PARTIAL CONTACT LIST TO PROTEST KAPPAROT IN LOS ANGELES and NEW YORK
Please write and email to complain about the Kapparot ritual from every angle - It is not in teachings/law, it's archaic, not healthy, unlawful per animal sacrifice ordinances (in LA), very cruel, terrible to observe, especially harrowing for children, dirty, blood/feather debris on sidewalks and around the slaughter sites. It's disruptive to businesses and neighbors - stench, squarking of terroized chickens, debris, crowds of pro/con people and police.
(Note: When you call the temples to protest: Please remember that English is usually their second language, so please speak slowly and clearly. And be polite and professional: Do not scream at the person you're talking to.)
