What makes you think cute fuzzy animals don't die in grain production?

Cool. Another one that doesn't think animals die in farm fields?









Here are some sites, with info on specific areas and
pesticides. Animals die.

Since your non-animal clothing isn't cruelty-free either,
here's a couple to cover some problems with cotton.

To give you an idea of the sheer number of animals in a field,
here's some sites about *just* mice and voles. Note that there
can be 100s to 1000s in each acre, not the whole field.

That would be a travesty indeed for an animal to die in a farm field!

Why, I say every animal deserves to make it to the slaughterhouse!

==================
Such witty remarks. Why is it you can't discuss the issue at hand though?
Too afraid to?

Now, go have that nice blood drenched breakfast, killer.

"Blood-drenched" should be hyphenated . . .

Actually, I had a bagel for breakfast. To you, that probably makes me a
Zionist pig.

====================
Ah, yet another strawman instead of discussing the issue. Wonder why that
is. Oh, yeah, you have nothing to add, that's right.


Your bagel does not come without some blood letting, so enjoy, killer..

More like this thread has yet to delve into anything substantive, so why not
have some fun rattling the lunatics' cages? You know, **** around with
their bullshit Gaia hysteria a little bit.

Oh, and in case you're a little slow on the uptake, as would seem the case,
you're one of the lunatics.

> Your bagel does not come without some blood letting, so enjoy, killer..


Does the fact that it was slathered with butter mitigate the slaughter?

Oh, and by the way, "bloodletting" is one word . . .

======================
Glad to see you've found a purpose in life. I'll sned all further posts to
you for proofreading from now on, since you have nothing to offer except
on-line spell checking, fool.
