Note:
See like my dog's happy? We, human being supposed to be their FRIENDS, respect, and above all, PROTECT them. Today i saw a video, showing a LARGE and bloody killing of lot of animals. Just for use their skin as cloths, bones as keyring.... This is a SHAME, it MUST stop. I just can't live in the same world as those people. All you reading this, if you can do something, DO IT, dont buy skin of ANY KIND OF ANIMALS, they should LIVE, not DIE. If you are strong enough, stop eating meal too, you will live MORE and HEALTHY but the way. If you just can't do it. Just put yourself on their place just for a second to fell what is like to be the other side.

Está vendo como meu cachorro está feliz? Nós, seres humanos, devíamos ser AMIGOS deles, respeitá-los, e acima de tudo, PROTEGÊ-LOS. Hoje eu vi um vídeo mostrado uma enorme e sangrenta matança de animais. só pelo prazer de matar e para tirar suas peles para fazer roupas e ossos para chaveiros... Isso é uma VERGONHA, isso PRECISA parar. Eu simplesmente me recuso a viver no mesmo mesmo mundo que essas pessoas. À todos que estão lendo isso, se puderem fazer alguma coisa FAÇAM. Não comprem roupas feita com pele e couro DE NENHUM ANIMAL, eles tem que VIVER e não MORRER. Se és forte o bastante, pare de comer carne também, você com certerza viverá MAIS e mais SAUDÁVEL por sinal. Se você é incapaz de fazer isso, coloque-se no lugar deles por um segundo, pra sentir na PELE o que é ser um deles.

I received the following message about this issue after the demonstration -
"Please check out this important information about Sifton Bog's
proposed deer-management plan, which recommends bow hunting as a
means of managing deer populations. Bow hunting is both ineffective
and unimaginably cruel.
Please click the link below to send a quick note to London officials
urging them to halt plans to kill deer cruelly using bows at Sifton Bog
and instead push for long-term deer-management methods that
are more effective and humane. PETA stands ready to assist them
with this!

How bout something that saves lives(approx. 100 a year), gets you healthier and lowers your contribution to global warming at once?
Try going vegetarian, its easier than you think. Even if you are a big meat eater there are veggie substitutes to pretty much every type of meat.
I am not trying to force my views on others.I just want to give exposure to the issue. Pledge to try a meat-free diet for 30 days. You can order a free veg. starters pack too :)
Explored @ #449, thanks guys :D

Dear Hormel Foods Corporation:
I commend your zero-tolerance stance on animal abuse. I urge Hormel Foods Corporation, its international division, and all factions to take this policy to heart.
As you are aware, a 9/16/08 video depicts workers at a Hormel supplier in Iowa who batter pigs with metal gate rods. One supervisor thrusts a cane into a sow's vagina and smacks her back some 17 times. Clothespins and fingers are poked into pigs' eyes and faces. Piglet's heads are crushed against a floor and they're tossed into a bin to die. An obese worker clobbers a sow's back and reportedly sits on the animal's head. Another beats a piglet's face with the rim of a herding board, a method that
investigators saw repeatedly. An employee even spray paints the nostrils of a nursing sow.
"Beat on the bitch. Make her cry," a supervisor advises, as he kicks a young pig's face, abdomen and genitals. The dismissive nature of these workers indicates their cruelty is commonplace. How can Hormel monitor this single supplier -- let alone all its producers, transporters, and other employees -- when egregious violence toward animals is routine?
I respectfully suggest you begin with the prompt termination and criminal prosecution of workers implicated this video, along with any employees who neglect or hurt animals. Please require all Hormel suppliers to comply with basic animal welfare standards such as phasing out gestation crates. It is widely known breeding sows cannot move in these cruel confinement systems where they endure months-long pregnancy cycles.
In addition, Hormel can immediately install video surveillance cameras at factory farms. I also encourage you to take the "factory" out of farms by advocating a more natural environment. Currently, pigs are denied space, sunlight, straw bedding, mud baths or anything intrinsic to pigs.
Please put some action behind the words in "Hormel Foods Position on Humane Handling."
Thank you,

SAMPLE LETTER -- This letter is prepared to inform you about the issue.
Try to shorten and personalize your letter before sending.
=====================
Giorgio Armani Corporation, Exchange, and S.p.A:
I am very disappointed in Giorgio Armani's failure to sustain a no-fur policy. In the 2007 Time magazine article, "A Standing O for Lacroix," Mr. Armani states: "I spoke with the people from PETA and they showed me some materials that convinced me not to use fur."
Yet recent Armani collections feature fur-trimmed jackets and skirts, floral-pattern fur coats, and fur-adorned baby snowsuits. A "little fur trim" is a lot of suffering. In fact, your use of rabbit skins is so offensive, I’m inclined to boycott Armani until dead animals are eliminated.
Rabbits farmed for their fur or meat are squeezed inside tiny wire cages that cut into their non-padded paws. Before slaughter, many perish from dehydration, starvation or self-mutilation.
Killers break necks and bludgeon skulls -- smashing live rabbits against walls -- before stringing rabbits by their legs to behead them. Fur is stripped from their bodies in full view of other living rabbits.
All fur-bearing animals are killed as cheaply as possible. Pelts are often derived from genital electrocution. The killer delivers a 240-volt blast of electricity into an animal's rectum. The conscious, convulsing animal endures a heart attack for two or more minutes.
Sometimes animals are "neck-popped," injected with pesticides, or asphyxiated with carbon monoxide from unfiltered engine exhaust.
No matter how you market it, fur is synonymous with violence and death. I encourage you to join Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Kenneth Cole, Stella McCartney, Todd Oldham and other popular fur-free designers. Please notify me when Giorgio Armani is serious about cruelty-free fashion.
Thank you,
