SAVE 3,600 GOATS!

Avatar of peta2

Posted May 23, 2012 by peta2 staff

The U.S Army is looking into purchasing 3,600 goats.
The goats will be used in trauma training exercises like this one.

Shocking video footage released by PETA has shown live goats having their legs cut off with tree trimmers while conscious and moaning. Eyewitness accounts say that goats in trauma training are even shot in the face.

Send one of these photos to Contract Specialist Rowena Godaire at godairer@soc.mil and Umetria Thomas at umetria.thomas@soc.mil, and politely urge them to stop this purchase of goats for cruel trauma training. Send a copy of your letter* to us at StreetTeam@peta2.com for 1,000 points.

*Note: Please do not use the words “goat” or “goats” in your e-mail to the Army because it seems to be blocking e-mails with those words in them.

    Is it okay to write goats like this: “g o a t s” ? With spaces in between the letters?

    I think that this is abhorrent, is this the kid of thing that goes on to de-humanise the army so then they go off to commit similar crimes to humans? It is essential that this brutal regime is finished.

    Not to be rude or anything but people are so stupid.! Do they not know animals have feelings.? Heck do the people even have feelings.? They raise em from birth, and just murder them. That pretty muchmakes them thier adoptive kids. Its murder. Do they not see those inocent babys.? How can they just sit there and slit the throught of something theyve raised frombirth.? Or if not that they do it to the babys.! Babys for crying out loud.! But thats just people for you ig.Smh.

    Not that I WANT to see these atrocities, but I don’t see a link here to the ACTUAL “shocking video footage.” Can someone please provide a LINK to that, or a link to some other independent verification of this Army program? Thank you.

    Why can’t you have a template form for everything? It makes it so much easier to send letters of complaint!

    Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ

    I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
