For me it comes down to these two things:

1) Don't try to force you ways on me.

2) Don't look down on me because I don't go along with your ways.

You must be one disgusted dude though.

Be willing to bet the vast majority of people feel pretty much the same way I do.

Veal is still a pretty popular menu item.

Meat of all types still sells pretty well.

Fishing is still a pretty popular activity

Awful lot of people in  fur coats, Leather boots jackets and shoes roaming around to think anyone particularly cares how they got there.

And other then the PETA lunatics I dont see any particular vast outrage from the masses over animals being used in experiments.

Yea, pretty safe bet most people feel the same way.
I just have the grapes to say it



You dont get it, do you?  I deleted parts of your post to show the points i disagree with.  I am not some tree humping PETA extremist.  I eat meat, i wear leather shoes, jacked etc, used to go fishing with my dad.

THESE are the PARTS OF YOUR POST I DISAGREE WITH.  I have highlighted them in red to make it a little easier for you

So long as it is tender when it reaches my plate.

So long as the meat ends up on my plate.

I dont care if fishermen fish. I dont care what a worm or baitfish feels or what the fish being caught feels

I dont care how Minks or other animals are kept or treated to produce fur coats or leather jackets, shoes and boots.

Typically they are bred for that one reason and one reason alone. They are in essence a crop and should be treated as such

I dont care how many animals are used in medical experiments.

 


So basically, you are saying you couldnt give a damn how an animal is treated? couldnt give a damn if it is kept cruelly for years just so you get a meal on your plate?  couldnt give a damn how that animal is killed and if it suffered?

"PETA is dedicated to establishing and protecting the rights of all animals. PETA operates under the simple principle that animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, or use for entertainment. "

this is the reason I am against peta   Animals have no rights save those we give them for how ever long we give.    I think ethical people will respect any creature enough to dispatch it as humanely as possible and to not torture it needlessly.

branding or neutering or hobling or confining or using for research is not "needlessly".

If 10,000 animals have to suffer to find a cure for a disease one of my family members has then it is not "needless" suffering.

If a peta member throws a bucket of blood at me I will show them how much a creature can suffer.

There is a difference between swatting and killing a fly, or pulling the wings off of the same fly and slowly killing it with the sun's rays magnified thru a glass.

How you treat the animal makes a difference.

The same ones God gave all living creatures.
And he gave us reign over the animals that is true but there is no reason to be cruel.

yeah, but can you define what specific rights animals have? I wanna be an animal lawyer someday.

If a bear kills a human in the woods, do we prosecute the bear? I'm concerned.

If a bear kills a human in the woods... he just signed his own death certificate.

But... Pretend that God exists in every living creature. Your neighbour, that chatty ***** on the bus, your dog. It gets a little tough to make the big calls.
