What do you think about people who eat meat?

Stop Animal Cruelty
Deandra69: i'm curious to know what people think about meat, I’ve met some people who are true vegetarians and believe meats bad because it's cruel to animals. Coming from a true meat eater i guess my question is, is it because of the cruel treatment of some animals in the slaughter houses that make some people think eating meat is wrong? Cause i can relate to that. Or is it just that they think it's wrong? I've seen some people who just eat beans and vegi's and they look all thin and nasty, and pale not healthy, i just think ya gotta have a little meat, i mean damn ribs are good....but what do you all think, i'm interested to know.....

Blissxo: I eat meat..and i dont think i could go without it..but i still support stopping animal cruelty, that all animals are treated humanely, whether they are used for consumer purposes or not.

I guess there is many different reasons as to why people choose not to eat meat, i have a friend that cant stand the taste of red meat..

But people might choose not to due the beliefs against animal cruelty, and i reckon its great that they stand up for what they beleive in, because there are alot of slaughter houses and chicken farms etc out there that do not ensure humane treatment of their animals, usually to save money..

Its also very hard to know if the meat you're buying is from a company that ensures humane treatment of animals..

and then sometimes people just don't eat meat because they don't beleive in killing and eating fellow creatures of this earth..

So i guess its just a personal choice really of whether or not you choose to eat meat or not..but theres one point that everyone in this club could agree on is that animals should be treated humanely..even those that are destined to be eaten..and i value that all animals shouldn't have to suffer in their last moments of life..

Mark: Rape?

Before you became a vegetarian, you forced s@z on the food you ate?

You want people to open their minds to your point of view, when you use silly terms like that to describe farming practices?

I'm a lot more likely to listen to someone that wants to share a steak dinner with me, than one that says "hey, let's compare urine".

You're not helping your cause.

Innocentmind: I have never even tasted meat or egg or any non-veg food ever in my life ....and i am fit and healthy [see my pic] and not at all thin and nasty.

I don't wear leather...fur...or silk

I believe that animals are also living things like us...they have feelings like us...they are frightened when slaughtered....a cow licks her calf so lovingly when it is born...they are like us...only can't express how they feel in our language...

a honey bee wanders far and wide over more than 500 flowers to collect one drop of honey for the nursery of larvae in the bee-hive...

silk-worms are boiled live to get the thread of silk from their cacoon...

Sad part is that lot of non-veg food is wasted by humans...that is unforgivable...

Wild animals kill only when they are hungry...

each and every tiny creature on this earth has a role to play in the food-chain...

elisedus: No people are worth it to kill an animal for.
In my opinion no one.
I dont eat meat, and i dont miss it.
Why eat an animal of you can live a good life without it.
I reither eat people meat then animal meat, but i think it will be
discusting.
People are not superior to animals, infact, they are much more
stupid then animals.
I dont eat meat, i look and feel great!
Respect to all veggies!

_Awhinanastyle_: I used to be a big meat eater. Then in March this year I went completely off it when served duck in a restaurant. NOT good.
Personally, I don't think you should judge anyone that does eat meat. Its what they want to eat so thats fine. BEATING up an animal on the other hand ISN'T. People deserve to be looked away for that kind of thing.

Zoehara: I am a vegan. No animal products whatsoever for me.
On an evolutionary scale we had to eat meat to get the energy our brains needed to develop. We would be nowhere if that hadn't happened. Now there are plenty of products to replace meat. I can buy everything my body needs to function properly so that's what I choose to do. I am curvy and not sickly skinny like some vego's are (but I think that may be because of other substances they shouldn't legally be taking). If it wasn't healthy, I wouldn't do it.
I don't need animals to die for my taste buds but I have also witnessed animal cruelty which replays in my mind whenever I see a steak.
I don't preach to any of my friends or family so I won't preach to you. You have your own mind and your own path to follow. Good luck.

damagecontrol: Although I am not a vegetarian , I could never eat anything I had met prior, nor could I kill anything unless it was to save my family. However, the animals that are consumed by humans should be treated with respect, you are what you eat, if the animal is treated disrespectfully then you consume that energy when you eat that animal. If another creature gave its life so you and yours could survive , does it not deserve your respect?

