Where do you come up with these talking points!?

Chickens exist in the hundreds of millions strictly for food purposes, lions do not.

Chickens can reproduce many times a year in great numbers, lions do not. (Please save yourself the embarrassment of saying that chickens live an even shorter life.)

The lifetime of the lion is wrought with injury and death on a daily basis, as well as its offspring, when the dominant male is killed or run off.

The position that you can equate these two simply because they are animals is so far removed from the animal behavior, nature, and purpose to be simply foolish.

One Freeper made this submission some time ago, that applies to your position: since 5 is a number and 6 is a number, 5=6. Are you a common core graduate?

If Fido could say, “Hey pal, what’s with the Alpo every day?! Would it break your leg to bring me home a friggin’ raw Porterhouse a couple times a week??? HUH???”

He would certainly NOT be your best friend much longer ;)

I wish I had a dime for every time I’ve thought something like that. Kudos to the author for putting it so succinctly.

Different strokes, and all that sort of jazz...personally, I thought the author sounds like he’s sitting on what passes for his brains...

God created the animals to be food for man.

I’m sure that would come as a shock to the thousands of early hominids routinely serving as main courses to saber toothed cats and dire wolves...
