Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 CutoutDissection.com is teen's new name The girl changes her legal name to protest animal dissections in schools Video: Strange news updated 1:30 p.m. PT, Mon., Oct. 13, 2008 ASHEVILLE, N.C. - A 19-year-old Asheville teenager said she legally changed her name to CutoutDissection.com to protest animal dissections in schools. The Asheville Citizen-Times reported that Asheville High graduate Jennifer Thornburg now wants to be called Cutout. Her new legal name is the Web address for an anti-dissection page of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals' site. The teenager said she began opposing dissections in middle school, after a class assignment to dissect a chicken wing made her uncomfortable. She helped create a policy at her high school that allows students who object to dissections to complete an alternative assignment. Fascism, like socialism, is rooted in a market society that refused to function. A financial system always devolves, without heavy government control, into a Mafia capitalism -- and a Mafia political system. A self-regulating market turns human beings and the natural environment into commodities, a situation that ensures the destruction of both society and the natural environment. Karl Polanyi Quote
