Keep in mind the state of California is practically bankrupt and threatening to cut school buses, shut hospitals and stop road construction for lack of money. <\/p>\n<p>LA Zoo keepers apparently maintained that all zoos have elephants. Uh, good point. Let&#39;s&#0160;let the gorillas go, too. They get depressed as well. In fact, Zoos suck now that you mention it, zoo keeper. Animal activists have (for decades) maintained that animals get poor care in zoos and have shorter lifespans due to depression and illness. It\u2019s bigger than the elephants but I suppose you have to start somewhere.<\/p>\n<p>Cher said, &quot;It doesn&#39;t make it right because we&#39;ve had other things we&#39;re ashamed of. We had slavery and you know, it wasn&#39;t right.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>Councilman Tony Cardenas introduced a motion to move Billy to a sanctuary. Bob Barker, known animal advocate (spay or neuter your pet) and alleged former Price-is-Right-Barkers-Beauties fondler, had previously offered to $1.5 million dollar to help move Billy.<\/p>\n<p>Cher ran afoul of City Hall\u2019s 60-second limit placed public speaking during hearings.

But she continued. I don&#39;t think that&#39;s such a rare occurrence at those things.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not a fanatic. I just love animals, like most Americans,\u201d Cher said. After my years of animal activism-ing, I&#39;m not so sure most Americans love animals, myself.&#0160;<\/p>\n<p>But after&#0160;Cher spoke, standing among the throng of everyday Joe&#39;s (it looks unusual, doesn&#39;t it?), Lily Tomlin, Tippi Hedren, and&#0160; Kevin Nealon spoke. Their arch enemies in the fight were zoo supporters Betty White and Slash, formerly of&#0160; Guns N\u2019 Roses. <\/p>\n<p>Zoo lovers!<\/p>\n<p>Maybe we should sick the Animal Defense League on the case.
