PETA: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals!


 
I know this isn't book related, but I received some mail through the post today from PETA describing the atrocities that are occurring in China. I almost don't want to share this as it sickened me to my core, but it has to be stopped. And the only way we can do that is by raising awareness and letting the foul acts of others been known to the world so they can be stopped. And the poor creatures harmed for profit and vanity, can be saved.

Thousands of dogs and cats are being used for their fur. Stolen and starved they are then shoved into crammed cages where they then make the tortuous journey to their final destination. Then for the sake of saving a few pounds, they are killed in the most inhumane ways imaginable. Water forced down their throats until they drown, skinned alive and left on the side lines to die. All for a collar full of fur.

It's sick and completely unjustifiable.

Though the story is a sad one, it needs to be told. Otherwise how else can these sick acts be stopped and other potential victims be saved from having to experience this Hell.


 
 
Beauty. Pain.
Shedding tears a second too late.
Anger. Shame.
The finger pointed with justified blame.
Fear. Redemption.
Helping in the form of voice and donation.
Protests. Jeers.
Yelling truths for the world to hear.
Action. Laws.
Saving the lives of animals we adore.
Right. Wrongs.
Making the world a safer place to belong.
