Semantic Games

The games of semantics continue. Even use of the term "euthanasia" is a semantic dodge.

From today's email, sent to us by an NYC rescuer:

 
...Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2010 9:52 PM
Subject: POLLY WAS EUTHANIZED - ANOTHER ONE - ONE OF SO MANY

No one came forward. She was euthanized. I called and spoke with Jess Van Brundt.

Asked if rescue had come forward and she said no. I asked if the dog was still alive and she said, the dog is no longer with us. I said, "Was euthanized?" She said, "I can't answer that."

The answer is obvious. She's dead. RIP poor Polly.

 

Here is a link to Polly's listing.
