Breanna Lucci, a student at Massachusetts' Academy of Notre Dame high school, has a bone to pick with Activision. (Which, we imagine, she'll later give to her two Pomeranians, "Fluffy" and "Winnie The Pooh.&quot Lucci, the president of her school's Animal Rights Club, is upset by the need to shoot Nazi attack dogs in Call of Duty: World at War. So, she's started a petition.

"Parents need to know what they are buying their kids. Killing animals should not be a form of entertainment," Lucci told the local Lowell Sun. She was first introduced to the game's canine genocide while watching her college aged brother playing. "My little 12-pound Pomeranian, Winnie the Pooh, is sitting next to him, and I'm thinking, 'This looks horrible!'" Although she's sure her brother "won't be killing dogs after playing," she believes "some people might."

Lucci plans to forward her petition, which has been signed by more than 100 of her fellow students, to Activision. Contrary to some petitions aimed at game publishers, hers is simply a show of disgust, and does not call for any executives to be fired, boiled alive or hung by their feet until dead. You go, girl.

Well hell some one need to post the tree hugger a link to the game POSTAL not only can you shoot dogs, but you can bash them with a shovel, taze them with a tazer and if you keep tazing, *dogs or people in the game* after there down they'll piss on their selves, oh you can also lure dogs, and cops, into dark ally ways by leaving trails of doughnuts. sheesh not to mention wip out your wang and wiz on every npc in the game including the animals, and laugh your ass off at the outcome. And for the cat lovers of the bunch lets not forget the kitty silencer, riffle/shotgun attachment, ever wondered what would happen if you put a cat on and end of a high caliber assult rifle/ shotgun and pull the trigger? well go download the game and find out. The GIMP suite is classic, tis all im going to say about that.

100 of her fellow students signed a "show of disgust" petition. That'll teach them. Brav-the-fuck-o little girl. Way to stand up to the man. They won't make games like that anymore. How about being pissed off at Nintendo. In Mario brothers you jump on turtles and spit fire at them.

How about charging you with animal cruelty. Whats next? Protest animals for wearing a fur jacket.

Animal cruelty laws in Mass.

Proper food and water --Your overfeeding them. Pomeranians range in size from 3 to 7 pounds, with the ideal weight for the show specimen being 4 to 6 pounds.

Shelter or protection from the weather --Letting your dogs go to the bathroom outside in the cold weather.

Veterinary attention needed to reduce or end suffering from disease or injury --Choking on a condom you forgot to throw away last night.

A sanitary environment -- While you protest. They are shtting on the carpet while you protest dumb shit.

To willfully abandon an animal -- Ignoring your dogs while you protest dumb shit instead of taking care of your dogs.
