Hooray for Pilot! Pulled the plug on corporate sponsorship to HSUS
Just scanning over today's headlines on www.humanewatch.org. For those of you who don't know, this group has become the self-proclaimed watch dog against HSUS. Found this article today and wanted to share, thought it would be nice for us to support Pilot seeing they apparahently share some of our views.
"Apparently, it took less than two days of intense, targeted
social-media chatter for Pilot to see the writing on the wall. Pilot Travel Centers, the truck-stop and gas station chain, is no longer listed as a corporate partner on the Humane Society of the United States website. Unlike Yellow Tail, Pilot didn’t wait for international news stories to develop, consumers to revolt, and hunting rifles to make an appearance before throwing the stickshift in reverse."
Hats off to Pilot, I'll be sure to thank them for their decision in the future!
