If you want to argue with an extremist, you had better go find one. Because, Long-goner, I am not one. I follow the law. And vandalism is not legal. You'll probably have trouble find an animal activist on SI- but keep trolling. Maybe you'll get lucky.

I don't have much sympathy for animal farmers, or tobacco farmers, or sugar cane farmers, or anyone raising a product that is bad for the American public. I am sure there are lots of family tobacco farmers out to make the BEST natural product- but you know what? Their product isn't good for people. You can bitch and moan all you want, but red meat just isn't good for you compared to other foods you could eat. Now does that mean we should do anything to prevent people from eating meat? I don't personally think so. But do I care at all about the people growing shit that isn't good for us? No. I don't care much about Hostess or Dolly Madison either. And if a Nestle factory blew up I'd say no big loss. You obviously care about something I consider a blight. Are we ever going to agree? No. Do I care? No. Should you try to go find an extremists to argue with so you can be happy? Probably.
