La ley ten\u00eda como objetivo tomar medidas en\u00e9rgicas contra los llamados videos de aplastamiento, que generalmente muestran a mujeres matando animales peque\u00f1os pis\u00e1ndolos con tacones de aguja. <\/p>\n<p>Los activistas por los derechos de los animales dicen que la ley, aprobada en 1999, ayud\u00f3 a evitar que los v\u00eddeos se vendieran a desviados sexuales. <\/p>\n<p>Pero en abril, la Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos anul\u00f3 la ley. En un fallo de 8 a 1 en un caso relacionado con el comercio de videos de peleas de perros, el tribunal determin\u00f3 que la ley estaba redactada de manera tan amplia que violaba los derechos de libertad de expresi\u00f3n de la Primera Enmienda. <\/p>\n<p>As\u00ed que ahora, con una ola de videos de enamoramiento que reaparecen en sitios web pornogr\u00e1ficos y otros sitios web il\u00edcitos, el Congreso est\u00e1 tomando medidas para prohibir la venta de videos para siempre. La C\u00e1mara aprob\u00f3 una legislaci\u00f3n en julio, de la que es coautor el representante Earl Blumenauer, dem\u00f3crata por Portland, que limita la ley de 1999 al eximir a los v\u00eddeos sobre caza y pesca, por ejemplo, o que muestren pr\u00e1cticas veterinarias y de cr\u00eda de animales habituales. El Senado est\u00e1 trabajando en una versi\u00f3n propia. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;Todos los estadounidenses pueden entender que la tortura deliberada e ilegal de animales no debe convertirse en un v\u00eddeo para su venta y producci\u00f3n comercial&quot;, dijo el senador Jeff Merkley, dem\u00f3crata por Oreg\u00f3n, que patrocina la propuesta del Senado junto con dos republicanos, los senadores. Jon Kyl de Arizona y Richard Burr de Carolina del Norte. <\/p>\n<p>Merkley, en una conferencia de prensa el jueves en la Oregon Humane Society, dijo que espera que se debata la propuesta en las pr\u00f3ximas semanas. Cuanto antes se apruebe una nueva ley, dijo, mejor. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;Hemos visto un resurgimiento de estos videos de enamoramiento&quot;, dijo Merkley. &quot;Queremos cerrar la pr\u00e1ctica lo antes posible&quot;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"javascript:openWin('http:\/\/www.oregonlive.com\/portland\/index.ssf\/2010\/09\/merkley_working_to_stop_crush.html');\"><strong>Leer m\u00e1s -&gt;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just over a decade ago, Congress passed a law banning depictions of animal cruelty.
