The following is a quote on violence by Gary L. Francione, the author of Introduction to Animal Rights: Your Child or the Dog? and other important writings on animal rights.
And please remember: violence is the problem; it is not any part of the solution. Abolition, veganism, and non-violence are all different aspects of the same concept.1
I highly recommend Gary’s website Animal Rights: The Abolitionist Approach. He has also started producing a podcast. You can subscribe to Gary L. Francione’s podcast using iTunes.
