But you have no qualms about eating factory farmed veggies? Why is that?
Afterall, the animals that are killed for your cheap, conveninet veggies die
far more horrible, inhumane deaths than slaughterhouse animals do.

Oh, yeah, forgot to mention that I like your proving that veg*nism is all
about hate. Just what we've been seeing here on usenet for a long time...

· Since the animals we raise for food would not be alive
if we didn't raise them for that purpose, it's a distortion of
reality not to take that fact into consideration whenever
we think about the fact that the animals are going to be
killed. The animals are not being cheated out of any part
of their life by being raised for food, but instead they are
experiencing whatever life they get as a result of it. ·

The USA Today and COK ( http://www.cok.net ) both had big exposes how
the term "free range" is meaningless.

Many, many companies will use that term and the animals live and die in
horrible conditions.

There is no legal standard or enforcement of the term the way there is
for "organic".

Anyone can.......and apparently does, call their products free range.

If you haven't visited the facilities you are better off not eating the
eggs and savign your cash if ethics are your concern.

ROTFLMAO Yeah, buy bananas instead!! What a hoot!! You could of course
just find a farmer in your area, and buy his chickens after watching how
they are raised. Our neighbors chickens seem to spend more time in our back
lot around the pond than in their own area. Guess they must be cooped up
in terrible conditions, eh fool?

I just love the continued irony and hypocrisy of vegan loons that maintain
webpages. Talk about unnecessary animal death and suffering!
All for nothing more than your ego-stroking pleasure and entertainment.

How about pulling your cow udder hat up off your eyes and start
providing some photographic evidence of your claims?

How about some photographic evidence of these happy chickens?

For me, I only eat eggs locally grown by neighbors. They usually have
names--the chickens I mean. This way I know they are living good chicken
lives, getting no bad stuff put into them and that they live in good
conditions.

I ate one of Lucy's eggs just yesterday! Damn those are good eggs!

I wont buy eggs from the store, period.

good luck!

Unfortunately there are loons here that will reject any information of this
type. You know, and I know that there are real free-range eggs and meat
available, but those with an agenda will deny the truth. See Ronny-boy for
exhibit A.

it is a freaking vegan group, it is not an agenda....i, and i am sure
most of the people you accuse of having an agenda do not troll meat
eating groups and talk about how wrong we feel your choice is. oh, but
you do just that to us, that is an agenda.

No fool, it's facts. Something that you lack, severly.

Come on, defend you veganism. Prove what you say about causing less animal
death and suffering, and environmental damage. You can't. You have
nothing but a simple rule for your simple mind, 'eat no meat.' Otherwise
you wouldn't continue to spew your ignorance.


Now, go have that nice blood-drenched dinner, killer.
