hmm... about me?
I live by the Atlantic Ocean. I always wanted to go to Veterinarian school to be a vet, but never did. (I guess I let that dream slip away from me.) I did work as a vet tech for a few years and loved it. I have one very big dog, his name is Jeremy. He's a Turkish breed called Anatolian Shepard. I also have six stray ferrel cats that I rescued.(Camo, Chester, Rudy, Puff, Cricket and Dobby. (You can find them all in my photo's... and as always, more photos coming.) Stray ferrel cats make the best pets ever!! I'm Vegan and proud of it. Going Vegan was the best thing I have ever done in my life... And really, it's the best thing anyone could for the animals, the environment and themselves!! I very much enjoy cooking vegan foods... They are quite delicious! I hope to start blogging some of my recipes soon. I'm also an animal rights activist. I strongly support animal liberation, Peta, anyone out there fighting for the animals, and those who do what ever it takes to free every animal of abuse and human greed/ignorance. Amoung that, I hate government bullshit and I hate the corporate greed and lobbying that runs rampant in the world. I truly despise people who wear fur... it turns my stomach inside out when I see such thoughtless greed and ignorance. Ok, on a happier note, I love creating OOAK Dolls, B&W photography, writing, and going to concerts. I have alot of interests, which you can see I have listed. My biggest obsession is animal rights, animal liberation... and Joaquin Phoenix!! A few of my favorite peeps and influences are Peter Young, Keith Mann, Rod Coronado, Ingrid Newkirk, The SHAC7....
~~Peter's Statement to the Court~~ The following is Peter Young's statement to the court at his sentencing on November 8th, 2005. As Peter did a large amount of improvisation, the below text is not a verbatim record, but an approximate account based on his notes and the memory of supporters in the courtroom. "This is the customary time when the defendant expresses regret for the crimes they committed, so let me do that because I am not without my regrets. I am here today to be sentenced for my participation in releasing mink from 6 fur farms. I regret it was only 6. I'm also here today to be sentenced for my participation in the freeing of 8,000 mink from those farms. I regret it was only 8,000. It is my understanding of those 6 farms, only 2 of them have since shut down. I regret it was only 2.More than anything, I regret my restraint, because whatever damage we did to those businesses, if those farms were left standing, and if one animal was left behind, then it wasn't enough. I don't wish to validate this proceeding by begging for mercy or appealing to the conscience of the court, because I know if this system had a conscience I would not be here, and in my place would be all the butchers, vivisectors, and fur farmers of the world.Just as I will remain unbowed before this court- who would see me imprisoned for an act of conscience- I will also deny the fur farmers in the room the pleasure of seeing me bow down before them. To those people here whose sheds I may have visited in 1997, let me tell you directly for the first time, it was a pleasure to raid your farms, and to free those animals you held captive. It is to those animals I answer to, not you or this court. I will forever mark those nights on your property as the most rewarding experience of my life.And to those farmers or other savages who may read my words in the future and smile at my fate, just remember: We have put more of you in bankruptcy than you have put liberators in prison. Don't forget that.Let me thank everyone in the courtroom who came to support me today. It is my last wish before prison that each of you drive to a nearby fur farm tonight, tear down its fence and open every cage...That's all."
