Gary Yourofsky is an interesting fellow....

If you are unfamiliar with him, you can visit ADAPTT.org and learn more. At the website you can learn about his arrest record and the fact that he has been banished from 5 countries. Why? Because he promotes the notion that Animals Deserve Absolute Protection Today and Tomorrow (the source of the acronym ADAPTT), nor is he adverse to taking direct action to protect animals...including releasing mink from a fur farm, chaining his neck to a car axle to prevent entrance to a circus (that used animals) and other activisms.

On his website I found the statement: "...go vegan and refuse to consume anything that once had a face, a mother or a bowel movement. Veganism is the only way to live in absolute peace with all of our planetary companions." Excellent!

You can also begin to do your part for those who cannot speak for themselves by living as an ethical vegan.
