About Me


..
Without exception, I believe that all animals have an inherent right to be free and live completely unfettered by human dominance. Sadly, most humans continue to embrace animal-slavery, animal-torture and animal-murder. Billions of animals are killed every year in a premeditated, systematic massacre.I also believes that civil disobedience and direct action (violent and nonviolent) welfare concessions/campaigns are counterproductive and ineffective.Please help free our planetary companions by reducing and eliminating cruelty from your life. Stop donating money to animal-researching charities like the March of Dimes and MDA (a list of ethical charities can be found at www.humaneseal.org.) Buy cruelty-free household and hygiene products.Condemn the bloodthirsty tradition of hunting. Curse the Ringling Bros. and Shriners circus' next time they come to town. Throw out that fur-trim jacket and burn that full-length mink. Toss those leather shoes, belts and jackets. And, most importantly, go VEGAN and refuse to consume anything that once had a face, a mother or a bowel movement. Veganism is the only way to live in absolute peace with all of our planetary companions.Don't get caught up in apathy and inaction. You can make a difference. The following quote from MLK should give you the strength to embrace animal liberation: "Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it polite?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a point when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor polite, nor popular, but one must take it because one's conscience tells him or her that it is right."

But democracy isn’t necessarily bad politics, it’s just bad math! One corrupt mind is just as evil as 1,000 corrupt minds. I’m very hurt with the apathy in our society ….over the determination of government to destroy life (not simply over the abortion issue.) I kinda think there can be no doubt that governments that are controlled by men are WIHTOUT EXCEPTION anti-life. I think for a long time I believed there would be political solutions because growing up in America we all endure so many political campaigns and they all say ‘we will do this’ and ‘we will do that’ and they make promises; and because we don’t know any better, we truly believe them. I believed (for a long time) that this was all gonna work…and I'm thankful now for Richard Nixon and for Gerald Ford and for all those people who betrayed any confidence that the American people could have in their government-- who said that the leadership of this country is not accountable to the people who elect them-- and who made so clear what we now know; that NO GOVERNMENT WORKS.
