actually its not about that at all. its about how they make you feel that they are better than you.
I dont like the fact that they take a higher stance point then you because you still eat meat. One gets a similar discrimination when one smokes too.

The best comeback there I've heard is that if you're going to kill and eat something, why go after all those harmless, innocent vegetables when you should be taking your wrath out on all those creatures that exploit those innocent vegetables? Talk about justice -- how more ethical can you get? ;)
:LOL:

for some reason that reminds me of an episode on Ali G where he was interviewing some animal rights people who looked like they were gonna be sick at the sound of "Big Mac".

He asked one of them "So what would you say if I told you, "eat this chicken, or else we'll kill another chicken".

The guy was stumped!

That's bullshit and the biggest generalisation ever!

I know tons of vegaterians and they don't do any of that. It's a personal choice, many don't eat meat because of the cruelty to the animals in the process not for some religious reason or to make a statement.

Look around, there is a popular site (i've forgot it) that recently posted videos of some of these things. Animals being skinned alive, animals getting lifted out of a cage and having their head smashed of the ground. Worst is an animal lying on the ground with it's skin removed, still breathing. It's sick.

I couldnt care less what they do to the animals to be honest. Its not my problem.

Yes, and i was talking about the ones do that and i accept the fact there are vegies who dont, but it doesnt take away from the fact alot of them do.

Is it your problem if they feed the animals shit (human variety) and you eat it?
Why on Earth would they do that? By definition, it shouln't have any nutrients worth feeding to animals

ermm I don't remember the site.

A decent starting point would be PETA's website, they should have some links

Or you can do a search on the forums like "animal cruelty" or something

I have a story

Sometimes when Im speaking in english, I just translate my spanish thoughts into english and say them outloud.
I was at a friend's dorm and there were like four more people there. Everyone went outside to smoke and my friend forgot the dorm's key. We had ordered a pizza and the pizza guy came and since we were locked out we didnt have money to pay, so we started asking random people that were in the street. Two guys that were drunk went by and we started calling them, when they came I asked one for money and started begging him for five dollars. The guy kept saying no, and I said "I will get on my knees for five dollars."
What I had said seemed perfectly normal in spanish, but after I said it outloud in english I realized that I just had offered that guy head. The guy started saying nasty things that I cant remember, and I turned all red. Always happens to me

:LOL: he probably thought he was getting the bargain of a lifetime :D
Actually, he was like "You know, I dont usually get head from random people on the street." which made me be angrier because he indirectly called me a whore. I just told him to leave
