****wit, formerly known as "David Harrison", seems to
have new enthusiasm for trying to make his lousy trick work. Here's the essence of it. 1. "vegans" are upset that animals are killed for human consumption (we'll ignore the MASSIVE "vegan" hypocrisy in that for a moment, as it has been adequately addressed elsewhere by numerous others.) 2. "vegans" don't eat meat, in order not to contribute to this form of animal death: animals deliberately killed by humans in order to consume the animal products. Their goal is to cause fewer animals to be bred and raised and slaughtered than would be the case if these people consumed animal products. 3. ****wit thinks, as his writing over a four and a half year period shows, that wanting to eliminate farm animals is a morally bad thing. He wants to persuade "vegans" that they should stop being "vegans". 4. ****wit knows that his stupid "getting to experience life" argument is full of holes, so he does a little switcheroo, thinking no one will notice: he cynically suggests that people can have an impact on the lives of animals that DO exist, by being so-called "ethical" or "conscientious" consumers. There are three big problems with this: a. ****wit himself doesn't practice what he preaches. He buys meat without regard to the quality of lives of the animals raised to produce it. He is a massive hypocrite. b. He can't address "vegans'" beliefs about the deliberate killing of farm animals. They feel it's wrong, and ****wit can't offer anything to try to persuade them it isn't; he simply offers his own biased belief that it isn't. c. Everyone can see through the stupid ****ing trick! No one is fooled into thinking that ****wit is trying to improve the quality of life of farm animals who DO live; he quite obviously is trying to trick the "vegans" into supporting life per se for farm animals. ****wit has not learned a thing, not a goddamned thing, in over four years. He's a moron. Ray Slather |

He's a moron. Ray Slather Sniff......sniff sniff....sniff sniff sniff sniff....GAG. Peeeeeeewwwwwwwwww!!!!! Someone sure does smell like a Gonad around here. If that's you Ray, which doesn't seem all that likely, you'd better get cleaned up a bit before you infect someone's resperatory system. But if that's really you Gonad, anyone who's been around you is contaminated already. And you've got the kind of stench that goes to the bone. There's no hope of cleaning your nasty ass up. If anyone else is reading this, the Gonad who wrote it is in great opposition to me pointing out that some types of meat involve less deaths than some types of veggies. And that people can contribute to decent lives for farm animals with their diet, but they can't do it by being veg*n. That is what he's mainly opposed to....he doesn't want anyone to consider an alternative to veg*nism that would promote decent lives for farm animals, because "ARAs" like himself want to see domestic animals eliminated, NOT provided with decent lives. There is a huge difference in Animal Welfare and the gross mi$nomer "Animal Rights", and people like the Gonad don't want other people to swing the AW direction because it would be moving in a direction that would oppose what "ARAs" hope to accomplish. __________________________________________________ _______ AVMA Policy on Animal Welfare and Animal Rights Animal welfare is a human responsibility that encompasses all aspects of animal well-being, from proper housing and nutrition to preventive care, treatment of disease, and when necessary, humane euthanasia. The AVMA's commitment to animal welfare is unsurpassed. However, animal welfare and animal rights are not the same. AVMA cannot endorse the philosophical views and personal values of animal rights advocates when they are incompatible with the responsible use of animals for human purposes, such as food and fiber, and for research conducted to benefit both humans and animals. http://www.avma.org./care4pets/morewelf.htm#rights ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ __________________________________________________ _______ [...] Thus, whereas welfarists seek to *reform* current practices of animal exploitation, while retaining such exploitation in principle, rights advocates oppose all such exploitation in principle and seek to *abolish* all such exploitation in practice. [...] Many animal rights people who disavow the philosophy of animal welfare believe they can consistently support reformist means to abolition ends. This view is mistaken, we believe, for moral, practical, and conceptual reasons.
