Why I am not a vegan

[Monica]

I checked out about half of it before I started crying. But it's PETA, which is an extremist group. They set fires to restaurants and such.
They even wanted to call fish "sea kittens", because nobody would kill a kitten. Crazy.

Gemini, bless you Sweetie! for having the courage and compassion to watch it. Yes, it's difficult to watch, isn't it? Now do you understand why we speak up for them?

If it's so difficult for us to even watch, can you imagine how difficult it is for them to LIVE it?  

That the video came from PETA is irrelevant. There are some PETA extremists, just as there are some Christian extremists, etc. Regardless of who recorded it, the footage is real. All that really happened, and continues to happen, every single day, to the tune of billions of sentient beings.

But if that bothers you, there is plenty of footage from other groups too:
