Earthlings! Got Cabin Fever? Feeling Cooped Up?

Yeah... It's brutally frigid everywhere isn't it? Half the lucky world is hunkered down, protected from the bitter cold- But even four warm walls can become a prison after a while... Imagine a whole "life' of captivity? So, if you're a bit stir-crazy being temporarily home bound... But you still don't get the urgency of ending animal use AND suffering; Now would be a great time to - Watch Earthlings

This video is of course some of the things that happen, but most farms do respect their animals, this is not right when the vegans can depict the whole animal industy as being like this, which it is defiantely not.

If you eliminate the "use" you eliminate the suffering. There is absolutely no NEED for any human, who lives in "civilization", to rely on animal parts or pieces to survive. Indeed, we can thrive on a plant based diet.

Your definition of "respect" mystifies me...

Animals don't really think, so they don't sit around wondering when they go to market, most people realize they were put on earth to be part of the food chain, except the Vegans, of course.

Animals don't think... Hummm, well, in your case we may agree that some human animals indeed DON'T THINK.

"Food chain"? I am not "chained" to anything - least of all my choice of nourishment... Chains can and often are broken. Yes indeed Vegans are working towards this happy end! :)

No you are wrong, you probably have no children, so you want to save all other animals, an animal is an animal, actually they can be very mean and destructive, kinda like the vegans. Stick with your nuts and watch your body deteriorate before your very eyes.

Hello Anonymous - I am 55 years old --- What does having children have to do with speaking up for exploited animals? Actually, when one speaks up for the oppressed, unheard or abused - They speak for all. Empathy, compassion or justice should not be limited to any one species. Fair treatment applies to all who could benefit from such.

I have not been "mean" - Perhaps brutally honest. And I don't think it's bad to destroy systems that harm Others. It's called education and self defense.

"Stick with your nuts and watch your body deteriorate before your very eyes." Thanks for the good natured, well reasoned "advice".
