Ellen: You Don't Resort To Violence, Stop That
Ellen is saying that she is no longer going to speak out about Iggy on television, because the whole thing has gotten out of hand:
"Let me just say this, it's gotten out of hand," DeGeneres, 49, says on her NBC talk show in a segment set to air Thursday, according to the Associated Press. "I want nothing, nothing more than that dog returned to that family. But you don't resort to violence. So anybody out there, please stop that. Please don't threaten or do whatever."
I'm not going to rehash the whole story, because I'm getting carpal tunnel typing all that stuff out. If you're interested in reading my thoughts on the matter, you can click here for all the articles. In a nutshell, I believe that Marina Baktis appears to have a form of animal hoarding disguised as animal rescuing, she is too obsessive/compulsive in her adoption procedures, and she took Iggy under false pretenses in asking the family to fill out an application and then coming to the home only to swoop up Iggy and hold him for two hours without food, water, or potty break. Okay, I gotta stop or I'll get all upset again.
First, let me say this: Ellen, love ya. But what did you expect? You have fans out there who are, to say the least, crazazy. It's the same with any big star. And anyone who would call, email, whatever, and threaten violence against the owner and/or her store and/or her animals, their kibble done gone stale. But famous people attract this sort of obsessive devotion and that is sad. In this day and age, where Chris Crocker's "LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE!" video made him an instant celebutard, I'm sure that there were people who sought to make a name for themselves through this tragedy.
