QUOTES OF THE MONTH
“As long as slaughterhouses are run… for… profit, the dangers of bacterial contamination will continue to be added to all the other reasons to avoid eating meat (increased cancer and heart disease and diabetes, manure spills, fish kills, antibiotic-resistant germs, compassion for animals, social justice, greenhouse gasses, rain forest destruction, etc.)“As my 30-year-vegan blacksmith husband – or any healthy gorilla – demonstrates, we primates do not actually need any meat. [Least of all] a kind of meat that’s so undesirable it has to be sneaked into hamburger.” -- letter by Louise Quigley published in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel on Apr. 5, 2012
