kollision

Welcome

Welcome and thanks for the change. Good luck!

I just got back from the one here in Los Angeles. If you would like to participate, look for an event near your area: http://www.harpseals.org/helpstop/cityprotest.html

Agreed! Does this guy even have muscles?

OOOo Vegan Motorcycle, cool! Welcome.

Welcome aboard.

Hi Tigger, thats a lot of animals! Welcome.

Actually this would be better in the "Beginners Question" section since this is for introductions. Welcome.

Welcome and good luck on the transition to Veganism.

Welcome Donn!

Ah ok thanks. Thought it was something done to the environment or animals. 3rd World labour isn't forced, they choose to work right?

Thanks sooo much Will and College. What do you mean by ethically made College?

Thanks Molly! Any idea if they sell something like a "hard leather boot" alternative? The ones used in factories and warehouses. I saw some boots but I am not sure if they are like "hard leather boots". I need it for a job. Definitely should be stickied! Thank you for compiling this list!

Welcome aboard

Post on other boards if you like, I got this from a friend.

Wow that many? I didn't know it was that huge, I thought it was only for Asians and Native Americans... I know hispanics like milk... As far as them not looking at Raw milk, they should at least specify that clearly, as it leads a lot of people to think that milk as a whole is bad for them. Same as with articles on meat. People have their own agendas (or probably they just never thought of it) which is dangerous. As the guy in the article states, people never question anything. They read one thing and automatically believe it. Even though I am a vegan he makes a lot of sense. Both sides for that matter (Meat eaters and vegans) are a lot like that.

I don't think that this article was made in regards to "raw milk" as well and not the factory farmed milk? http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/kosloff5.htm Also, a lot of people (Native Americans, Asians, etc.) cannot digest milk because they lack the sufficient enzyme (lactase). I think the ideas on milk are both biased or either without substantial evidence by only looking at the factory farmed milk and not milk from a healthy animal. It's the same in regards to meat. It is not bad, but the factory farmed version of it is.

I definitely agree with that. I wish that all these animals never existed (even though I love them all) so that they would never have suffered by our hands. If I had a choice, I would have not have any of them alive at all if possible and not painful at all. Let us destroy each other, not involve others in it.

You can't base facts off of one article. It's like saying that the articles on meat being essential are correct because it was in one. Theres definitely a need for more studies in this field.

Hrmm Aaron I did some searches and it seems that you are right. However some sources say that the majority is from milk. Funny thing that you say this because I saw an apple turnover in the store and I read the ingredients. Had lactic acid but also said, "May contain traces of soy and milk", therefore I was confused. Thanks for clearing it up. Sorry for the misinformation! But as for the Papa Johns garlic dip, you can email them and ask them. They always put it in the container, so if you don't want it, take it out and give it back.

Nat, I just received the video. It is burned to a CDR so I doubt the library will cary copied media. Hrmm, I guess I have to find some other way to donate this. Also, this isn't completely from PETA. It was created by Chalissa. Therefore I doubt even more so that the library will carry this.

I agree with a lot of what they do, just a few things I don't understand. Will, about the money. How can it cost that much money just to go under cover and take video? I can understand the cost of a camera (perhaps 1000 dollars) but where does the rest go?

You are welcome Nat, hope you find a way to help them.
