You could twist that around and say 'these' meat eaters scoff down their meat, and then go and spend a fkin bomb lovingly taking care of their pet dog, cat, rabbit, hamster etc.
Not really the same thing Massa. Pet owners don't harass others on the value of keeping a cat. I respect anyone who takes a stand on something they believe in, even if I don't share the same belief, but some veggies go waaaaay over the top. I love animals, every pet I have ever had has been a stray, I make ma point of that, but I am sorry I like meat. I don't always like how that meat ends up on my plate, but that's not what we are discussing. Humans are predators, that is a scientific fact, (we are NOT solely dependent on meat but we most definitely fall into the predator category. My problem with some veggies is calling people murderers when they eat a steak. I am 100% some hard core veggies would teach a lion to eat tofu if they could.
I am all for a cause but when causes are often one step away from being fundamentalist (i.e the loonies who blow up abortion clinics to stop killings, or the people who burn massive car dealers to save the planet).
All that aside I can see your point. I have said to my mates many times that I'd probably be a veggie except I love meat. I know that might sound weird but its true
