Ok you're wrong.Chickens in factory farms are deliberately stressed out (molting) in order to restart the egg laying cycle.Already under stress from overcrowding,they are debeaked to keep them from pecking each other.They are butchered alive to raise profit margins.That's just ONE animal.

Ok, Please give me a link or 2 to the information you are giving to me. Cuz I haven't seen it.

need meat to survive. Spare me whatever non-fact based argument you may have regarding that and take it up with any competent doctor.

[EftahYaSemsem1991]

And of course, we believe that intellect, brain size or any other superficial and man-styled requirements for worthiness of life are completely invalid. It doesn't matter whether or not you like humans more or I like animals more. We don't have the right to exploit human or non-human animals for our own profit(be it medical or financial) or pleasure(we eat meat not as our only means of proper sustenance in a developed western society, but for taste and out of habit). Please don't tell me humans

@emkoirl: just wanted to clarify: vegans acknowledge that it's a strange situation when one must choose between an animal and a human and so our goal is to end all animal domestication. All farm animals, all pets. We would like if they stopped reproducing and eventually ceased to exist. Then we would never be faced with this bizarre dilemma, and would be able to respect wild animals of course, without ever interacting with them.

and for your information, the animals aren't 'comfortable' in a factory farm. They're fed steroids to make them grow faster, so they're bones don't grow properly, and a lot of them become unable to walk properly, having to walk on their knees or not even walking at all, sometimes starving to death only feet away from food and water.

'sure there going to die, but everything dies eventually!'

Well if its inevitable, why dont you just go kill yourself, cause your head is clearly fucked up. I don't understand how you can not be against factory farming.

[1imesub]

This is stupid. Factory farms and slaughter houses are pure evil. If you support that kind of evil, what's to stop you from supporting another Adolf Hitler? Same thing, just on a much, much larger scale. If you can't identify evil when you see it, something is wrong with your brain.

Cattle aren't raised in feedlots, they are "broken" from a pasture gradually. Ragetony, take a look at how thousands of farmers are losing their ability to participate in free economy through govt subsidized standards. By the way, I love meat.

[johnjoeba]

i think y0u are s0 true

[sef789]

You are correct. Domestic animals want for little while wild animals often suffer and die of starvation, disease, or predation.
