"empatheticvegan:  Boycott Heineken, they sponsor dog fights. Also watch out for the other brands they brew. EDIT: Heineken had this to say. ""Images are circulating on a number of websites showing what appears to be an illegal dogfight with Heineken banners (placed upside down) clearly visible. HEINEKEN is shocked and disappointed by this image. HEINEKEN is not and would never knowingly be associated with illegal activities, including those involving cruelty to animals. This is a gross misrepresentation of our brand and our legal team is now investigating the source of the picture and will take the necessary measures. We ask anyone with information regarding this picture such as the source, or the venue where it has been taken to contact us."" Opinion (not fact): I'm still not convinced, Heineken have the ability to find what venue these banners are hung in, so they should be doing so if they want to redeem themselves. No company that sponsors dog fights is going to come out and say ""Oh yeh we sponsor illegal activities"". Just like no company that tests on animals labels the packaging ""TESTED ON ANIMALS"".   Edit #2: ""Dog fighting has been popular in many countries throughout history and continues to be practised both legally and illegally around the world."" (source)  So they could be legally sponsoring a dog fight, since heineken is an international brand."
