Don't forget the milk

And for the record...

I didn't forget the milk....

I just don't want to support an industry I don’t agree with....

I don't care if 99% of the world drinks milk ..

700000 Baby cows are killed every year in this country alone as a by product of milk...

700,000!!!!

I know this...I live on a god dam dairy farm......
All those little baby cows taken away from their mothers and starved and sent off alone to a slaughter yard scared, hungry, confused, shaking...

Just so you can have your latte and grilled cheese melt....

I'm sorry.....

But I don't think YOU or any other human is that special...

And I know you don't and can't even begin to understand
And that you have no empathy for it.....

And that my friend, is what makes it all the more sadder.

That little baby being prodded to walk down a ramp to a place where it will have its throat cut....
The price on its head just two dollars....That’s right, two dollars..
I’m not making this shit up....I live on a dairy farm......

The by product of your latte and your toasted cheese sandwich is worth less than your breakfast at Gloria Jeans....

Imagine if this happened to a puppy or foal or kitten....
Why is a baby cows life worth less than a pet dog or cat or horse......

How did the cow draw the short straw when it came to milking.....I suppose it had the biggest boobies....

Hmmmmm why is it the humans are the only mammals that feel the need to have milk after we stop breast feeding....

Strange....Greedy and just generally fucked up.....

So...ummm...

NO I didn't forget the milk....

I just think you should either go find a lactating mammal of your own species (ewe!!!!) or squeeze a soy bean a rice grain or an almond nut.....

Nothing is worth the over production and death of 750000 bobby calves and the short miserable life of the forever pregnant and lactating dairy cow...

Seriously who wants to be continually preggers.....
Humans are so selfish....
