Horses Packed Live for Slaughter!

Wow!  These race horse make millions for these people from the hard work they put in, and this is what they get in return.  Insanely greedy!

Breaking Investigation: Horses’ 36-Hour Journey to Slaughter Exposed

PETA investigators recently went incognito to a livestock auction in Kalona, Iowa, where, by examining the horses’ lip tattoos, they found Royale With Speed, a thoroughbred racehorse and a grandson of Triple Crown winner Secretariat. He was one of hundreds of panicked horses packed into crowded “kill pens”—where the animals are held before being sold for eventual shipment in cramped trucks to slaughterhouses in Canada and Mexico. Royale With Speed was severely exhausted, running a fever, and suffering from lymph nodes so swollen that they had burst and were oozing through the skin, yet he was slated to be killed for human consumption.

Greedy Humans Should Be Put in Chains

I think the greedy human’s who are destroying our world around us should be the ones put in chains, not these other animals who have more respect for it than they do.  I mean anyone who advocates for the destruction of wildlife for the sake of their own greed.  They allege that they have a right to the land over these other animals, but I have to ask why they need the land.  People already have more than enough land, they already took land from other peoples who had more respect for the land and the environment.  Now these greedy people, just keep taking more and every time they end up destroy and polluting that land.  They should be criminalized.

UN gives final approval to biodiversity science panel

The UN has given final approval for the establishment of an expert panel to advise governments on science and policy issues relating to biodiversity.

Endorsement came at the UN General Assembly in New York.

The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) will assess evidence on the causes and effects of nature degradation, and policy options.

Details will be worked out during the first few months of next year.

The new organisation is roughly modelled on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and will be similarly charged with providing “gold-standard” reports to governments.

Discussions on establishing it have been going on for more than two years, and a decision in principal was taken earlier this year; but final approval was needed from the General Assembly, as the UN’s governing entity. [read more]

‘Ink, Not Mink’

Totally agree! In this day and age… Has the human species not evolved yet? What is keeping us in the dark ages? Things to think about and ponder upon, but while your doing that, stop doing harm.

Guns N’ Roses and ‘Married to Rock’ Stars Choose ‘Ink, Not Mink’

Duff McKagan (member of popular bands such as Guns N’ Roses, Velvet Revolver, and Loaded ) and his wife Susan Holmes McKagan (international supermodel and star of the E! television show Married to Rock) have teamed up with PETA to star in a smoldering “Ink, Not Mink” ad. The couple aims to encourage people to be comfortable in their own skin and let animals keep theirs.

Finally, EU Recognizes Animals as Sentient Beings!

This is great!  I’m so happy for the EU animals. Hopefully, this will lead to a more vegan diet for many people, now that they realize that these animals are sentient beings.

Many Eastern faiths have recognized all animals and creatures as Sentient Beings for millenniums.

VegNews : Animals Get Legal Status

Europe has legally recognized animals as sentient beings according to the Lisbon Treaty, which went into effect December 1. Article 13 of the treaty states, “…the Union and the Member States shall, since animals are sentient beings, pay full regard to the welfare requirements of animals…” [full text]

Take Action: Save Yellowstone’s Beloved Wolves

Hundreds of wolves across Montana and Idaho could soon share the same cruel fate as Yellowstone’s Wolf 527 — unless they are swiftly granted federal protection. So please take the important wolf-saving action of sending this message to Interior Secretary Salazar while there is still time to call off the guns.

Tell the Interior Secretary, “Call off the Guns! Put Wolves Back on the Endangered Species List!” [take action]

Rainforest Beef, Factory Farms and Anthony Bourdain’s War on Vegetarians

Animals are intelligent, it’s just that the human species doesn’t understand their language.  Animals also sense things we humans do not because humans are taught since childhood to turn off those senses.  Many animals live in community with whole families, as do some humans, but the problem with humans is that many are leaving their elderly family members to live the rest of their lives away from the family in a community of other elderly people waiting to die.  Many humans no longer want their families to be close. 

Animals only hunt to eat, they are not destructive, nor do they kill for the fun of it.
The human species seems to be destructive and love killing for the fun of it, it’s a lot of waist.
In some cultures including my own, animals are considered sacred sentient beings.

So, I ask Anthony Bourdain, who is the silly one?  He alleges that humans evolved to eat meat, if that is true then why don’t we have the teeth or the proper intestinal tracks of meat eaters?

I agree with the writer about his coolness wearing thin.  I used to like watching his show, especially when they went to far off cultural ventures and vegetarian societies, but his constant badgering of vegetarianism has tired me off.  He has not heart if he can’t see the pain those animals are going through.

