About the Video: THIS IS AN URGENT ACTION ALERT: S 1959 "Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007". FREE SPEECH IS NOT A CRIME!!!
"The word 'veganism' denotes a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude ? as far as is possible and practical ? all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, including humans and the environment.
Once we start thinking about what it means to be truly kind, the circle of compassion becomes wider and wider. Ultimately, it encompasses all beings and benefits everyone.
Being Vegan isnt about being perfect or pure,it's about reducing suffering.
~Vegan Outreach
We should not let species determine the wrongness of taking life.
~Peter Singer
As long as there is conscious life on Earth, there will be suffering. The question becomes what to do with the existence each of us is given. We can choose to add our own fury and misery to the rest, or we can set an example by simultaneously working constructively to alleviate suffering while leading joyous, meaningful, fulfilled lives. Being a vegan isn't about deprivation or anger. It's about being fully aware so as to be fully alive.
~Matt Ball, Vegan Outreach

My Interests

I am the voice of the voiceless;
Through me the dumb shall speak,
Till the deaf world's ears be made to hear
The wrongs of the wordless weak.
And I am my brothers keeper,
And I will fight his fights;
And speak the words for beast and bird
Till the world shall set things right.
- Ella Wheeler Wilcox

These are just some of the faces who need our voice!

STOP COVANCE CRUELTY!!!
www.covancecruelty.com

Hundreds of thousands of dogs suffer in puppy mills in this country. The dogs are prisoners of greed. They are locked in small cages. They freeze in the winter and swelter in the summer. The dogs never get out of their prisons. They are bred over and over again until they die. The only way to free them from the misery of these horrid puppymills is to eliminate the demand for puppies by refusing to buy a puppy in a pet store and boycotting those pet stores that sell puppies. When people stop buying puppies in pet stores, the puppy mills will go out of business and the misery will end. The state and federal governments do not enforce the laws to protect the dogs. The commercial breeders and brokers have huge well-funded lobbying efforts. Please join this fight to free the prisoners of greed. The only person who is going to make a difference for the dogs suffering in puppy mills is you. You, the people, can free them from their puppy mill prisons.
