Do angry vegans turn you against going vegan?

[Athos]

PaoloSanchez I'm on holiday. The breakfast buffet in the current hotel is unlimited. For every post you make on this thread from now on, I'm going to take another sausage, even if I can't eat it. Let's see if saving animals from being eaten is more important to you than having the last word.

It was bollocks then and is still bollocks now.

Nah, pretending to care about an issue like animal rights but rejecting direct action as psychotic is what's bollocks. Have a word with yourself.

Making shit up off the top of your head cos no argument is the genuine bollock article. Take a look in the mirror.

I'm relating stuff I've done before in real life, you pseud. I've got nothing to prove here, but you seem to have the way you keep coming back for the last word and echoing others' posts in slightly different words.

Yeah, you know, folks who believe slaughtering for no good reason is not the right thing to do.

More nonsense. So you've gone and smashed up places and believe that's the only way to get things done. How big of you. There's more than one way to peel a mango.

It's even easier to snipe. Maybe you need to try something harder.

So, Spymaster what do you think about personally killing & eating animals?

Well obviously I don't eat everything that I shoot, but someone does, and of course even some meat eaters find hunting and shooting distasteful. Dirty Sanchez will think I'm a psycho murderer.

I haven't shot deer or boar for a few years but that's more down to lack of opportunity than anything else. Last year on a pheasant shoot I shot a parakeet and strangely, felt really bad about it. Nobody was going to eat that and it nagged at me for ages afterwards. Same with foxes. Some shoots allow you to take ground game, including foxes, and I've shot a couple but don't anymore. Apart from anything else, if you're on a bird shoot you're probably carrying the wrong shells for fox, but it's more than that. Even murderers like me have limits. Last year we had one come over a wall and trot straight through the line. Everyone just watched. No one shot at him.

Shooting things to eat is different. There's a justification there but that's not what it's about really. There are much cheaper and easier ways to put meat on the table!

Yeah, maybe!

Rescued piglets served up as sausages to firefighters - BBC News

A litter of piglets whose bacon was saved from a barn fire has been served up as dinner to the firefighters who rescued them.

The 18 piglets and two sows survived the fire in Wiltshire in February, which saw 60 tonnes of hay catch fire.

In a potentially controversial move, farmer Rachel Rivers thanked the Pewsey fire team by giving them sausages.

She said: "I'm sure vegetarians will hate this." The firefighters however said the bangers were "fantastic".

The animals were given a six-month stay of execution when they were rescued from the farm at Milton Lilbourne.

But, having been reared for meat they have since been slaughtered and the sausages were delivered to the fire station team, which barbecued them.

Can a passing mod change the thread title to Do misanthropes who use horribly outdated racist tropes put you off going vegan?

People can choose who to be inspired by, and who to be put off by.

I can't see why anyone would have an issue with that or why it made the news. The pigs were always going to be eaten and not letting them burn to death is pretty normal!

The slaughter is for a very good reason. To feed people.

People can choose...who to be put off by.

Quotes like that not only put me off, but make me want to punch the twat saying it in the face.

Harming my bodies spirit lol

Exactly, and hopefully the folks that choose to go vegan do so after careful consideration of it's merits and not just based on some kneejerk reaction. There's still quite a way to go before critical mass especially given that habits are well established and entrenched, however I do believe that sense will prevail eventually and the words and actions from inspirational folks like those quoted will be the sparks that light the flames of compassion.

Doesn't look like that applies to you.

Now now bees. How can you be expected to love anybody else unless you first love yourself?

I'm not the one preaching some moral superiority here.

People who self-harm will inevitably go onto attack others. Its inevitable.

I know he qualifies it but its a truly bizarre statement, but you know stick it a frame and it becomes profound.

It's thoughtless shit that he probably made up on the spot. Very surprised that Jeff bothered posting it.

Not realising how offensively fucking stupid it was.
