Youth commentary: Blackfish inspires bill to end Orca captivity

Inspired by Blackfish, a documentary which shed light on the abuse and negligence of orca whales at SeaWorld,  Richard Bloom, a democratic assemblyman in (D-Santa Monica) introduced a bill to outlaw orca captivity in California.  Those who support the bill see it as a victory for animal rights.  "SeaWorld, a multi-billion dollar company, and most marine parks (if not all), is not in the business of taking care of animals. They only care about making profit by entertaining, and supposedly educating, paying audiences."  One youth reporter who supports the bill explains why, on South Kern Sol.
