Kauffman. -- For marriage equality for non-human rights Bill Kauffman Artist of Residence St. Peters Church stpetersportjervis.org Shepherd on!
