People are always assuming I'm some kind of hippie vegan because I have compassion for animals. That is such a fallacy. I eat meat. But I don't use that as an excuse to inflict unnecessary suffering on another living creature.
The manner in which we kill an animal and the manner in which we treat it while it's still alive is important.

I agree... it is hard to see any living thing suffer...
Whether it be a human being, or one of Michael Vicks dogs, there is no reason for cruelty.

I agree. I eat meat, but I don't justify torture in killing an animal. I think the animal should be killed a painlessly as possible. Good luck. 2D

I was meditating today, and I had a vision of eating my pet cat. It was probably the most disturbing thing I've ever seen, because when I started eating Gambit, he wasn't dead yet. I don't think I can eat meat anymore now.

Why is it that Animal Rightists don't mind squashing mosquitoes?
Do animal rights circumscribe to cute vertebrates and colorful birds from the Amazonian jungles?
Will you sue lions for eating antelopes while they are still alive and bleeding to death?

I eat meat too, but I try to buy free ranged and cruelty free brands as much as possible.

So what does it mean that I have more compassion for animals than people?

Being a lion justifies eating wildebeestes.

Unnecessary cruelty is... well... unnecessary. I don't see much connection between it and being carnivorous though.
