Daily Journal December 8, 1998, By-William Thomas Thompson. Animal cruelty by China and all of us in the world. Cows were made to give milk and chickens were made to lay eggs but we kill and eat the cows and chickens even calves and little lambs that should grow up and produce wool, we are a killing world and we love it with hamburgers feeding our children to death. The Humane Society of America has found furs in major department stores here made with cat and dog fur raised in China where some eat cats and dogs. The cats and dogs are shown on television being skinned alive for their fur, the cats are hanged to suffocate while the dogs are cut in the leg to bleed to death and skinned while they die, I cannot sleep at night after seeing these awful things go on. I saw a little pig have a long sharp pole driven through its mouth and down its throat and out its tail to shish kebab over a fire when I was in Hawaii. I was disturbed growing up on the farm at the killing of animals and I never want to eat any meat again. The ringing of a chicken’s neck is bad. The killing of cows and calves for veal is an awful thing. Why not let every animal grew to an older age. Fish suffocate when taken out of water. Deer’s are shot up and drag themselves off to suffer and die all just for sport. Rome in the early centuries killed Christians for sport, America leads the world in abortion of the unborn until China and other nations saw us doing it and now they do it more. China kills humans to market organs that are in demand. It comes down to money. China and other nations will supply the demand; I hope and pray that the people will reject all fur items. Most of this century has been plagued killing baby seals on the North shores for fur. I cringe when one walks by me in a fur coat. Half the women in Venice, Italy had fur coats on full length black color like mink. The style makes a statement along with a pair of dark sunglasses of who a body is and how important. Expensive cars all have leather seats from cowhide and I wear special made shoes I purchased in Hong Kong in 1989 the same month I started painting art, made of all kid leather from kid goat. Do we really realize the suffering of animals? I never thought about it until someone pointed it out to me. Children today eating all that meat do not even know that animals die to supply. Some countries kill monkeys just to eat their brains, when I first heard of abortion; I did not realize that a living baby died when an abortion was committed. The suffering of one child with a living soul being mutilated inside its mother is more pain than any person could ever imagine. It is crueler than the animals suffer dying. Death by abortion is cold blooded murder in the most awful way and the baby feels it, all of it. The saline (salt) solution injected into the placenta, the organ where the baby lives, is like being burned alive, some are born still living even with all of this. Many are mutilated in the process and feel all the pain. A baby cannot cry until it gets air outside the mother and never should need to cry before birth. Partial birth is death to a living baby while it is being born by stabbing it in the head with a pair of scissors while the head is still soft. What barbaric person would do such an awful thing? We are an uncivilized people with a heart of stone. The Bible says that a good man will consider his beast. The original commandments of God in Old Testament time for man to live by orders "Thou shall not kill" Save us Dear Lord God!
