I know that it is not whether meat is good for you or not. I know that the issue is the right to choose. I for one have always believed in small government. My objection is to the constant attacks, the ridiculing of vegetarians and environmentalists on this forum. I believe that the point of gov't minding its business can be made without all of this ridiculing. In fact, I believe that it would be more constructive. We have so many more truly important things that we agree upon like Cuba. I don't think that its healthy to drive in all of these wedges. On a sidebar, I always felt that we could work with environmentalists. Cuba more than any country has had its environment damaged by the tyranny. Reinaldo Arenas proved that Cuban Americans could work with the traditional left in order to fight the tyranny. When he appeared in "Improper Conduct" and denounced the UMAP Concentration Camps, and when he wrote "Before Night Falls" the gays and lesbians who in the United States have always been traditionally of the left listened to us and many sided with us. It would be wonderful if we could follow in Arenas footsteps and form coalitions with environmental groups instead of attacking them. I know what the issue is.

The silent acquiesence with these fascistic/communist measures -- that vegans and vegetarians and non-smokers agree with for "altruistic" and "compassionate" reasons -- is why we are on this slippery slope.

What's at stake here is that right to choose. Does anyone deny that there is a movement from the radical left that wants to dictate their version of healthy living on everyone else? And for the record, there are vegetarians dropping dead from heart attacks, and meat eaters living to 100. I don't think the issue is whether or not you choose to eat meat.

What's more, our intestines are long like those of herbivores not short like those of a cat or a dog. Eat your artery clogging meat all that you want.

I don't eat meat. It's unhealthy, and cruel to eat meat, especially if the meat is taken from a factory farmed animal where many animals are kept in small, unsanitary cages their entire miserable lives and are injected with an assortment of cancer causing growth hormones and antibiotics. And I don't know what the little aside about "cats" is. I've kept both cats and dogs as pets and I've fed them meat. I know that they're meat eaters and I wouldn't subject them to an unnatural life that would kill them, especially cats that are 100% carnivorous. That much said, you guys should really stop connecting so many dots. Not everyone who's a vegetarian or environmentalist is a leftist. Life isn't that simple. What is it with these constant attacks on environmentalists and vegetarians? Look at fidel castro: he's hardly an environmentalist. That piece of shit has destroyed Cuba's fauna and flora, he's polluted Cuba's waterways and allowed unscrupulous Canadians to strip mine Cuban land. If Cuba is ever free one day, we're seriously going to have to become environmentalists if we love the land of our birth in order to fix the disasters of the castro regime. What's more, aside from helping the people, we're going to have to start animal protection societies as I understand that its heart breaking to see all of the homeless starving dogs wandering the streets.

When you meet a vegetarian who owns cats--ASK HIM (probably HER) WHAT SHE FEEDS Little Whiskers!!! If she feeds him cat food..well, she's putting hits on Wild Horses (couldn't drag me away) fish, chickens, etc. etc. (murdered, butchered, ground-up and rendered into cat food). If not--if she's trying to feed it vegetation-- then she could be jailed by animal protection agencies for torturing and starving her pet! (cats are strictly carnivorous and will DIE on such a diet) I pulled that on the show Politically Incorrect with PETA board member Bill Maher--then he broke for a commercial. Unreal. George!
