Honestly most all of you are so uninformed. You all need to see what is on your plate. Decayed flesh. Horror and tortue for the animals. If there were windows in a slaughterhouse no one would eat meat or dairy. None of my doctors eat it as they know it causes cancer, heart disease and all kinds of death. Jesus was a Vegan as are all the great men and woman who are of higher intelligance like Einstein, Ghandi and all the great thinkers. I deal with so much stupidity about animals all the time. People wearing dead animals. It is so frustrating to make people know that these animals who have feelings and feel don't get respect and they die a horrible death. The bodies are left to decay and rot while being transported, Why do people eat monkey brains..while the animals are alive and dogs and cats and we get offended? They are skinned ALIVE. They send cat and dog fur here for animal trim. Please go and educate yourselves first before you cast a stone at people who are trying to get attention for the animals. Please go to youtube and watch meet your meat then speak to me. This is a horror and if you don't think so you might as well be Jeffery Dalmer. Please watch this then speak. Alex Baldwin narrates this video. Watch how fur is used. Watch the chickens that can't stand from all the GH that is put into them and they are 3x the size they should be and can't stand. If you love your children you would never feed them a bit of meat or dairy. It is full of GH where boys are getting man boobies because of the GH. Plus the suffering of all the animal who are God's creations. I know you will be more informed and think differently or you have NO HEART.

Please educate yourself as to why PETA HAS to take such extreme measures before you comment watch a very short video at youtube. This is just a few minutes of what goes on and worse. If you think PETA is extreme what do you think animals that could live a long natural life plus we could feed the hungry of all the world if we stopped eating meat. It takes 30 POUNDS of grain to get ONE pound of meat. So no one on this earth would be hungry or starving if we all chose compassion over a decayed piece of flesh on their plate....visit..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIjanhKqVC4

I HAVE seen what goes on in slaughterhouses. Nobody said I eat meat, did they? I was merely pointing out that whilst PETA was having their little demonstration there was a PREGNANT WOMAN out in no clothes in 40 degree weather. Oh, and is this the same PETA that wouldn't fork over the address for the Rainbow World Exotics-otherwise known as the PetSmart suppliers so they could actually shut the place down? Yup. PETA just wanted to keep it around so they have something to protest. They don't DO anything to get these places shut down.

@italndiva

"Jesus was a Vegan"

...right. That's why he ate bread loaves and *fish*.

@andi

True that.

PLEASE TELL ME WHAT GETTING NAKED AND SHOWING YOUR OLD PUSS OFF IS GOING TO DO OTHER THAN GIVE SOME MAN A HARD ON.
PETA MAKES ME SICK AS THEY ARE A BUNCH OF NUTS

I am PETA. Anyone who can honestly say they LOVE animals. You don't eat animals if you love them.

If people care nothing about animal abuse you should care that people are starving because YOU want your MEAT...Here are the reasons why YOU could STOP the WORLD from Starvation..children...everyone.

FEED HUNGRY PEOPLE INSTEAD OF OVER-FEEDING CATTLE



There are fields and fields of grain being grown just few miles from a community of starving people, but they can't have it...

WHY? -
Because the grain that could save all the children, women, and men, is going to be shipped across seas to the US to over-feed (fatten) our cattle raised for meat. People will starve and die just so your steak can be fatter. Think about this the next time you put a piece of animal flesh into your mouth - not only does an animal lose it's life, but many humans as well.



Twenty-eight Reasons to
Stop Eating Meat

Livestock Eat Better Than Many of the World's Poor

Livestock eat the grain and soybeans that could feed the hungry. In so doing, they inefficiently convert agricultural products to a very small amount of beef.


1. Number of human beings who could be fed annually by the grain and soybeans eaten by U.S. livestock: 1,300,000,000

2. Number of people who will starve to death this year: 60,000,000



3. Number of people who could be adequately fed by the grain saved if Americans reduced their intake of meat by 10 percent: 60,000,000

4. Pounds of grain and soybeans needed to produce one pound of feedlot beef: 16

5. Number of pure vegetarians who can be fed on the amount of land needed to feed one meat-eating person: 20

6. Percentage of protein wasted by cycling grain through live-stock: 90

7. Percentage of carbohydrate wasted by cycling grain through live-stock: 99

8. Percentage of dietary fiber wasted by cycling grain through live-stock: 100

9. Pounds of potatoes that can be grown on 1 acre of land: 20,000. Pounds of beef that can be produced on 1 acre of land: 165




Animal Rights

Eating meat, of course, involves killing animals. A single visit to a slaughterhouse has been enough to convert many to vegetarianism.