ScaniaR620: Hello

I think eating meat is not bad because our body needs it.

BUT !!!! I really dont understand people who eat horses, dogs, cats. These animals love us and give us love of life. They trust on us to give them a good life. Moreover, Horses and dogs work with and for us.
I think it's cruel to kill them for eating. We betray them

It's sad to do this They beleive on us, don't forget

AND, I don't agree with farmers who maltreat cows, pigs, ... It is a serious problem too. We will eat them but farmers don't have to raise them brutally

Bye

P.S.: Excuse for my English, some words in French are not very easy to translate in English

jasontinnian: I eat Meat. Homosapians are omnivors. Meaning we have to eat animal proteins and proteins from plants also.we cannot be healthy without both of them. Our brains only have the capacity that they have because of our consumption of animal protein. Sure the act of killing an animal is violent. and frankly I don't care to see it. It's not eating animal matter that bothers me. what bothers me is when people are cruel about how they slaughter them. We have to eat meat to be healthy. We have to cook our meat to process it through out bodies we could eat it raw but it would be difficult to digest it. I have a ham in the oven right now....

temper616: ok, alot of pple know me as a goofie funny comidy guy, or something like that, some pple think that i cannot be seriouse, so i am saying right now i am very seriouse when it comes to animal cruelty, look everyone, WE as HUMANS ARE ANIMALS, we breath, we eat, we are animals, now, i eat meat, actually, i dont rilly like vegitables, i eat mostly meat and candy, but, look, everyone that thinks that just cause they dont eat meat, and there friends and there friends friends, they will stop killing so manny animals for us as ANIMALS to consume, stop, ok, if half of america stops eating meat, they will not even slow down on surving meat in stores cause u cannot slow down the killing of animals, that is the way it is, i look at it like this, the animal is alredy dead, lets not let it have died for it to go to waste, ok, i do not have a problem with pple that do not eat meat, matter of fact, my ex does not eat meat, but, i am saying, if u chose to not eat meat cause u think it will save an animal from death for a little longer, well, u are sadly mistaken, now, on another argument of my side is, most pple that say that the do not eat anything that has been alive at one time, or that breathed at one time, u eat plants right???
well, they were once alive, they were once breathing, and when i say breathing, i mean takeing in the carbon that we exhail and turning it back in to oxigen, then we turn that back to carbon, it is a cycle of breathing, and even so, i have another argument for my side, i think it is funny how most pple that do not eat meat are the ones that are more worried abought the environment, and about saveing the world from "globle warming", well as i said, i eat meat, and alot of it, i am eating the problem of globle warming, u are eating the solution, plants are what was keeping the world from going through it so soon, and when pple started eating plants like we do, it is causeing globle warming to happen faster, if u believe in it, now, us as animals, and every other animal in the world cause globle warming, main one of all, can u guess???,,, if u said humans, u are wrong, if u said cow, u have just won the grand prize, see cows have 4 stomichs and that means that they produce a lot of carbon, the same carbon that the plants need to breath, and with the plant population falling like it is, there are not enought plants to turn all that carbon into oxigen, so think abought it, to save the world from globle warming, should we eat the plants that are trying to save us??? or should we eat the animal that is un intentionaly trying to kill us??? idk abought yall, but i think i will have a tripple chease burger with no lett. or tomatos. maby a little onion, please and thanx. do not get me twizted with someone trying to get pple to eat meat, cause some pple have very good reasons behind not eating it, and i respect that, i am just simply staiting my side of the argument, now, bring on the hate comments, i dont cair, i know i am going to get some, so bring them on... STOP ANIMAL CRUELTY NOW, BUT KEEP THE MEAT COMEING, just do it humainly please, no need to make the animal want to die before u kill it, and no need to kill an animal with no reason behind it, if it is not used for food, then dont kill it, thank u for ur time,
