What have I written that is insanity?

A vegetarian diet only ensures animals may not be *eaten*, not that they
will not be killed collaterally. Grain planting and harvesting are
particularly lethal for animals. See the first pic on the page linked
below. Add to that the use of pesticides, which are used even in organic
farming, transportation, etc., no food is free of animal deaths or
suffering.

Such tautology is the practice of people like you, who assume that
because meat is not *eaten* that animals are not killed. You forget the
fact that animals range in farmland, and farmland is harvested using
machinery. You must count the animals who get run over by combines,
flooded by irrigation, or killed by pesticides in your assessments of
suffering and death. You choose not to do this, and instead repeat your
proclamations that because you do not *eat* animals that you are morally
responsible for preventing harm to them. Nothing could be further from
the truth. Eating venison causes the death of one deer. How many were
run over, like the fawn in the pic, harvesting your wheat, rice, or
corn? *That* is the issue. Deal with it.

Funny that you would presume to take the high road in this debate and
then allude to cartoon characters. Running out of ammo?

I've never seen this show to which you allude (only promos), so I can
only make my a priori assessments about your watching cartoons. How old
are you, anyway?
