In recent years we have heard a great deal about racism,
sexism,
ageism and animal rights, but the crucial political
issue of the
decade is still to be faced. All over the world, plants
are being
subjected to degrading and inhumane treatment from animals,
with
nobody to stand up for their rights.
THIS APPALLING STATE OF AFFAIRS MUST STOP NOW.
This is the ultimate Green issue. We, as animals, should
be ashamed of
the way we have treated the vegetable beings with whom
we share this
planet, exploiting them purely for our own pleasure
and with no regard
to their wishes. For example:
* Plants are regularly bred solely to be killed and
eaten, usually
while they are still young.
* Vegetables are factory farmed under highly intensive
conditions,
often with as little as 25 sq.cm of ground space each.
* They are frequently force fed with growth hormones
and fertilisers
by unscrupulous farmers who are only interested in making
a profit.
* Many plants are forced to fruit at unnatural times
of the year in
order to command higher prices.
* They are subjected to genetic experiments purely in
order to make
them more palatable to human tastes.
* They are regularly sprayed with noxious pesticides,
and increasingly
deliberately subjected to dangerous gamma radiation.
* They are transported long distances by train and ship
while packed
in inhumane conditions.
* Because of the Common Agricultural Policy, they may
be kept for
months in claustrophobic conditions in huge silos, and
sometimes
deliberately destroyed and ploughed back into the ground
to keep
prices high.
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF YOUR FAVOURITE PET SHRUBBERY WERE
TREATED THIS
WAY?
Vegetables did not ask to be treated like this. They
are gentle,
peace-loving beings whose only desire is to live in
harmony with the
world, and whose only crime is that they cannot defend
themselves. We
in the vegetable rights movement are committed to seeing
that the
cruel and degrading abuse of plants is ended immediately.
We believe
that nobody has the right to eat another being, whether
animal or
vegetable, without its permission. Since most animals
and vegetables
cannot speak to give their permission this means that
we must only eat
other human beings. We therefore demand that a law be
passed to make
eating illegal except between consenting adults. None
of the other
parties are sufficiently enlightened to support this
policy which is
why you must vote for our candidates*. (Admittedly,
Ken Livingstone is
rumoured to eat babies, but not on ideological grounds,
so this does
not count.)
Remember: if you eat vegetables you are eating the decaying
remains of
a dead plant.
Put an end to the cruel and degrading treatment of vegetables now.
Vote COLBY
* If there is no Vegetable Rights candidate in your
constituency then
support the Conservative candidate. This is the nearest
you can get to
voting for a vegetable.

I have a theory that if you take 20 No-Doze(tm),
grind them up then make them into a solution
with a pint of 5% fructose water at 75 degrees
for an enema, and AT THE SAME TIME as you are
giving someone that enema, you feed them 20
Benedryl(tm) antihistimes, the two will actually
CANCEL EACH OTHER OUT. Especially if you run
house current through them at the time.
It helps if you are huffing nitrous oxide when
you perform the experiment. And use a plastic
sheet like Gallagher in case they explode like
the other ones.
Come to think of it, I think that's how Gallagher
got started. It takes some serious muscles to do
that to a human skull.

That story sounds like utter bullshit.
I wasn't there and it wasn't me.
I am *not* in denial. Shut up.
