We can do something about this- all this,  and we must for one reason and one reason only- because it is the right thing to do. These creatures, who have our brains and senses, think and feel just as we do, cannot defend themselves against us. We must out of our basic morality, work together to defend them and put a perpetual stop to all this. And we can stop it; in an instant. In order to do this we must  stop buying all that comes from the animals that we depend on being treated with cruel and horrendous disrespect and demand to know how everything we buy is produced.
