I am not a morose person, but I would rather not be here. I don't have any reverence for life, only for the entities themselves. I would rather see a blank space where I am. This will sound like fruitcake stuff again but at least I wouldn't be harming anything.

Every animal has his or her story, his or her thoughts, daydreams, and interests. All feel joy and love, pain and fear, as we now know beyond any shadow of a doubt. All deserve that the human animal afford them the respect of being cared for with great consideration for those interests or left in peace.

In the end, I think it would be lovely if we stopped this whole notion of pets altogether.

At PETA, we often say that the issue of how animals are treated isn't just about them; it's about us, how we behave.

Pigeon racing is a lousy, greedy, and often unlawful activity. One thing that it is not is kind to birds.
