About Me

THIS PAGE IS PRO-ANIMAL LIBERATION.
WHAT IS PRO-ANIMAL LIBERATION?
It’s the philosophy of allowing non-human animals to have the basic rights that all sentient beings deserve: the freedom to live a natural life, freedom from human exploitation, unnecessary pain and suffering, and premature death.
WHY SHOULD ALL ANIMALS HAVE RIGHTS?
Because life is life and it is the same in ALL humans and ALL NON-human animals. We ALL have emotions and feelings and NO ONE wants to suffer! The idea of a difference between man and other species is a human conception for man's own advantage. We all want to pursue our own lives and live in happiness.
Meet your meat: do YOU know what you are eating?
Adopting a vegetarian lifestyle not only saves countless lives, but has a considerable positive effect on our planet...
This video explains how the consumption of meat adversely affects our planet... watch it for yourself!

Animal Rights, Human Rights, Veganism, Social Justice

"The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you are alive, and die only when you are dead. To love, to be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of the life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget." - Arundhati Roy

"To become wholly compassionate we must force ourselves to look directly into the face of the suffering. Only then will we see our reflection and know that the hurt of others is equal to our own."

The question is not, "Can they reason?" nor, "Can they talk?" but rather, "Can they suffer?" -Jeremy Bentham

What if you were killed for your coat?...

Animals on fur farms are kept—sometimes for years—in tiny, filthy cages, where they are surrounded by their own waste. They spend their entire miserable lives standing on the thin cage wires, never having a chance to dig, jump, or play. The way the farmers kill the animals would break your heart—some are killed by having their necks broken or their skulls beaten before being strung up by their legs and having their heads cut off, and others are killed by anal and vaginal electrocution. Yes, you read that right...
