> This has nothing to do with the group, but I really felt like sharing it with any way possible. It's a documentary I found on Google Videos, very interesting and very cruel. By saying cruel I mean that they show you the truth and they show you what "the real world" is like behind our dinners, our clothes, our entertainment and our cosmetics.Some of you might not be able to handle the truth and close the window after 5 minutes. Do not watch it with your kids but do talk about it with them. Just so you know one of the main causes of global warming is the produce of meat. Once again I warn you the documentary is very cruel and believe me you want see happy animals in the forests. The thing is, can you handle the truth?

The film is narrated by Academy Award nominee Joaquin Phoenix (GLADIATOR) and features music by the critically acclaimed platinum artist Moby. With an in-depth study into pet stores, puppy mills and animals shelters, as well as factory farms, the leather and fur trades, sports and entertainment industries, and finally the medical and scientific profession, EARTHLINGS uses hidden cameras and never before seen footage to chronicle the day-to-day practices of some of the largest industries in the world, all of which rely entirely on animals for profit. Powerful, informative and thought-provoking, EARTHLINGS is by far the most comprehensive documentary ever produced on the correlation between nature, animals, and human economic interests. There are many worthy animal rights films available, but this one transcends the setting. EARTHLINGS cries to be seen. Highly recommended!

I like the RETALIATION part. The elephant died in a hail of bullets but it' free at last.
Erm... think he should be caged up with either tiger/lion and let the big cat take care of him...
