I am opposed to the military use of animals. I am also opposed to the military use of men.

I have always been against cruelty to animals and remain so.

I became a vegetarian after I became aware of factory farming and slaughterhouses and the torture and inhumane handling of all these animals.

I am opposed to war, to killing people, to any kind of hatred and violence.

I go in the butchers and there's not a lot of meat I can eat these days, with having all the animals.

The more I read and watched about the meat industry, the more determined I became to keep meat out of my diet. The things I saw in slaughterhouse exposes made me feel sick and I refused to just ignore what I now knew.

When I was old enough to realize all meat was killed, I saw it as an irrational way of using our power, to take a weaker thing and mutilate it. It was like the way bullies would take control of younger kids in the schoolyard.

I prefer to die rather than eat beef.

The only meat I eat is from animals I've killed myself.

I know lots and lots and lots of vegetarians who think it's perfectly all right to kill animals for food to eat, but don't do it because they think all the ways in which it's done are wrong.
