We All Deserve Freedom

Here is a powerful statement against circuses from a kidnapping survivor, Natascha Kampusch:

Natascha Kampusch had to spend more than eight years in a tiny room after being kidnapped in Vienna when she was only ten years old. In 2008, when she was 18 years old, she managed to escape. [...]

“It is now up to Minister Aigner to decide whether social, intelligent and beautiful living beings should continue to be humiliated because ruthless or naïve people keep them chained in cages – depressed, broken and limited to an amount that prevents them from living a normal life according to their needs. Animals, too, would run away if they could, just like I took my chance to escape. Because a life in captivity is a life full of deprivation”, says Natascha Kampusch in a press release  (link here)
