tree shoes, now that is cool. like to see it and i'd buy them... but dont

trees have feelings too?

 

i've read a scienitific report sponsored by the British Leather

Federation saying that they SCREAM LIKE MAD and rattle their twiglets

about when they have their bark stripped off them.

 

any chance of research grant to discover a way of humanely stunning them

before giving them the chop?

 

 

i dont know about anyone but i find PETA a little bit irksome. perhaps a

little to media hungry. it is interesting but do with start to stratify

vegans as either " interventionist " or " non-interventionist " , i.e.

ones that reckon we have to get stuck into the bloody toothed and clawed

imperfect environment, and ones that reckon we should stand back and let

what ever happen in nature happen, e.g. too many rabbits, rabbits die of

famine.

 

i reckon a year or two in the country and we'd all be out there defending

our carrots with shot guns if it came to it and there is a good argument

for culling. and if it is true that there is no difference in a human

life and an animals, which I pretty much accept, then start culling

humans too.

 

it is a war and it is either us or them you know. and there is a lot more

of them than us.
