Look, if you're so concerned about people killing animals, stop looking at us omnivores who enjoy some meat on their plate. How about turning your attention to the farming industries that YOU rely on that destroy acres of habitats for organisms eh?

Look, this isn't the point. The point is, any form of globalized industry you rely on, whether it be for clothing or furniture, contributes in the destruction of habitats for organisms. So why are you specifically targeting us omnivores?

you know that farms are not going to stop raising cattle and such for meat if the demand for it does not go down. thats why we try to spread the word on the truths about the meat, dairy and egg industries. even if you were to still eat the way you do, you should at least know what you put animals through for them to get on your plate.
EDIT
your right, no matter how much good we do, we will probably always be exploiting animals in some way. but that is no reason to not try at all. doing some good is better than sitting back and saying "oh, we will never get every bit of animal exploitation to stop. we might as well not bother helping them at all"

i'm no longer an Atheist yet I consistently ask your self why Atheists are so rapid to push aside those issues , while they are in a position to be defined away in medical words the string concept , distinctive dimensions , situations lines ... those issues can help clarify it the way it replaced into defined to me replaced into... time is nearly a river ... it flows in one course downstream from us , somebody has thrown a rock into the river , inflicting some ripples those staring on the river may even see those ripples the ripples are activities that have disenchanted time in some way or maybe the ghost phenomena is skipped over or recognized as ridiculous by technique of many Atheists ... while ghosts could nicely be positioned right down to residual skill I dont get what the fuss is approximately believing interior the supernatural , would not advise they ought to drop their Atheism identify and characteristic issues to a God edit for Gazoo ... the SPR has many peer reviewed articles on such issues

Coke cat, I seen the video's, its murder, plain an simple!
I agree that people should focus there concern on the meat industry, which is what I am trying to figure out, there has got to be a more ethical way of doing this, but again, it is murder!
Is it going to stop me from eating meat? No! I don't think that will help either, but there has to be a middle ground solution, the problem is finding it!
And I wouldn't attack vegans, you will not win! Open your mind to there idea's, you don't have to agree with them, but look closely and gain an understanding, maybe then you can help find that middle ground.

If you have such issues with what Vegan's do, stop coming into this section that has nothing to do with what is on your plate.
PS: Many, Many more acres of land is used in the meat industry then growing vegetables. Please educate yourself since you have obviously have no idea what you are talking about.

Actually, more deforestation occurs as a result of clearing land to make room for cows than vegetables. Sure, veganism still does destroy some habitats, but not nearly as many as factory farming does.
We do the best we can. I think you need to reevaluate your way of thinking if someone's diet bothers you. It's my choice to be vegan, and I'm not forcing this on you, so why come into a topic for us, and attack our views? I wouldn't go into some religious forum and randomly attack what they believe in. Would you? I think it's a bit rude.
Take care.

Would you care to look up statistics on animal deaths in an omnivore vs. vegan diet? In today's society, one can only do so much. Many vegans have their own gardens as well and try not to rely on the grocery store.

because suffering is suffering. when your dog gets injured he whines, when a pig has his throat cut he screams and fights for life. i cannot eat something that screamed something that had a social structure something that feels and remembers.
and about veggies, i have a nice garden and only eat organics which rely on crop rotation which includes letting the land lie fallow rather than synthetic pesticides and fertilizers.
burger king is one of the largest destroyers of tropical rainforest land. they buy cheap rainforest land in central america and pay locals to burn it to plant grass and then raise and slaughter cheap cows and bring it back to the states to serve cheap burgers.

I love animals, But I do like to eat them too. I just recently came to realize that I can't, or a big group of activists can't change the fact that animals WILL be killed for Human consumption. It's too big to change, it is what it is so deal with it. If you couldn't tell, I'm not a vegan.
