Something to eat or someone to respect?
"It usually horrifies us to hear that in some countries such
as China and South Korea people cook and eat dogs and cats.
We love these animals and know they have individual
personalities but there is no difference between this and
what we in the UK do to equally smart, sensitive pigs."
Reasons
"Society has advanced by questioning oppression such as
sexism and racism. But most of us still take part in the
largest and most violent form: speciesism,
discriminating against others for belonging to a
different species... SIMPLY FOR NOT BEING HUMAN."
Animal Equality (Educate | Investigate | Liberate)
"Animal Equality is an international non-profit
organisation dedicated to achieving equal consideration
and respect for animals and promotes a vegan lifestyle."
"Male chicks in the egg industry are shredded alive,
"free-range" hens are packed into huge warehouses and
killed after little more than a year, pigs and sheep in
organic Soil Association-approved slaughterhouses
have been films being kicked, hit and forcibly thrown."
