Hello Everyone,

Ever see those dairy commercials on TV and wished you could interrupt them with a heavy dose of truth? Well this is your opportunity. Diary not only kills animals but is responsible for many human diseases. Children are dying all over the world because their mother's milk is being replaced with cow baby formula as a result of the an aggressive marketing campaign by the dairy industry. Cow milk is far from the perfect food and while the list of health problems caused by the consumption of cow milk grows, the dairy industry continues to push it's poising on consumers as a health food. They lie and animals/people die! We will be there from 5-8pm.

Below is an ad the Dairy industry ran on Craig List. NYC Animal Rights needs volunteers to hold a few signs and hand out any-dairy literature. The truth must be heard. Please join us for a couple of hours or the entire event. I am very passionate about this issue and will be very vocal about it.

Dinner will follow after this event if there is enough interest.

Thank you for your support.

The 2008 got milk? Milk Mustache Mobile Tour is reaching out to women and families to share the growing body of research highlighting the role milk plays in weight loss and a healthy lifestyle. The "Chief Health Officer" mobile tour is rewarding moms for all they do and allowing members of
their family to mom-inate her to win her very own milk mustache ad.

The tour will be visiting the NY area Wednesday, 9/24 & Thursday, 9/25 and we need the help of several enthusiastic, energetic and highly motivated promotional staff ambassadors to help setup, breakdown and execute each event. No prior experience necessary, just a great attitude and the
ability to communicate successfully with the public about our tour's focus.

Females are highly preferred, since the program's target is women. However, males will not be turned away! Please apply immediately if interested and specify your availability, as spots fill quickly and are on a first come first serve basis. Photos are requested when applying, standard screening procedure. The pay is $14 per hr.

    It's addictive too. I was off milk products until I started dating/kissing a guy who ate cheese. Cravings galore. Before I couldn't even stand the smell of cheese. A man bought me a drink in a bar. He said he was in the cattle industry. I gave him my take on subject. Mentioned the young girls developing breasts. He said "Oh We like that part" Those criminals. I hope they plan to pick up the medical tabs when we see an explosion of breast cancer in young women.

    Drinking milk is the same as eating veal, I will do everything I can to get off work and lend my support.

    • “ Great job everyone!! The milk campaign left early on account of our voices speaking the TRUTH!!! ”
    • “ Thank you to those that came out to the east side to slam the dairy industry with the message of truth! How do you define a successful protest? When the target packs and leaves. That's right, the "Milk Mustache Campaign" couldn't handle the truth and left after only an hour and half after they set up their three tents. Not a single person posed for their ads, they never got to spin the prize wheel or make a single milk shake. Yes we were that good. They played loud music to drown out our words, but we called the police and they were forced to shut it down. We gave out way more literature than they did free cow milk. They were totally not prepared for our type of protest. I felt bad when they left but that's because it was so much fun to put them in their place. Great job everyone! ”
    • “ The milk mustache mobile with their pathetic free give aways which was so transparent in that they followed the same format as free cigarette give aways, is a testimonial on how low the dairy industry will stoop to push a product that should be illegal. I can't wait to see the day when the dairy industry will have to air commercials informing the public of all the harm their product propigates on humans and animals alike. ”
    • “ Victory! We chased those fools right off the block and out of town, in one hour. The cops shut 'em up and we shut 'em down. That was fabulous. I was elated. The dairy industry is on the downswing. ”
