I’m not sure I understand what you mean about exploiting animals. The majority of people eat meat in this country, do you consider growing and slaughtering beef for human consumption exploiting them?

Yes, what a dirty business it is to raise cows for slaughtering is!!!! I live on a highway but it is in a very affluent area and I pay top buck to live here. Everyday, I see slaughter truck after slaughter truck after slaughter truck drive by. The poor cows are so pathetic looking! I can't take it anymore, I want to get out of here to where I never have to see a poor cow going to the slaughter again! God help the poor cows that have been used for milk and then sent the slaughter. God help them!

It’s probably dairy farmers ditching their stock (as they have the right to do) . . . but don’t mind, someone will be by shortly to explain that a couple thousand wild horses are interfering with their God-given right to use public land to graze even more stock that we don’t need.

PETA’s Pet Killing Program Set a New Record in 2008.

Animal lovers worldwide now have access to more than a decade’s worth of proof that PETA kills thousands of defenseless pets at its Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. Since 1998, PETA has opted to “put down” 21,339 adoptable dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens instead of finding homes for them.

PETA killed 95 percent of the dogs and cats in its care last year. During all of 2008, PETA found adoptive homes for just seven pets.

Just seven animals — out of the 2,216 it took in. PETA just broke its own record.

Why would an animal rights group secretly kill animals at its headquarters?

A cattle truck is a cattle truck is a cattle truck. How does joe civilian standing beside the road know where it is going?? Every cow born today is intended to be in the food chain. That is just how it works.
