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 dont 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 Jensens 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 wasnt celebrating the death of those people. Thats 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.

Wonder how she feeeeeels about abortion? Enquiring minds want to know.
Horse Sh*t! The only reason she regrets it and is sorry is because she was too stupid to realize how far out of the societal mainstream she is and the consequences her actions reaped.
Well, thats a darn shame. In sympathy, Im going to take a stand in sanctimonious solidarity and triple my bacon intake. Fruitless, as it were ... nothing can match the delirious deliciousness of liberal delusion.
Moose is great, it tastes just like Buffalo.
And such scum as she is consider themselves to be morally superior.....
