Fishing interests in Virginia and North Carolina are lobbying to exempt certain sharks from a law designed to ban the cruel practice of shark finning. We need your help to stop them!

Signed and forwarded. Thanks Cher. Added my comment and hope it helps--

It we don't stop the mindless plunder and pillage of our wildlife and natural resources, we'll soon have nothing left to protect and preserve for our children. Sharks are not expendable and we endanger the health of the oceans at our very great peril. The oceans are the foundation for all life on Earth and if we do enough damage we'll pay for it hundreds of times over and our children will curse us with their dying breaths. Sound extreme? Not really - look at the damage we done and the messes we've made. Consider what they'll have to clean up after even assuming the messes can be cleaned up. This has got to stop. We simply cannot afford it any more. And the heck of it is, some people never consider that our children will know exactly what we were willing to do for them and what we were too selfish to do for them.
