What a bunch of stupid pillocks. Using the personal illness - about which you know precisely nothing - of Federated Farmer President Charlie Pedersen to promote your naive cause as any good but blithely ill-informed and ideological zealot would.cause
 

Re: Animal rights activists preparing to protest meat conference

Congratulations. There are more of us out there than people believe who find the murder of animals disgusting just so people can eat meat. Any awareness of bringing people to think about what they are doing by eating flesh is a step forward.
And yet us vegetarians come up against people who get really angry when we say we dont eat meat. We get the usual but lettuces are alive spiel. I always take heart at that because the more violent they react the more I know they know they are doing wrong but just havent accepted it yet.
I have been lobbying Woolworths about their awful beef farming advert on TV where he says they have a good life before they get sent off. It is this attitude we have to get rid off and realise no living creature deserves to go what those animals go through.

Has anyone noticed that the comments by meat eaters are not very easy to understand? Guess that is what happens when you have meat rotting in your stomach for up to a week. Dulls the brain as well.

Re: Animal rights activists preparing to protest meat conference

I've been a vegetarian for 4 years now and meat is just never an option to me. I hate people who are so shocked when I say I don't eat meat and they say "what do you eat then" ummm HELLO there is a hell of a lot of food out there that doesnt involve an animal part. I feel great about myself and I'm a huge animal lover! So vegetarian is definitely the way to go!
