Animal abusers make me sick, I'll stick to chucking ferrets.

You could just stick to eating leaves and shagging trees... :confused:

Double Doggy Dare.

Yes, they are three simple words, but what the heck are you talking about?

But this is untrue - if you did stop eating meat, you would stop some of the slaughter.

However small the industrial impact of one less meat-eater, there is nontheless some impact.

With enough impact, things eventually change. It is a long road, but it is as simple as that.

But just like people who complain about media manipulation yet still contribute to the viewing figures and newspaper sales, sometimes we just have to admit our hypocrisy and put these things to the back of our minds.

The tasty fruit/unwanted seed analogy might be significant here.

I love turkey and I can't wait to eat some on Thanksgiving. It will probably be a Butterball too... but I have had freshly slaughtered turkey and it's pretty damn tasty. My cousin was actually raising a few this year, but I think he was only doing it for the eggs.

haha... Well, I still definitely believe in eating free range.

My problem with being veggie (I was a vegetarian for 2 years in college after reading John Singer), was that I wasn't very healthy about it... I figured out that I could STILL eat pizza and be vegetarian... But that's not healthy.

So, I wasn't healthy about it... And went through a period of time where my previous convictions just weren't... that... important to me anymore. I joke about it, but it was actually pretty sad. :(

That being said, I'm definitely a proponent for buying local, organic, and free range... Or to at least be conscious of how animals are treated in the industry (it bothers me that people either don't know or don't CARE to know... but that's their prerogative).


Also... For Thanksgiving... Forget turkey. We're eating duck. Mmmmmmm.

I was vegan for 6 years. I'm not very picky about what I eat so I didnt have a problem with the taste of vegan food. I had a girlfriend who was VERY vegan. She expected me to go to protests and not wear certain types of cloths because of the leather, yada yada yada. I'm all about doing what makes you happy. Maybe I'm a bad man. Maybe I just don't care. I will tell you this. I love turkey. I love the way it tastes. I love how it makes me tired after I eat it.
I think being vegetarian has come to be nothing more than an ongoing fad. Its what the cool kids do! If it came down to it I would eat people. I'll eat anything(and I have) as long as it is cooked, tastes good, and is too much of a strain on my body.
I would be more than happy to purchase a bird, kill it, and prepare it.

The only thing that bothers me is what someone said about that guy molesting the turkeys. Thats just sick and an indication of the possiblity of that individual doing something waaaaay worse down the road.

EAT TURKEY! :D

Thanksgiving is just something mentioned from time to time in our house. But then, I suppose you don't celebrate Bonfire night or pancake day.
