  "The Skinny on our Growing Girth" by Ingrid Newkirk, www.huffingtonpost.com. Sptember 26,2009.

• Perhaps one of the most important things you can do for human beings is wean them off an animal-based diet. It hardens the arteries and runs up our health-care costs.

  "To Market, To Market". Los Angeles Times Magazine, March 22, 1992.

• If that hideousness came here, it wouldn't be any more hideous for the animals — they are all bound for a ghastly death anyway. But it would wake up consumers... I openly hope that it comes here. It will bring economic harm only for those who profit from giving people heart attacks and giving animals a concentration camp-like existence. It would be good for animals, good for human health and good for the environment.

  "Animal-Research Labs Increasingly Besieged" by Michael Specter, www.washingtonpost.com. May 30, 1989.

• A burning building doesnt help melt peoples hearts, but times change and tactics, Im sure, have to change with them. If you choose to carry out ALF-style actions, I ask you to please not say more than you need to, to think carefully who you trust, to learn all you can about how to behave if arrested, and so to try to live to fight another day.
