Sweet, mother of God, it feels so good to have a debate and get worked up over something!
Why I won't stop eating meat
1: It tastes way too good!
2: The animals are dead anyway, why throw away the carcass?
3: Vegetarian people should worry about their own eating habits and stop being the food police to everyone.They act like imposing, arrogant pricks, and quite frankly, I don't like it.
4 Puts too many people out of work.
5:Who's gonna stop me!I don't get on guilt trips very easily, and it is impossible to persuade me to cry my heart out over the plight of turkeys
6: It seems to me that all the vegetarians care about are the cute animals. For instance dolphin safe tuna. I would rather eat tuna free dolphin or a combination of the two.
When it comes to people refraining from eating meat, I have no bones to pick with any of them. What I do Hate however, is when they try to
"enlighten" you. Back off, bub. If you think being a veghead is cool and helpful and all that happy horeshit, fine, be a veghead, be my guest. But don't go off telling me that liking to eat baby back ribs is a crime

Fine.
2: The animals are dead anyway, why throw away the carcass?
If everyone threw away the carcass, animals would no longer be killed.
3: Vegetarian people should worry about their own eating habits and stop being the food police to everyone.They act like imposing, arrogant pricks, and quite frankly, I don't like it.
I resent your own arrogant attitude. I am a vegetarian. I don't go shouting or screaming about it, and I certainly don't expect everyone else to be like me. Usually I find it's the meat eating people who impose
their views on
me as soon as they find out my diet. I then have a choice: fight back and be called a "food policeman", act like a prick and take in all this helpful advice, and ignore it, or start eating meat. Nice. No need to tar EVERYONE with the same brush.
4 Puts too many people out of work.
Fine. Just YOU not eating meat puts everyone in the industry out of work. Okay.
5:Who's gonna stop me!I don't get on guilt trips very easily, and it is impossible to persuade me to cry my heart out over the plight of turkeys
Fine. I just hope you aren't one of these people who believe in re-incarnation cross-species. Wouldn't that be good!

Golly gosh, aren't we getting excited now! "Vegheads".. that's a new one. As for this enlightening business, two things. Firstly, it works both ways as I said earlier. Secondly, if you have no gripe with vegetarians in general, why are you creating names for them that you think they might not like? Vegheads applies to every vegetarian, not just those who you dislike.
It's like saying:
"I'm not a racist, but I just hate it when those fucking niggers impose their views one me".
As for the cute cuddly animals part, some vegetarians couldn't give a shit. They just don't eat meat for health reasons... you'd be surprised all the hormones they feed those turkeys you were talking about...

I may be a meat eater but I am NOT lazy or ignorite. Not all meat eaters are that. I eat both foods to keep my diet balanced. So I think it is alright to eat meat as long as it is in a healthy manner. I believe that eating both meat and vegtibles is as normal as it gets. But it is perfectly healthy to be a vegiterein as long as you get some source of protean. That is something we all need and every adult humen in this world needs at least 62 grams of protean. It is unhealthy to have absolutly NO protean in your diet. If you had no protean in your diet then you could get really sick with Scruvey and possibly die. But at least there are protean suppliments in this world. You know?

Jesus Christ! You're one of these idiotic brown rice and lentil types.. Protein! hello, there is more than just meat around.. tofu, cheese, thousands of other food types. No need for protein supplements. You prove yourself to be ignorant after all.
And scurvey, or "scruvy" is caused by a severe lack of vitamin C anyway. Never mind.
This post is my personal opinion, I speak for no-one else, and I certainly don't want anybody getting all hot headed over it.
Over and out.
