: "Susanne and Vickie Booboo Adams" cut & pasted:
:
: Black Americans suffered at
: the hands of research scientists just as animals continue
to do today.
:
: Ooooh boy... this radical chic stuff is so maudlin. Things
like that *did*
: happen (now a long time ago), but not universally, and not
with broader
: public knowledge. Fifty years ago there was still plenty of
bad science and
: medicine being practiced, and not just on African Americans.
:
: If you had on kill your own
: hog before you ate it, most likely you would not be able
to do it.
:
: Saaaay what? If I were starving and had as my only choice
lack of protein
: and malnutrition or sacrificing the family pig, I'd tell
Wilbur I'm sorry
: for eating him and then I would end his life in the most
merciful way
: possible. If I want to crank the ritual up a notch, I'd
follow Inuit
: protocol.
:
: When asked if humans will ultimately have to answer to a
Supreme Being
: for their exploitation of animals, Gregory replied, "I
think we answer
: for that every time we go to the hospital with cancer and
other
: diseases."
:
: Funny, every time a vegetarian goes to the hospital they
benefit from the
: use of lab animals.
:
: Every time a vegetarian eats a vegetable product that is
produced via
: mechanized agriculture they are also consuming the dead
animals whose
: burrows were crushed by the large mechanized reapers and
combines. Those
: dead voles, moles, shrews, field mice, rats and rabbits
contribute to
: fertilizing the fields. That's the cycle of life.
:
: It's no wonder most Americans can't sort out environmental
issues (like the
: need for sustainable agriculture), when radical chic
enviromaniacs hijack
: the issues and render the whole problem incomprehendable.

Common sense is in short supply, isn't it? But I think it is
less in short supply than some who delude themselves as
intellectuals and/or experts into believing.
