    Amazing how non-vegans who are 99% inconsistent when it comes to ethics will try to find the .01% inconsistency of a vegan and use it to irratonally justify their full-blown, intentional, violent actions. Example: “Those car tyres you’re using contain stearic acid, so I’m going to eat 4 steaks tonight, then shop for a new fur coat…What’s that? There’s no vegan tyres on the market? Well, then you should be walking 35 miles each way to work…I’ll wave as I drive by in my new SUV that gets 8 MPG.”

    I know, right? It’s awful.
    People love pointing out the faults of others, but when it comes to their own…
    A little less than willing to jump on the bandwagon.
    Not saying vegans are perfect by any means, but…
    It is quite irritating.

    Yes, it can be extremely frustrating. The best response is, “I’m attempting to decrease suffering significantly, but unfortunately, I can’t control extenuating factors (e.g. the composition of the road).” Additionally, if they’re religious or political, I find it useful to bring up inconsistencies with their beliefs as a parallel.

    Life summary : I love animals even more than people

  • jpatr1d

    I have always loved animals, no matter what shape,size, color, species they are. I started as a vegetarian a few years ago, but i only knew that i didn't want to eat animal. i stoped for a while when i lost my job and ate what i could. no excuse i know. but soon later to realized my mission in life and purpose. i am here to be the voice of those who do not speak human. i changed my outlook to this because i found a boxer mix dog laying under my porch. she had gotten hit by a car and was severely starved. everyone around me was like leave it alone, you don't know where it came from, but i didn't care i had to save her. i rushed her to the emergency vet clinic where they did immediate surgery on her. despite those peoples commentary i saved a dogs life and from that point on i knew that if people treated a dog that way i wonder how people treat non domestic animals. I researched and came across peta2 where i now am an animal activist and vegan. I continue to help and save animals that i find and plan on never changing my ways for any one.
