Then let little John Howard know what you think by emailing him & urging him to put a stop to the cruel practices inflicted upon sheep and lambs used for merino wool:

OMG, I could not finish watching this and did send an email.

I watched this a while back, it's awful. Some live sheep get shipped over here, and the ill ones get thrown overboard or minced alive.

OMG. I could only watch till the part where they cut the sheep's throat. It's still blinking and it's head is almost completely off.
I can't imagine how people that do that for a living can sleep at night.
Peta tv. is always really graphic.

I wont even watch it, I know what goes on and there's no use me seeing stuff like this, just gets me down.

We can send all the letters we like (and we should) but Little Johnny won't do anything.

There's pretty much only contempt there for anyone without 'traditional family values' (read whitebread 1950s style, man and woman centred family).

:grr: :grr: :grr:

Hi, I'm new to this board (and this lifestyle for that matter!)
I would just like to say that I saw that website.
I never use merino wool or any wool for my knitting. I absolutely love to knit, and I knit every chance I get--but I never use wool or mohair or cashmere or silk. I always use cotton or acrylic. did you know that they boil the silkworms alive, while they are in the caccoons??

They sleep at night because they have no consciences and are going straight to Hell where they belong. :furious: :spew: :whack: :gun: :devil: :junk:

I'm always wondering if people like that get punished from above, if you know what I mean. So then a person who humanly euthanizes animals also goes to hell. Both are killing animals, except the humane person is doing it in a nicer way. :think:

I think God can see the difference in breaking the 10 commandments for greed and breaking them out of love and thought of the well being of one you love. There is remorse in having to do something like that if you love the one you do it to.
