Killing a Rat on Stage

Regarding “Plan to Crush a Rat in Performance Art Show Stirs Debate” (Jan Breslauer, Jan. 11):
As an artist and a person with compassion for all feeling creatures, I was both angered and repulsed by the proposal (of performance artist Rick Gibson) to use a sentient animal in such a cruel manner. An artist’s “rights” end where another’s life (person or animal) begins!
