On Death Row

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Montrose. Emma was kind enough to lend me her forum this week so that I can issue my appeal to you. I am currently on Death Row and I have not committed a crime. I realize that "they all say that", but please read further and you will see that I am innocent.


My life has been a good one until now. I was given the very best care. I ate the finest foods and I always had plenty to eat. In short I was treated as if I were meant for special things. My mother always told me that I was the best looking of all her offspring. She was so proud. I suppose it was inevitable that the pampering would go to my head. I strutted around so proudly. I felt as if I could do nothing wrong. So what happened, you wonder?

About three days ago, I was captured and caged like a common criminal. I have been poked and prodded and ogled. I had no trial. I was sentenced to death. I am scheduled to be beheaded in two days. Why? What did I do to deserve this?





Do I look like a hardened Criminal? I say an emphatic NO! Unless I can get a reprieve, I will be gone in two days. My only hope is that I will have made life a little better for someone. Please remember me in two days. Perhaps you can think of me as an important slice of your day.



HAPPY THANKSGIVING, EVERYONE

Emma

  3. I am so terribly sorry Dear friend you didn´t deserve this abrupt end to your life.

    Some months ago I became a vegetarian. I have eaten meat all my life and liked it.However, when I asked myself this question,I started to see individuals behind my meal and it didn´t seem so tasty anymore.
    "Coralie (that´s my name) Do you like animals? My answer "Yes I do"
    "Then why do you eat them"? That was when I realised that I don´t want to eat my friends"

    Factory Farm animals live terrible lives because we crave more and cheaper food.

    If you love nature, surely you don´t want farm animals to suffer the way they do while living and when they are slaughtered.

    I don´t think most people are cruel or should be vegetarians, but I do think we need to understand and become aware of terrible animal suffering and set a stop for it.

    When we allow animal cruelty we are opening up for more acts of cruelty in the World, is that what we really want?
