Any Vegetarians/Vegans here?

Come now you don't believe this...... take for instance the cow, forced to be almost continuously pregnant to produce milk. After just a day, her young is forcibly removed. Overfed to produce as much milk as possible, the mechanical suckling cause infections in her udders. Most dairy cows only live a five or six years, when they have a natural life expectancy is around 25 years. Why do you think this is? They have a short brutal life, and when there exhausted bodies stop producing large amounts of milk they are killed.

And how are dairy cows and beef cows killed? Usually a capacitive bolt is used to induce a state of unconsciousness before having their throat slit. However studies show this is frequently not effective, with 8% of cattle(15% for young bulls) showing signs of consciousness http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.meatsci.2007.04.026 The fact is eating meat is cruel, and causes horrible suffering. An even if you could ensure a pain free life, they are still conscious beings whose life would be brutally cut short.

I don't have to believe, I've been there, done that and know all about it. You see, I now know you are talking out of your previleged city slicker ass. You probably would still juggling yourself from ball to ball in your dad's croutch while I was already helping cows in labour, feeding them, sanitizing their indoor quarters. I also visited many slaughterhouses, including worked on some. Any modern one makes sure the animal doesn't suffer because of ethical reasons and more importantly to them, stressed animals make bad quality meat.

I'm done with you and your pontification attempts, squirm all you want, I'm eating meat, vegetables, whatever and you have no right to tell me what I should or should not eat. Make all the excuses you want, its just whining from a previleged kid. Go join PETA or play with your willy, I'll give 0 fucks about it.
