I agree with you - I don't want to get bashed for *not* eating meat (and believe me, people like me get it all the time) - just like I don't want to be bashed for being a member of PETA.
I can never understand why some folks think that bashing, being confrontational, or downright nasty about choices is a means to an end. It isn't. It's just completely polarizing. |
Ok, dont take this as a bash!!Remember we love ya!!! I think its great that you are a vegitarian and that you dont force your right to be one on everybody else. Even I dont eat as much meat anymore. I just dont care for it as much as I did when I was younger plus now I cant taste or smell either. I have seen slaughter houses, seen animals get slaughtered also. I think everyone should have to see it. That will change alot of peoples minds about meat, at least for a while. I couldnt eat meat after seeing that either. But after a while, I went back to eating meat.
I just wonder why you/anyone would donate to peta? They have done some good things, but arent your donations also making it possible for peta to do all the stupid, fanatical things as well? The things that even you cant agree with? Wouldnt it be better to donate to a group that is NOT so fanatical, that gets the same things done as peta, but they only concentrate of the REAL issues like puppy mills, bull fighting, legitimate animal abuse? It just seems like any donation to peta is used to fuel the fanatical fire of petas warped agenda. I think that money could be better spent on a more normal, responsible group.
