Well, since you enjoying being juvenile and name-calling like a first grader, I will explain it to you as such, and then I am done with this topic.
See, 'watson', I don't like to think that something actually has the chance to run away after it has been struck to die.
In slaughter houses (that's where they kill the animals for your num nums), it is done as quickly and humanely as possible (but it is still quite sad).
You asked me if I am a vegetarian, and yes, for the most part I am.
Beef hurts my tummy and I cannot thoroughly digest it.
Pork doesn't taste good.
When chicken is cooked the way I like it, I will pick at it.
I went on a full-vegetarian run last year and I had to go to the hospital and see my doctor after about a month. I HAVE to eat meat about once or twice a month so I don't like... die or anything.
And yes, the world IS a cruel place, but that is why I have to try and help what I can. I believe everything deserves to have as great of a life as I have. It's not fair that I get to be happy and have things that I want and not necessarily need.
Just because I don't want things to die doesn't make me a freak. Oh, excuse me, a 'hippie' as you call me. Well, I've got a couple of names for you too, darling, but I will be the mature one and step down.
