    Has anyone ever watched the KFC PETA clip on youtube? Or any of the other Compassion over killing clips? Have you ever read the responces people write? Sometimes this world makes me so sad. I started being a vegetarian d/t nitrates they contained and it evolved from there. Now i find myself hating the meat industry and really hurting for the animals and all the pain they're in. I feel so...i dunno. I just don't know how people can exist like that, consuming that and supporting a industry of cruelty. I love being a vegetarian, i mean, I LOVE IT! I've never enjoyed food so much in my life. Even if all practices were fair I still wouldn't eat it because i just love my lifestyle. But all this knowledge that we all share really can hurt sometimes. I'm feeling really upset right now. Im knew to this forum so forgive me if i posted in the wrong spot. Can anyone offer me some words that will make me feel better? Can anyone relate? I feel completly alone.:'(

    Comments aside, the video. I mean the cruelty. I just wish that the world would open there eyes. The steps that all of us have taken-it wasn't hard. I just wish the world would wake up, put in a little effort, and acknowledge this awfull practice.

    now, maybe, its time to watch the dairy and eggs videos and make the next step.

    i started with the videos, because im a visual learner, but then i went to my local library. i began to look up books about livestock and veganism/vegetarianism. i learned what was really going on with in the meat, fish, dairy, and egg industries. its much worst than the videos show. the videos are more for shock value, then education.

    Wonka's right. These videos are the tip of the iceberg. Look into the environmental damage of the industries and cutting down on shower time/ unplugging appliances will seen quite irrelevant. Also, check out the main cause of Dead Zones in our oceans- thank the meat industry for that!
