it isn't about blame - it's about taking responsibility and GOING VEGAN, as we talk to KAREN DAVIS, founder of United Poultry Concerns, about the chicken-torturing legislation created by the egg industry (HR 3798 / S 3239) that has inexplicably been embraced by former "animal advocates" (if some of them ever were) H$U$, Farm Sanctuary, Mercy for Animals, Compassion Over Killing, In Defense of Animals, ASPCA, Animal Legal Defense Fund, and FARM.

Originating live from the world's largest vegan grocery store, VIVA LA VEGAN, Rancho Cucamonga, CA - guest KAREN DAVIS of United Poultry Concerns appears late in the broadcast with a heart wrenching description of the hopelessness of hens in cages. BOB observes that the greatest misery in the world is caused by people who eat the eggs and flesh of chickens, who must take responsibility and GO VEGAN!. Because of shortness of time, KAREN returns to GO VEGAN RADIO WITH BOB LINDEN August 26 to address what she feels were misrepresentations of her and UPC by Farm Sanctuary's Nick Cooney in his presentation at the recent (so-called) "animal rights" conference. Plus - important health risk warning for (eeewww) chicken-eating women!!! Also this week, CRAIG DEARTH, visiting from Perth Australia, talks about the vegan scene down under, and his 8 years of listening to the radio program. And - shutting down the world's largest McDonald's - and how did #1 terrorist Ronald McDonald breach London Olympics security?

Live from the location of the (so-called) "animal rights" conference to which BOB LINDEN traveled cross country to the DC area (for the first time since he was Program Director of JAZZY 100 there) - now for the purpose of protesting AGAINST the conference and many of its major sponsoring organizations for their endorsements of policies of cruelty to chickens - guest LIQIN CAO of United Poultry Concerns presents an impassioned argument for compassion for chickens and expresses her outrage at the manipulation and misrepresentation of research and statistics astonishingly being committed by individuals and groups thought to have been central in the world of "animal rights", but who now are being exiled, ejected, and rejected on a moral basis for acting against the interests of billions of animals and unacceptably campaigning for permanent conditions for chickens that are universally condemned as cruel, even by many of those same groups. (Yes, it would be hilarious on the stage of the theatre of the absurd, were it not for the endless suffeing of so many harmless innocent birds. ALSO on the AUG 5 program - guest CAMILLE HANKINS of WAR (Win Animal Rights) in New York celebrates a direct action victory in Italy that shut down the GREEN HILL beagle breeding lab for good, and what's being done now to stop this breeding for the purpose of unnecessary violence and murder in laboratories of the world's most lovable and adorable creature.
