Animal rights, awareness and issues 2014

[my miss storm cat]

Cherish as hamburger?

Medium rare prime rib?

I'm assuming this is directed at me so, for the record, I do not eat animals, I don't watch the show (there is very little on tv I watch) and I don't eat crap so am not sure if maybe you had a few too many Girl Scout cookies and are coming down from a sugar high or what.

Re: the Sea Shepherd... I keep up with their actions because of my immense respect.

I love horse racing and constantly defend it, the industry, myself, etc. to most people in my life because they see it as cruel. I just spent lunch doing this, once again, and it's draining.

I have not decided, in my own life, well these animals are important and these are not...

Some days there is so much overwhelming stuff (dead whales and dolphins, dogs being killed before the Olympics, turtles, donkeys, etc) that, when I come here, part of me feels like asking Nick to just please delete the thread for me cause I feel guilty for not posting stuff but then I could spend hours posting every damned thing I've read so I end up backing off.

I hope that anyone who bothers looking at this thread (and it's clearly marked and down here out of the way... I am not trying to incite anyone) knows or is made aware of what happens in the cove. I have never once posted footage of it nor do I post the gruesome pictures.

You say you have seen footage. Did you hear it as well? It's beyond me how anyone could have watched even just a couple of minutes of it... seeing and hearing them... how anyone could then nonchalantly say oh yeah been there, don't that, seen that.

I wish I could get the images out of my head... chilling and horrific and God the sounds...

Your posts seem very hostile and I don't really get why anything I've said should incense you.

I do hope you have a nice time on Valentines Day and that it's however you want it to be.

Me? I'll be at the Los Angeles protest and, while I know it seems pretty meaningless, maybe a couple of these protests will be covered and a few people who don't know about the cove will be made aware. That's the beginning of ending bad things, right? Educating people and having them become aware?

Sounds like a good way to spend Valentine's Day to me anyway.
