People are the most selfish, greedy and cruel beings on the face of this planet. They attack each other, children and innocent animals. I know there many good people out there, but not enough of us to make a difference, it is so sad and leaves me feeling helpless. How do all these monsters get away with inducing pain on the innocent wether they be man or beast?? Maybe they are not human, they do not have a heart or feel any compassion for anything not even for their own. I just cannot believe what this world has come to.

Note that I am being careful tagging this event for what it really is. I am a fine artist. If any I earned the right to be called so, by persistence through 30 years of artistic struggle. I am profoundly offended by this "effectist" gimmick. It is not only an aberration but a poor and ill fated communication tool chosen to try to send a message that got lost in the sadistic delivery. I was quick to sign the petition, How could you not. Sadistic bastards need to be told that this is not only unacceptable; it is just wrong and there is no place in life, neither art for such - not even original - ugly act. I read your article. And I thought: good, the more outraged people the better. But there is something I need to tell you. I also come from a south american country and I now very well how thing could work in such countries. Just as here in America, my home and country for the last 16 years, the left hand sometimes does not know what the right hand does. I guarantee you, the good folks of Costa Rica as as outraged as you and I are. bashing the country for the stupidity of one individual - probably handpicked by a very small unassertive group of people - is really punishing the wrong target. Focus, my friend: Guillermo Vargas had a very bad idea, supported by very short minded people. These are the bad guys. Not the regular Juan y Juana from Costa Rica. Aim your anger at him and the croonies that made this thing happen. Those are the ones that need to be bashed, hated and make go away. After all, most of us are outraged with what is been happening in Iraq, as is the rest of the world, and technically all us Americans are not guilty... are we?

(Where He Is From) If You People Would Just Look Into It A Little And Realize That All He Did Was Put The Dog In One Place So People Could Actually See What Thousands Of Dogs Are Going Through Daily In ONE Country, Not The World.

If Theres Not, Step Away From Your Computer For A Bit And Make One If Youre That Angry. Now If He Starts Doing This To Many Dogs, That Would Be Unnecessary, And Should Be Stopped At Once. Dont Get Me Wrong, I Love Animals Just As Much As Anyone Else. Expecially Dogs. Ive Grown Up Around Them All My Life And Will Eventually Have A Few Myself. But If It Takes One Person, Im Not Going To Call Him An Artist Because That Wasnt Art, To Get Hundreds Of Thousands Of People Angry Just To Point Out A Major Problem In His Country, Then Its Worth It. Now Maybe People Will Actually Make A Group Or Donate To An Existing Group To Fix This. If You Took The Time To Read This, Then I Would Like To Hear What You Thought About It. I Dont Want One Sided People Who Are Always Going To Just Sit There And Say That Its Wrong No Matter What They Are Told. If Your Opinion Differs From Mine, Thats Fine.

It's funny how so many people are complaining about this, yet not one viewer ever tried to help the dog. It is art because everyone accepted it as an art piece and everyone who saw this piece is responsible for the dogs death. Yes it is very sad, but would this issue have been brought to light if it were not for this artist to show us how it really is?
