tree hugger is just a term used for people who like em sj,
what i'm getting at is many vegans believe that plants also have feelings.
why cut a tree down for firewood etc.
why eat a carrot or tomato.
for me (as one who loves living things) i think i'm like the vegan who eats a carrot. i know it's alive but i want it dead so i can eat it. i'd like it to be killed with as little pain as possible but i want it dead.
i have a vegetarian friend, (the sort that doesn't mind eating fish) she used laugh when placing a lobster into a pan of boiling water and it screamed. she was a bit miffed when i said it wasn't actually screaming. which is my point those who eat fish etc and say eating meat is wrong, spear them catch em with barbed hooks let them choke to death, flip flopping everywhere without batting an eyelid.
to me i'm no worse than they are.
