There's a great editorial titled "PETA's Undercover Agents Deserve a Pat on the Back" in the Post-Bulletin that's well worth reading. We don't generally just push people over to another site, but when something is good it's good—so we'll let someone else do the writing this time.

Check out the editorial here.

Grant Keep up your good work and don't sell yourself short. You might never know when you influence someone to do the right thing. Congrats to PETA's undercover people. You guys do a difficult dirty job but the results you produce make it all worthwhile.

Thank you Grant for sharing your story. It is a lonely life sometimes being a veganveg. Most guys are so addicted to their testorone meat eating ways there is no getting through to them. It gives me hope that if I can just get them to see these videos. Then surely to God they will understand why I am soooooooooooo not interested in sitting in restaurants blah blah blah except of course the vegan kind. Now that sounds like a fun night out. So pour the wine and pass the peace pipe and slap a condom on that thang and whatever you do don't even try to tongue kiss me. I going full out vegan this new year. If we don't laugh sometimes Grant we'll go insane. Really Really though thank you for your kind story. Your a true GENTLEMEN. May God Bless you above and beyond. Have a lovely Holiday.

If this doesn't open the eyes of the public into the practices of animal agriculture then I don't know what will. We all owe a huge debt to the courage of the PETA investigators that made this possible. I would also add that we shouldn't overlook the efforts of other PETA staff members as well. Their hard work and unwavering "behindthescenes" dedication plays a vital role in making sure that the efforts of these brave investigators don't go unnoticed.

WHICH MAKES YOU BETTER THAN ME.I LOVE YOU GUYS AND PLEASE KEEP UP THE HARD BUT VERY WORTHWHILE WORK. IT CHANGED ME A FORMER HUNTER AND MEAT EATER. THANK YOU!.

That article has been up since 1025 and there are no comments. Today is the 27th so it isn't THAT late but there should have been some comments by now.
