I have been a vegetarian for 3 months after watching Earthlings. That shocked me. It made me see how meat ends up in my plate and that i don't want any creature to be killed for my sake. But the thing i never thought about is pets. By caring,loving and providing their food don't we make them happy? I never thought of it as taking away their freedom....

@Prog47 The issue with pets is complex. In a vegan world I don't think humans would own other animals at all. But I agree: often it seems good to take in nonhumans who'd otherwise be on the street or killed at a shelter. I'm personally not sure what the solution is, but I wanted to note the problematic confinement common with pets. Some vegans praise animal sanctuaries as a short-term solution. I live with a cat, and I've just tried to focus on being more sensitive to allowing her more freedom.

Dears. Would you please send me the English subtitles in a text format? I would translate them into Czech and spread the video here. We do regular screenings on the streets every week. It would be a great thing to spread this video in Czech. It is an open, clear, wonderful message and this is the way for me. Thank you.

This video deserves milion of views. But of course there are no naked women so it will stay underground. That´s a BIG shame...It´s the reality no one wants to see... respect to the people doing this!!!!
