Farming Kills!

The troubling facts agribusiness has been hiding us for millenia:
agriculture causes malaria, the number one killer in the world!

A call to action: immediate boycott of all agriculturally-produced
products.

You may not realize how insidious agriculture is; it has worked its
way into almost every aspect of our lives.  Even the clothes you're
wearing are likely made of agricultural products like cotton or wool.
Once thought to be a benefit to mankind, we now know that these
products and more are the world's number one killer!

I urge you to boycott the following products:
* meat
* farm-grown fruits and vegetables
* dairy products (eggs, milk, cheese)
* grains
* textiles
* vegetable oils
* any agriculturally-produced seed varieties

Get the word out!  We can send a message to these killers that we
won't take it anymore!
