Are we pinning people down and force-feeding them vegan burritos? . They do appear to wish to put an end to what they believe are the worst abuses of institutionalized animal agriculture, such as gestation crates and veal crates, but that's hardly a call to end animal agriculture. The HSUS isn't even anti-hunting !

Vegan education/advocacy for animals is easiest for me when I know my audience. And right now, Mercy for Animals' Farm to Fridge Tour is doing that, too, in addition to picketing and getting mainstream media exposure for the short film. PETA's been using horrifying images for years. I always used the words "flesh" and "enslavement."

There are moral reasons to go vegetarian: recognition that it is wrong to contribute to unnecessary animal suffering the injustice of exploiting animals and killing them for no good reason If human have rights, then many nonhuman animals also have rights, and confining and killing these animals for food violates these rights.
