Guest guest Posted August 19, 2001 Report Share Posted August 19, 2001 Dear Compassionate Person: There has been talk that I, or volunteers of my organization have been preventing people from helping animals because of the e-mails that we send out. I have recieved e-mails from people saying that they are leaving animal rescue, and animal rights/welfare, because of me, and that I don't really Love All Animals because of my " immature " behaviors. I'm not sure how to respond to these e-mails. I am not trying to please every animal lover anymore. I am here to help animals, and if you don't like it tough. I send out e-mails because I feel that they are important. I wouldn't waste my time creating a website, answer your e-mails, and send you e-mails if I didn't feel it was important. I e-mailed you with information on the new Compassion Movement, I e-mailed you when we added the Pet Rescue Section to our website, I e-mailed you when we made our website, I e-mailed you when we added our new Operator Services to our website. I e-mailed you because I feel that these things are important, and I will continue to e-mail you. I will continue to e-mail you until all animals are free from bondage, until there are no more animals needing to be adopted, and until all people are vegetarians, or I will e-mail you until you ask to be d. If you want to be d then fine, ask us, but do not e-mail us telling me that I was the reason that you no longer will help animals. Because I did not make that descion for you, I didn't make you do anything. I am here 7 days a week for almost 10 hours a day helping animals, adding action alerts on the LAA website, answering your e-mails, and adding services that I think will help us, I will continue to inform you because you asked for it. I will not let you down. I have also made it 100% easier and faster for you to get your questions answered. Starting today you can go to the Love All Animals website and talk to a real live operator, we will try to keep someone in there 24/7, but late at night we can't make any guarantees, you can talk to a real live LAA volunteer who can chat with you about anything, give you there views, answer your questions, and show you a million links on anything you need. Please don't stop helping animals because of me, the animals are worth far more to you then I am, if anything, delete my messages, but do not under any circumstances e-mail me and say you quit, because of me. Thank you for being such a compassionate person to help animals. It is greatly appreciated. Have a great week! == Ryan Courtade President Love All Animals 2 Rio Vista Dr. Ft.

" -- Margaret Mead No matter how sweet and wonderful Love is and no matter how true and deep promises are, Love still hurts and promises are useless. So why bother to love someone and hurt yourself again? -- Ryan Courtade If you don't like my opinions leave. But just remember, the animals can't leave the cages that hold them. They are captive and suffering. As you cozy into your bed tonight, try to imagine the pain and the suffering that they endure day after day and night after night. Next time you get some soap in your eyes, try to imagine that pain for 3 or 4 days at a time. Next time you have a stomach ache, try to imagine liquid plumber being poured down your throat till you puke so much blood that you bleed to death. Next time you bump your head, try to imagine being a monkey and getting a steel plate smashed into your skull at 50 miles per hour. Then, only then should you feel compelled to tell me that I'm wrong about my opinions. For all these things have happened in the name of science. They continue in abundance till this day. --Ricki Rockett ___________ Check out http://www.loveallanimals.com for more information on Love All Animals!
