Why are you on the road for peta2? I'm touring for peta2 to help spread the word about the horrifying things that are happening to our animal friends worldwide. We can't stop injustice unless people know about it. I truly believe that the only reason that people don't care more about animal rights and go veg is because they don't actually know what's going on.

Why are you on the road for peta2? I want to get out there and not only help people realize how terrible animal exploitation is but also help people who are already veg with any troubles that they might have.
