Question for "animal lovers"

[bcp]

If you are not vegan, why?

Do you only love certain animals? and if so, why is it different to love the animal you love and not other animals.
For instance, how can you chastise someone for not liking cats, while you bite into a burger?

Either you love animals or you don't. Put your money where your mouth is and stop eating meat to show your love.

unless of course you are hypocrites, then by all means, kill one but save another.

I dont recall you trying to take the high road on animal rescue and love.
for the record, I dont have anything against eating meat.
I dont, but, my choice, not my mandate for others.

I am curious why those in a position to respond and clear this up, have been unable to do so.

Why wouldnt you?

whats the difference between that and cats?

no, idiotic is claiming to love animals and claiming to want to save them while you support the industry that kills them by the millions..

Who ate the steak? I thought we were talking about cats and chickens? Did someone say cats taste like chicken?

I saw that.. seems somewhat nasty to me.

Think I'll pass on it.

Maybe with enough tomato smoothie poured on top?

We are talking about meat. Animal flesh.. But Im glad you dont eat cow based products.

but you know that.
Now dont try to cloud the issue, I am honestly looking for the answer here..

Are you taking about PETA people or people who believe animals should be treated humanely?
In general I would rather pay more for food than know it came from a cruel source. Like I only buy cage free eggs. In could not care less about the organic part but the cage free part. I probably am a bit hypocritical though because I do not know where my beef comes from but I love a good steak. I hope the cows are treated well but I guess I do not know for sure and that makes me a hypocrite.

It does not make you a hypocrite.
nothing wrong with eating meat,, if my grill is going I'll throw one on for you.

and PETA people are fricking nuts,, just for the record.

Beef by the way is not treated well.

Shooting a feral cat with a .22 is much more humane that the way meat is processed.

It wasn't a smart question. Why would an animal lover have to be vegan? Why isn't vegetarian good enough. Dairy doesn't kill cows.

I love animals although I don't consider myself "over the top". I eat meat, mostly poultry and seafood and on a very rare occasion a steak, or pork. We are animals and are made to eat meat and vegitation. Given how are "guts" are made, mostly vegitation.

In our society it's not acceptable for animal lovers or animal haters to eat "pets". In other countries they don't bat an eye at eating, cats, dogs, or even bugs. In other countries cows are sacred.

A lot of animals eat meat, it's nature. If I was a vegetarian because I loved animals and didn't want them harmed wouldn't it make even less sense seeing as a lot of the animals I love are carnivors themselves.
