Have you all "rescued" an animal recently? I just purchased 1/2 a beef yesterday. Guess that puts us on the hit list.

A vegetarian is someone who won't eat meat for ethical reasons. Then there are vegans. They not only think it is wrong to eat animals, they refuse to eat animal products, such as milk and eggs. Even though such foods do not involve killing animals, they do come from keeping cattle and chickens in captivity and exploiting them for human use. Then there are the fruitarians, who consider even vegans insufficiently moral. Vegans still eat plants, and plants are just as alive as animals. Fruitarians believe that the only ethical thing to eat is fruit, since the plants that produce fruit are not destroyed.

I won't be satisfied until they refuse to eat at all.

...mid-size college towns like Boulder, Colo., and Berkeley, Calif., ...

That pretty much says it all!

Why is it that all the freaks of the world get a forum in the press?

"Pet guardians", eh?

When the day comes that your pet has rights to your home and wealth, I will become a pet assassin.
