manicholic 3,694 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 More from London: https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/thousands-of-vegans-stage-animal-rights-march-in-central-london-a3625626.html Spoiler “If slaughterhouses had glass walls, we’d all be vegetarian.” -Paul McCartney "Three times a day, I remind myself that I value life and do not want to cause pain to or kill other living beings. That is why I eat the way I do.” -Natalie Portman “When people ask me why I don’t eat meat or any other animal products, I say, ‘Because they are unhealthy and they are the product of a violent and inhumane industry.” -Cassey Afleck “Behind every beautiful fur coat, there is a story. It is a bloody, barbaric story.” -Mary Tyler Moore “My body will not be a tomb for other creatures.” -Leonardo Da Vinci “I’m a vegan. I respect the environment and I do my best to spread the importance of such an issue.” -Jared Leto “I personally chose to go vegan because I educated myself on factory farming and cruelty to animals, and I suddenly realized that what was on my plate were living things, with feelings. And I just couldn’t disconnect myself from it any longer.” -Ellen DeGeneres “We all love animals. Why do we call some ‘pets’ and others ‘dinner?’” -K.D. Lang “I love animals. All animals. I wouldn’t hurt a cat or a dog — or a chicken, or a cow. And I wouldn’t ask someone else to hurt them for me. That’s why I’m a vegetarian.” -Peter Dinklage “The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than blacks were made for whites, or women for men.” -Alice Walker “Animals are my friends. And I don’t eat my friends.” George Bernard Shaw “Vegan food is soul food in its truest form. Soul food means to feed the soul. And to me, your soul is your intent. If your intent is pure, you are pure.” -Erykah Badu “I’m a vegan. It makes me feel really good and bright.” -Lea Michelle There's nothing harder for people to do than admit they were fooled.

2007 5,291 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Yeah...never. So pointless, I don't get what they're trying to achieve since we all know nobody will turning vegan because of their protest. I see a few who're actually there to bring awareness on how they treat animals in factories, while the rest are trying to push their agenda and force their lifestyle on others by villainizing the carnivores.

JustaMonster 4,909 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Yeah it sucks that animals are being killed and mistreated and I'm all for humaine treatment and stuff... but I don't think I can give up meat. It would be cool though if they could make the lab grown meat as good as real meat and make it cheap. I'd be all for that. Hands up to the sky, I'm about to fly!

Plus I don't agree with most vegan philosophies anyway. (Most vegans would not like my very pro-zoo stance for instance). Do you feel him sir?

Checkout http://www.happycow.net to find vegan/vegetarian-friendly restaurants around you & fast food options at: https://www.peta.org/living/food/chain-restaurants/ Not really sure what 'vegan philosophies' are (other than being anti-cruelty) since it's not some club you join, but I'd just remind that liking zoos (as an example) doesn't mean you just give up on making kinder choices on your plate or elsewhere There's nothing harder for people to do than admit they were fooled.

My city has a lot of vegans because of a high immigrant population from parts of India that does not eat meat and even then many options seem limited to me in some areas for vegans tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
