Never lose sight of the fact that no-one's hands are clean. Animals are
killed in every type of food production, not to mention in the
development of the medicines and treatments and other modern
conveniences that support our comfort, longevity and quality of life.

And the deaths and suffering of humans has also contributed to
our comfort, longevity and quality of life. It is all a matter of
degree -- something which Rick Etter and Jon Ball cannot grasp.

It's a cheap rush to single out and point fingers at others.

That's right. Like the way assholes point fingers at animal rights
activists, or environmental activists, or communists, or liberals,
or feminists, or criminals or extremists
or any other group of individuals for the assholes' or society's
troubles and woes.
