British rock icon Morrissey writes quite a few open letters; most ceaselessly including scathing criticism of commercialism, the British Monarchy, international affairs, or animal rights violators. So whilst you hear that a well-known musician penned an open letter to President Obama entitled “Thankskilling,” you probably already knew it used to be Morrissey’s doing.

Posted on the Real to You webzine, Morrissey, an outspoken vegan activist, lashes out against Obama and the American tradition of presidential pardons for make a selection turkeys. He accuses the American executive of assisting a “viciously cruel” meat business and suggests Obama and his colleagues reinforce the “torture” of hundreds of thousands of birds yearly.

Read the entire letter below:

Thankskilling

Please ignore the abysmal example set with the aid of President Obama who, within the name of Thanksgiving, supports torture as forty five million birds are horrifically abused; dragged thru electrified stun baths, and then have their throats slit. And President Obama laughs. Haha, so humorous!

As Ingrid Newkirk from PETA factors out, turkey ‘meat’ is one among “our nation’s top killers”, inflicting heart-attacks and strokes in humans due to saturated animal fats and cholesterol. And President Obama laughs.

Additional, the meat business is answerable for fifty one% of human-caused greenhouse-gas emission, therefore the embarrassingly silly White House ‘turkey pardon’ is open reinforce for a viciously merciless and environmentally irresponsible business.

And President Obama laughs.
