All of us in society are supposed to believe that cruelty to animals is wrong and that it is a good thing to prevent needless suffering. So if that is true, how can meat be acceptable under any but the most extraordinary circumstances, such as perhaps roasting the bird who died flying into a window?

It's interesting that one of the definitions of the word "human" is "sympathetic." More and more people are beginning to show that they understand why that is important.

Six million Jews died in concentration camps, but six billion broiler chickens will die this year in slaughter houses.

Perhaps the mere idea of receiving a nasty missive will allow animal researchers to empathize with their victims for the first time in their lousy careers. I find it small wonder that the laboratories aren't all burning to the ground. If I had more guts, I'd light a match.

One day, we would like an end to pet shops and the breeding of animals.

All tyranny, bigotry, aggression, and cruelty are wrong, and whenever we see it, we must never be silent.

Eating meat is primitive, barbaric, and arrogant.