Rainforest Beef, Factory Farms and Anthony Bourdain’s War on Vegetarians

By NIKOLAS KOZLOFF

Celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain has never made a secret of his disdain for vegetarians and vegans. In his best-selling book Kitchen Confidential the former New York cook remarked somewhat amusingly, “Vegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter faction, the vegans, are a persistent irritant to any chef worth a damn.” After his book became a hit, Bourdain moved into television and currently hosts No Reservations, a rather unusual and unorthodox travel show which examines far-flung cultures and exotic cuisines of the world.

Over the course of his career, Bourdain has cultivated a cool, bad-ass image and during his program he sports a black leather jacket. On one of his shows shot in San Francisco, he made a point of taking on political correctness by heading to an old steak house and feasting on prime rib. “To me,” he has written, “life without veal stock, pork fat, sausage, organ meat, demi-glace, or even stinky cheese is a life not worth living. Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, and an affront to all I stand for, the pure enjoyment of food.”  [read full article here]

Earthlings

This is a moving documentary about how humans have and have had a great disregard for our fellow earthlings and how much pain and suffering humankind has inflicted upon other earthlings for pleasure, food, and clothing. This pain and suffering is inflicted upon our fellow earthling with no just cause, we have no need for them other than selfish greed and human gluttony.

Karina Smirnoff’s Sexy PETA Photo Shoot

This a wonderful message, and hopefully people will look and listen.

The only people who would complain are those who don’t give a damn about life, they think they can take whatever they want, but their day’s will come because Karma’s a bitch, and it bights hard.  Watch your back!  Hitler used to steal the skin from his victims as well, especially those that had tattoos  on them, and we still have people living with his same mentality, self centered, they don’t care about anyone else or anything, much less themselves, and that is why they take that out on everything else.

We don’t need the innocent seal’s fur coats!  They need their coats, and for all you fanatic’s who let all this happen to your “gods” creations because your to busy bickering about a person, just because you don’t like that person educating people [climate change], then your sins are even greater than those you allege are sinful because you let this happen.  I’m very  disappointed in where your faith has brought you.

Imagine Your Life in Chains..

I can’t believe this still continues today!  What the heck is the matter with people?

Undercover Investigation Reveals That Ringling Beats Elephants

In 2009, PETA went undercover at “the saddest show on Earth”—Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus—and captured Ringling workers on video as they beat and whipped elephants dozens of times in venues across the country.
Other viewing options

The 11 elephants used in the show—most of whom were captured in the wilds of Asia as early as 1957 and some of whom have spent more than 40 years with the circus—suffer month after month at the hands of Ringling and its crew. PETA documented workers as they struck elephants and tigers on the head, face, ears, trunk, legs, and other parts of their bodies with bullhooks and other abusive handling tools. The unit’s animal superintendant and head elephant trainer were among those who used bullhooks—sharp, fireplace pokerlike devices—to hook and yank elephants by their sensitive skin, as can be seen in our undercover video.

The abuse extended from Birmingham, Alabama, to Providence, Rhode Island―Ringling’s venues changed, but the beatings did not.

Media Hype and the Fly

I happened to hear about the Fly incident while having breakfast at a cafe.  While at the cafe I over hear this cop griping about PETA’s message to Obama about the killing the fly, he said; it’s common scenes!  Hmmm???  This is a cop in my neighborhood to.  If it’s common sense to kill something that annoys you then get me out of your way, especially when you have a gun!

Seems like people are not evolving.  C’mon, people, ever wonder why we live in a society that has an overcrowded prison system or why we’re a world at war all the time?  All that can stop if people would just learn to respect everything, and teach your children the sacredness of life.  No one expects people to be perfect, or enlightened as Buddha, but the media hate and gripes say a lot about how much society has evolved or not.

This is PETA’s reply to the hyped up media hate frenzy toward PETA.

The PETA Files: Obama and the Fly, Part Deux

Because we’ve heard from so many people who want to know more about PETA’s position on “Flygate,” we’ve decided to explore the question of “to bee or not to bee” in a bit more depth.

As we all know, human beings often don’t think before they act. We don’t condemn President Obama for acting on instinct. When the media began contacting us in droves for a statement, we obliged, simply by saying that the president isn’t the Buddha and shouldn’t be expected to do everything right—if not for that, we would not have brought it up. It’s the media who are making a big deal about the fly swat—not PETA. However, we took the opportunity, when asked, to point out that we do offer lots of ways in which to control insects of all kinds without harming them, including the humane bug catcher we sent President Obama. There is even a chapter in PETA President Ingrid E. Newkirk’s book The PETA Practical Guide to Animal Rights about how to rid your home of “uninvited guests.”
