50,000 DOGS


It ticks us

that the

taxes

in Texas

subsidize

torture

and animal attacks

as research

profiteers at

dinners wear tuxes..

 

*

In the fall of 2008, 50,000 captive dogs being subjected to pain drowned

trapped in underground cages at the University of Texas

Thousands of mice and rats died in New York labs

during a hurricane.

Beagles have been the favorite victims of medical researchers at the Univ of Virginia

REACHABLE STAR OR CHANGE THE WORLD IN FIVE HOURS

 

Henry went to hospital
Twas Bethesda Naval
and took a picture of an ape
in a restraining chair.
And took it to an international
picture wire
called Black Star
which sent it round the world..
and Gandhi saw and knew
that the treaty had been violated
.. and cancelled monkey export
.. because Henry in 5 hours
.. saw and reached for
.. one bright and reachable... star!

Michigan's vegetarrian physician John Harvey Kellogg MD found that within 4 hours after slaughter, the carcass of a murdered cow contained several billion ecoli (colon) bacteria.

 

Ellen White, vegetarian founder of the Seventh Day Adventists of Michigan, prophesied that in the 20th Century

dairy products would be so full of poison they should be avoided.

  SLIDE TO HEAVEN

 

God is infinite, eternal

unconditional, omnipotent,

omniconscious Love.

God all beings indwells

even those

in temporary hells

 

The way to heaven

is not a stairway

but a slide.

Holiness is letting go...

a very easy glide.

Thought the picture was funny though don't

agree with its conclusions.

LOCKED OUT


Court ordered desegregation
did not come easily to the South.
At some locations, small black
children had to walk past a gauntlet
of rifle toting white men yelling
hate words.

In one school, the blacks were
made to stand at the back of the class
ostensibly because there were not
enough seats.

In another, a small black girl
was alone in her quarter of the room,
the white children all having moved
their desks away from her.

Rocks were thrown and pittle
projected onto the black children.

 

In later years, one of the racists would

find his life saved by the intravenous

blood of a black man.

*
Footnote: The 1954 Supreme Court ruled

in regards to school segregation
that 'separate but equal' was unconstitutional.
The University of Virginia
Center For Politics produced a documentary
about those times.
