Paul McCartney narrated a PETA documentary called "Glass Walls: If Slaughterhouses had Glass Walls, Everyone Would Be a Vegetarian."
After I watched this video, I could not eat another animal.
I do not recommend this documentary for young children. On the other hand, it seems to me to be important for an older child's education to know how meat is brought to market, so that, going forward, each person can make a conscious choice about whether or not they will participate in this kind of slaughter. Hiding it does not make it go away.
This documentary brought me to tears, frustration, embarrassment and shame to be a part of a species that has so much invested in cruelty to animals. And such a haughty assumption that we humans are superior.
Thus begins my blog, Viko the Veggie, charting the course of my conversion to vegetarianism, including the yummy menu selections.
Thank you, Sir Paul. Once again -- we all know what happened in '63 :) -- you change my life for the better!
