Everything we do is based at adults.

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.

Even painless research is fascism, supremacism...

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.

Would I rather the research lab that tests animals is reduced to a bunch of cinders? Yes.

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

Since we can't count on the meat, egg, and dairy industries to protect animals from the most egregious forms of cruelty, what can we, as consumers, do? Opting out of paying someone to allow animals to die in a barn fire or at the slaughterhouse seems pretty reasonable.
