Isnt it true that we are not like lions, fish, cats and all other animals? We are in fact animals, but we have a highly developed brain capable of a thing called... Compassion. Sure, lions dont feel sympathy for the gazzelle they are eating. Yet, if you were given a knife and then a calf placed in front of you, you could restrain it, kill it, and cut a nice piece of flank for your evening meal? Wait, that is what supermarkets are for.

So, when you guys eat meat, I accept it. Frankly it is your choice. I say "ignorance" because you say "People for the Eating of Tasty Animals". These animals die to sustain your life, and you toss it around as if it means nothing. These animals did not just die though, they suffered for a long time before death finally relieved them of thier pain. Probally to some of you, it really means nothing... But that is your opinion, and I have mine. I just try and get people to think outside the box.
