Death threats follow local vegan’s Facebook post about Vegas shootings

By Bill O’Boyle - boboyle@timesleader.com | October 5th, 2017 3:39 pm

WILKES-BARRE — The Mother Nature Vegan Cuisine food truck is no more and its owner finds herself in the middle of a firestorm for insensitive comments about the people killed in the Las Vegas massacre.

Delinda Jensen, 60, has received death threats after posting this Facebook comment: “Yes I am jaded. Fifty nine meat eaters dead. How many animals will live because of this?”

She then made a comment under the post that said: “I don’t give a (expletive) about carnists anymore.”

Jensen, a former adjunct history professor at Marywood University, said Thursday she is living in fear since her post set off an intense backlash on social media earlier this week.

She is out of business and her bright green food truck is in a secret storage area.

“I (expletive) up,” Jensen said while sitting at her kitchen table with son and business partner, Kyle, 28. “Was it poorly written? Absolutely. Do I regret it? Yes. I am so sorry I wrote that.”

Many Facebook users shared Jensen’s post, which generated hundreds of hate-filled comments and threats and little defense of her stance.

Jensen emphatically insisted she was not happy about the death of 59 people.

“Meat eaters or not, no one deserves to die like that,” Jensen said. “I wasn’t celebrating the death of those people. That’s not how vegans think — we are non-violent.”

In trying to explain her motivation for writing the post, Jensen wanted to make the point that too many animals are tortured and killed every year — she estimated 2o billion-plus — and consumed by humans.

The facebook post reads like it was written by FR’s former vegan troll “JEC”.

I guarantee she has never set foot on a working farm and see the care that is provided to the animals prior to heading for market.

She’s “sharing a little peace” while pimping herself on the bodies of 59 innocent victims.

Shows just what a liberal fruitcake she truly is.

Quit lying, Delinda, you ignorant slut.

1 Timothy 4:3:

Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

Probably so. She comes off “morally superior” like those who want to rid the Earth of humans “so animals can live in peace”.

I’ll go ahead and say Obama / Hillary / Bernie supporter.

As if that wouldn’t be quite obvious.

It’s odd how all these groups that are so “peaceful” say (and do) the most hateful things.

“Do I regret it? Yes. I am so sorry I wrote that.””

Regret and sorrow only because she’s out of business and in hiding.

“At least she didn’t say “inartful”.”

Or, “taken out of context”.

Does this woman realize that many animals are themselves carnivores? Does she hate them too?

I’m a vegetarian and I can only chalk this weird vegan behavior up to...

I total lack of CHEESE.

Cheese keeps me sane, although I wouldn’t touch moose.

She’s only a typical Heini animal worshiper occupying our West.

This is how ALL leftists think. They want us DEAD.

She is only upset because she is unemployed and forgets that we “meat-eaters” can use social media in the exact same way they do.

Sucks to be you, honey. Broaden your horizons and step out of the liberal bubble.
