Accountability in Our Diets

If you wouldn’t personally castrate an animal without anesthetic,

if you wouldn’t work at a factory farm,

if you wouldn’t take a baby away from his mother,

if you wouldn’t brand someone’s skin,

if you wouldn’t cut off beaks, toes or tails,

if you wouldn’t deprive someone of light,

if you wouldn’t deny someone space to stretch or even walk,

if you wouldn’t drive the transport truck,

if you wouldn’t use the bolt gun or the electric prod or wield the knife,

why would you support the end product?

“A slave of the flesh and dairy industry gives loving affection to a cat passing by.  She will spend her short existence being utilized as a machine to generate inordinate amounts of milk whilst enduring severe stress, pain and be forced to watch her babies taken to slaughter. When she has endured more abuse than her body can cope with and her milk yield grows poor, she will then be horrifically slaughtered, herself…

 This is your steak, begging for love and mercy.” -Anthony Damiano
