CIRCUS is CRUEL

Circus Is Cruel To Animals
I was pretty shocked to see that "Candyman presents Russian Circus" ;-) was houseful for all Shows.(Well I didnt visit the circus but I know people trying to buy tickets)

Not only children even educated adults seem to be fans of circus.

What shocked me even more was, some people actually say things like "atleast the animal is getting food, in the jungle they would starve" & "they are taught to perform those tricks in a humane manner, they must be enjoying it".I wanted to laugh my ass out, at these statements but all I could do is feel terrible that people are so illiterate despite years of education & grooming :)

But the reality of circus is worse than anybody can imagine.

WORLD HUNGER

World Hunger and Resources

Ever seen kids from the 3rd World???Walking skeletons with bloated up stomachs!!!
Children so thin that it would remind you of the model of the Skeleton in your biology Lab. Children so sad they have forgotten to smile.
Children so weak that they never "go out and play"
its called World Hunger, yes...as you chew on your steak in one corner of the world, in the other corner there are children dieing of starvation.
Your innocent greed for meat is causing wastage of land & water resources which could have otherwise been used to feed these children.

Meat production today is inhumane

95% of the world's population is compassionate by nature.
93% of the world's population will not kill a defenseless creature.
91% of the world's population cannot watch a gory video on animal cruelty.
But still 89% of the world's population eats meat.
Because most meat eaters are unaware of the tragedies of 'Modern day Animal Farms'