10. Reason veal is so tender: Calves are never allowed to take a single step.

11. Reason veal is a whitish pink: Calvers are force-fed an anemia-producing diet

12. The McDonald's clown, Ronald McDonald, tells children: "Hamburgers grow in hamburger patches and love to be eatten." Ronald McDonald doesn't tell children: "Hamburgers are ground-up cows who have had their thoats slit by machetes or their brains bashed in by sledgehammers."



13. Number of animals killed for meat per hour in the United States: 500,000



14. Occupation with highest employee-turnover rate in the United States: slaughterhouse worker



15. Occupation with highest employee rate of injury in the United States: slaughterhouse worker



16. Cost to render an animal unconscious prior to slaughter so that process is done humanely: 1 cent. reason given by meat industry for not utilizing captive bolt pistol: too expensive



Even if we have no qualms about the slaughter of animals for food, there are serious environmental and other ethical issues involved.



The grazing of cattle, sheep, and goats for meat can have a valid place in an ecologically balanced food economy. For one thing, not all land is fit for the cultivation of food crops such as grains and beans; the soil may be poor and there may be inadequate water.



However, the number of animals raised exlusively on rangelands in America is small. Most spend a good part of their lives in feedlots. These are enclosed areas where thousands of animals are crowded together and fattened with a diet of corn, soybeans, and other potential human foods. These feedlots amount to animal concentration camps. Life in the feedlots is so unhealthy that the animals are constantly dosed with antibiotics, which poses health risks for humans. 17. Percentage of antibiotics produced in this country used in livestock feeds: 55



The animals produce manure - literally mountains of it, which if properly treated might be used as fertilizer or even as a source of methane fual. Unfortunately, it usually is treated as a waste product. It is allowed to wash away into streams, rivers, and lakes, where its high concentrations of nitrates and phosphates upset the natural ecology. The Chesapeake Bay, for example, long a major source of fish and shellfish, has become almost barren due to animal-wast runoff from farms along its source rivers.





18. Production of excrement by total U.S. human population: 12,000 pounds per second. Productions of excrement by U.S. livestock: 250,000 pounds per second



19. Percentage of harmful organic waste-water pollution attribuable to U.S. human population: 10. Percentage of harmful organic waste-water pollution attributable to U.S. livestock: 90




Wasted Water
Not only are vast amouts of water polluted by livestock - but even lager amounts are consumed in the breeding process.




20. Enought water goes into the feeding and care of the average cow to: float a destroyer.
21. Water needed to produce a pound of wheat: 25 gallons. Water needed to produce a pound of meat: 2,500 gallons

Protecting our Forests
If we eat beef, especially the cheaper varieties used in fast food outlets, there is another fact to consider. A substantial amount of this beef comes from Cental American countries where the cattle industry has been involved in the wholesale destruction of the tropical rain forests. Huge tracts of forest are cleared by bulldozers and are sown with grasses for grazing. Cattle are pastured in these areas and the meat sold at low prices to American companies. In a few years the fragile topsoil becomes depleted and the area is abandoned. The bands of massive rain forests that grid the equator is a key factor in the ecology and climate of the earth. It is being devastated in the noble cause of the cheap hamburger. A similar problem exists in the United States.

22. Number of acres of U.S. forest that have been cleared to create cropland to produce a meat-centered diet: 260,000,000 23. How often an acre of trees disappears in this country: every 5 seconds 24. At the present rate of deforestation, number of years before not a single tree will remain standing in the United States: 50 25. Amount of trees spared per year by each individual who switches to a pure vegetaian diet: 1 acre

Protecting Our Own Lives
Lastly, we all have our own health, and that of our friends and family to consider.

26. Most common cause of death in the Unided States: heart attack. Risk of death from heart attack by average American man: 50 percent. Risk of death from heart attack by average American man consuming a pure vegetarian diet: 4 percent 27. Increased risk of breast cancer for women who eat meat daily compared to women who eat meat less than once a week: four times higher 28. Leading source of pesticide residues in the U.S. diet: meat - 55 percent. Total pesticide residues in U.S. diet supplied by vegetables: 6 percent. Total pesticide residues in U. S. diet supplied by fruits: 4 percent. Total pesticide residues in U.S. diet supplied by grains: 1 percent
Finally, if you'e wondering how to select the lesser evil - beef, pork, turkey, eggs, or chicken :
it takes 16 pounds of grain and soy* fed to get one pound of Meat from Beef.

it takes 6 pounds of grain and soy fed to get one pound of Meat from Pork.

it takes 4 pounds of grain and soy fed to get one pound of Meat from Turkey.

it takes 3 pounds of grain and soy fed to get one pound of eggs..

it takes 3 pounds of grain and soy fed to get one pound of Meat from Poultry.

*Soy consitutes only 12 of Steer food and 20-25%of poultry.

god you are ignorant!

LOL I don't get it either. Do they think people would take her less seriously if she had clothes on? Yeah, right. Nothing says, "Take me seriously as an activist" like protesting in the nude.
