Pretty sure the evidence is quite clear. The first black president was elected promising change. Now we have Trump who had no political background implying people want change Choosing the least painful way to get screwed isn't consent.

Depends on why you kill them. Q: If the govt tells you to kill someone is it wrong ? A : it depends :)

I haven't ever understood how being a felon removes a right ? Rights aren't something the govt gives so how can the govt remove them ?

You don't have sidewalks on streets with speeds of 50mph or more ? Here in AZ if you walk in front of a car and get hit, it is your fault. Legally. Arizona law does say that at no time, even when entering a crosswalk, should a pedestr

From my experience discussing personal responsibility in this forum and others is going to get you downvotes. No one wants to accept the fact they are responsible and they want to blame the system, because of this they don't blame othe

Some places do eat dogs. Animals are not humans and elevating them to that status is why you have ethical problems

Yes. I grew up on a farm. I used to hunt. I can raise slaughter clean and process animals. I have always been close to my food source and I think that is why I find this disconnect people have interesting. My wife can’t eat out of the garde

I choose to eat animals. You choose to eat plants. Question is why do you want plants to taste like animals and it was answered. Some folks don’t like killing. I don’t mind taking an animals life to eat. Therein lies the difference

>If that's correct, how is that not cruel? Animals don't want to die The animal will die regardless. The Native Americans would honor the animal and thank its spirit for the life force. To me that seems quite ethical.

Seems like if you think an act is cruel to be honest to yourself you simply shouldn’t do it. I would feel hypocritical were I to do this.

I would argue that you haven't ever really spent much time in nature. Example : Wolves and coyotes thrive on killing babies, nature is much more harsh than any farm I have seen.

Animal cruelty is an issue without eating meat being involved. That said, when you raise a cow and you know you are going to eat it most folks aren't so cruel. Kosher meats ( i have heard this ) are harvested with ethical methods. I th

I like sushi and steak tartar. My steaks typically have a bit of himalayan salt and a touch of pepper. I like the flavor of meat. Sauces and whatnot are used to hide the poor meat quality.

The thing I find silly is if you dont like eating animals or causing their death why eat fake animal meat ? It's like abstaining from sex by using a sex doll in my mind.

Thank you for the answer. Philosophically I understand you dont want to contribute to the death of an animal, that said, birth causes death. I am of the opinion folks should eat what they want and only worry about what they eat. Letting oth

Would someone who is a vegan answer this question I have and I mean no offense by it. Why do you want to eat vegetables that are fake meat or made to taste like meat ? It seems silly to me.
