________________ It is a crime against humanity of unimaginable proportions. The world has changed. 10 years ago 'Twitter' was a bird sound, 'www' was a stuck keyboard, 'Cloud' was in the sky, '4G' was a parking place, 'Google' was a baby burp, 'Skype' was a typo and 'Al Kider' was my plumber. Victor Hugo said "There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come." Animal Rights is now the greatest Social Justice issue since the abolition of slavery. There are over 600 million vegetarians in the world. That is bigger than the US, England, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Canada, Australia combined! If we were one nation we would be bigger than the 27 countries in the European Union! Despite this massive footprint, we are still drowned out by the raucous hunting, shooting, killing cartels who believe that violence is the answer - when it shouldn't even be a question. Meat is a killing industry - animals, us, and our economies. Medicare has already bankrupted the US. They will need $8 trillion invested in Treasury bills just to pay the interest. It has precisely zero! They could shut every school, army, navy, air force, and Marines, the FBI and CIA – and they still won't be able to pay for it. Cornell and Harvard say that the optimum amount of meat for a healthy diet is precisely ZERO. Water is the new oil. Nations will soon be going to war for it. Underground aquifers that took millions of years to fill are running dry. An Ahimsa Crisis: You Decide 281
