Vegan groups being “militant”

[ger147]

I'm against cruelty to vegetables... #downwithvegans #montheveg

If a vegetarian life style is so healthy why do they usually need to take supplements?

Why do we have 'canine' teeth?

A healthy and balanced diet needs to include meat protein.

Live and lettuce live I say

 

[HomerJSimpson]

I have no qualms about veggies and respect their beliefs. It's not for me and I'm a confirmed carnivore. I find the sort of actions in the OP abhorrent and serves their cause no good. Give me a bacon roll (and brown sauce) steak and kidney pie and a good piece of rump (although not at the same time please)

Sorry but that statement is rubbish.

I have no objection to people's beliefs as long as they respect those of others which these people clearly don't.
Perhaps we really do need one of these.

Used to work with a couple of Vegans, they'd take every opportunity to preach the virtues of and try to slag off all meat eaters..

I get they want to live the plant based life but to then suddenly be offended by others choice to eat meat is just further proof of the snowflakes that exist in modern society

What I generally seem to find is that people's vegan beliefs are respected but the same is not reciprocated. I've found most vegans that I have had face to face dealings with to be very combative and not at all happy people.

But for some reason "we" have to put up with these kinds of public displays because somehow they have taken the higher ground.

Brighton. Worried about that town. Saw an article today about the latest "agenda based" lies being told to young kids.

I respect anyone who doesnt want to eat or use animals. But no need to riot! Interesting that they do, they go to Waitrose (probably woudlnt be seen in dead Aldi!!!!)

I guess that your are referring to Brighton & Hove Council giving the green light to primary schools to teach that boys can also have periods.
WTF? Something needs to be done to stop these deranged people from having any further influence on our childrens education.

Never thought of my daughter as a weirdo, and pretty sure anyone that has met her would think her one.

No, they are just misunderstood

Wonder how much methane they produce. I mean look at cows and they only eat grass.

Sadly yes. I was worried that mine might start, I’m only 55 🤪. In all seriousness, how do they get away with it?

To be honest, I hated the maths period, with chemistry not far behind. Double PE was good though.

Coat.... got..... gone.

I used to work with someone who practiced the Jain religion. They don’t even eat certain root vegetables because of the pain that inflicted on the plant by removing the vegetable from the root. They are very peaceful people though and unlikely to have an antagonistic protest.

Men do have hormonal cycles that impact our moods in a similar way to PMT in women. Because we have no overt physical symptoms it’s hard to pin down but it does happen.

As Kelly says, my hormonal cycles co incide with a Tuesday and Thursday when I play golf 👍

I am 61 years old and have been a vegetarian since I was 6. The thought of rearing animals so we can murder them in order we can then eat their insides is quite strange to me. Now, do not get me wrong, I am not militant, and I don't preach my beliefs. Please don't bother to enter into the conversation indicating that we are natural meat eaters, because this is a subject I am pretty much an expert on. As a realist, I believe that as long as we produce animals for meat, their lives on this planet should be pleasant, and their slaughter should be quick and painless. I would like to think that any civilised person would agree with this. The slaughter practice Jews and Muslims prefer is abhorrent, and a country such as ours should have banned such practices many years ago.

Regardless of what you may or may not like eating, man kind will sooner or later have to change their eating habits. Animal farming is pretty dangerous to our ecology, and the more people we keep producing, the more animals we need to breed. We simply don't have the space, and the global warming effect from animal farming is horrendous. I would simply suggest people take a look at their diet, if not just for their own health, but the good of the planet.

Veggie at 6! Wowsers. Did you make the choice or was it something your folks asked you to do?
