Not Just Changing What I Do but How I think

How I view my family..
I have a really sweet mom and dad that I love so much! 
I have a 17 year old annoying pain in the butt brother- Nick, a really shy sister named Jenny who is 7 years old, My brother Carlo, who was in the border patrol that passed away 4 years ago, another 8 moth old brother, Carlitto, who is a spunky handful. 
I have a 2 year old daughter named Lilly and a 5 year old son Franky, and another 4 year old son named Rafiki who I love unconditionally. 

How the rest of the world sees my family... 
I live with my parents and one brother(Nick). They see us as a family of 4 that "owns" 2 dogs Jenny and Carlitto, 2 cats Franky and Lilly, and had a dog that was part of the Border Patrol K9 Unit and passed away 3 years ago. 

Its not that I just dont eat meat or wear fur- I perceive the world differently I love my human and non human family members the same.

23,000 people are murdered in Taiji, Japan every year and noone cares

23,000 people are murdered in Taiji, Japan every year. Men, women, children… not one person is spared. Yet, this massacre goes unnoticed, covered up by the heartless perpetrators of the crime. 
The people are first herded together into a group, falling into a trap there was never an escape from. The best of the lot are then picked out and sold as slaves, splitting up families and friends. The ones who don’t quite reach their standards are left (many being kids because of their small size and weakness). Kept in cramped spaces for the night, children stay close to their mothers for protection, but that could never be enough for what horrifying things await them… 
The next day, after a long, terrifying and uncertain night, the holocaust finally begins. The murderers come with smiles on their faces, full of anticipation for the deaths that are to follow. They approach with ease and with no feeling of guilt in their hearts. 
They start with the strongest – the people they know will put up a fight and want to kill first. They drag them away from their families and, using a spear, either stab them or slit their throats. The last image these poor people have of the world is an image of confusion, pain and blood. 
Once the strong ones are killed, they go for the defenceless. They wrench them away one by one and repeat the process. Children have to watch their parents be slaughtered before their eyes and are left alone and unprotected, before they too meet the same fate. 

I know what you’re thinking – “Is this for real? People should not be treated like this! This needs to be stopped!” etc. 
But there is just one problem - they’re not people… they’re dolphins. 

Why does everyone think there is such a big difference?

I found it on a message board and loved it!!
