As a meat-eater I'd like to say the following:
People like Morrisey, the singer from "The Smiths" does the vegan cause no good with songs like "Meat Is Murder". I went to see him live a few years ago and the images projected on the large screen were extremely graphic. I'm just curious as the the public reaction if a pop artist plastered their gigs with anti-abortion propaganda.
( Which I can assure you is equally upsetting! )
I personally have no issue accepting that animals have equal capacity to suffer than Humans. It would appear that some vegans have difficulty accepting the other side of this ethical standpoint, which is that plants that end up consumed and the rest discarded and therefore die and trees killed for toilet-paper also suffer.
Without wanting to sound rude, I don't care to enter in to a scoring match as which life-forms we consume suffer more, suffering is suffering.
