Rights of Killer Whales?

The 13th Amendment of the United States Constitution was intended to abolish domestic slavery and involuntary servitude. The authors would probably be surprised to learn 146 years later that same mandate is being used to justify constitutional rights for 5 killer whales who "perform" at Sea World in San Diego, CA and Orlando, FL.
