The images in the following program are very sensitive and may be as disturbing to viewers as they were to us. However, we have to show the truth about cruelty to animals, praying that you will help to stop it.
HOST: Concerned viewers, this is the Stop Animal Cruelty series on Supreme Master Television. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is a US-based animal rights group with over two-million members and supporters worldwide.
PETA focuses on ending animal suffering in factory farms, the entertainment industry and research laboratories. The caring organization also works to halt the use of animals in the fashion industry. Their tools to protect our animal friends include conducting animal cruelty investigations, organizing public outreach efforts, sponsoring animal welfare legislation, performing animal rescues, and creating pro-animal ad campaigns featuring prominent celebrities.
Ingrid Newkirk (f): I believe we’re all the same; we’re all flesh and blood. We all have emotions. We all feel pain and joy and love, and so it’s not any fairer as if you would use your neighbor’s child to test something, that you would use another of your neighbors who happens not to be human.
But we’ve used billions and billions and billions of animals. We don’t have a cure for the common cold! So this is not good science.
HOST: This week we feature an interview with Ingrid Newkirk, president and founder of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals regarding the sickening practice of animal testing.
