Tommy Lee has once again voiced his opinion regarding animal cruelty. This time requesting a stop to the chuckwagon racing at Calgary Stampede.
Lee, even took time to pen a letter to Calgary MLA and Alberta premier Alison Redford. Alas, Redford is quite absorbed in her world of self importance as a politician and big oil money, it is probably safe to say that Lee may as well blow hot air out of his ass.
Keep trying Tommy!!
