The rise of the vegans.

I think it refers to killing humans Seth. I can understand people having the position somebody like Morrissey has. It is because he sees no difference to an animal which has emotions and feeling to a human. I don't view it in quite the same way. Although I love my dog as if he was a human! I think we are simply animals obeying natures laws- we are meat eaters as are dogs, lions, etc... But if you saw it his way, it would be natural to have strong emotions and reactions.seth plum said:I can't resist responding to the comment about Vegan hypocrisy above.
Millions upon millions of Christians eat meat and fish, yet one of their 10 Commandments is 'Thou shalt not kill'.
In terms of raw numbers it dwarves Vegan hypocrisy.

Waitrose have sacked him so vegans are now safe. I'm assuming a team of police are working on this as a vegan hate crime.i_b_b_o_r_g said:
Comparable to Morrissey saying that people who "believe" in abatoirs, must also believe in the Nazi gas chambers and that eating meat is no different to pedophilia. Okay Morrissey wasn't answerable to managers in the same was this bloke is, but still a despicable thing to saySuedeAdidas said:0 -

Like the multiple journalists who have, in the same 'jokey' manner suggested killing cyclists? None of them have been sacked or forced to resign...Arsenetatters said:
What a dick. Imagine the uproar if he'd said that about any other group....SuedeAdidas said:
It's a f***ing stupid thing to say, but I don't think he should be forced to quit over it
Have to agree and I’m one of those he’d be ‘advocating’ hunting. What he said didn’t offend me, I just shrugged, thought ‘what a tit’ and got on with my life.
I heard about his comments before he left his role. It came up on one of the pages on FB I follow.

Waitrose report: Animal welfare, environmental and health concerns driving change in UK diet.
“This year, we’ve seen vegan food go mainstream” said Natalie Mitchell, Waitrose’s head of brand development. “Whether cooking at home, buying prepared food or trying the newly vegan-friendly restaurants, people are discovering that it tastes amazing.”

I had a couple of meat eating friends round yesterday. One brought bread, the other brought some cheeses and I got some wine and some houmous. I also got some butter out and some ham that Mr Tatters had in the fridge. We all start eating and chatting and the vast majority of the time is spent by THEM bringing up the vegan subject. 'ooo so you eat butter' - no, 'you don't mind having ham on the table?' - etc etc etc. All I want to do is enjoy their company. It's non vegans that talk about vegan stuff. I just want to eat what I eat and not be quizzed about it. Then we get onto the xmas pub outing stuff. 'Ooooo we can't go to XXXX pub they don't do vegan stuff' - yes they do if you have jacket potato and beans, and that's fine, I had it in there last year and no one went on about it.
Yep, I can relate to that. It’s worst at work. I can’t just sit and eat my dinner in peace without at least one comment being made. Ffs I just want to eat my rice and beans and do a sudoku.1 -
The last time they knocked at my door I'd just come out of psychiatric hospital and was still a bit manic. I was delighted when someone knocked on my door so that I could tell them about my latest grandiose ideas in great detail. I announced I'd just got out of the nut house and they disappeared fast.seth plum said:I can't resist responding to the comment about Vegan hypocrisy above.

Er, because I now ‘eat and appreciate a lot of food stuff that I hadn’t considered or heard of before’. I was never a big meat eater before I first went vegetarian nor did I consume vast amounts of dairy before I went vegan. So I cut out a few things and replaced them with considerably more. It’s given me a whole new interest in cooking and experimenting in the kitchen.
