Sarcastic Email?

I can’t decide if this is sarcastic or not. Hmmmmm………. what do you think?

Haha, you are really funny, do you know that? Because, like, you’re making fun of vegetarians by saying that the vegetables have feelings and stuff. Because that’s exactly the same as killing animals, because vegetables can feel pain just like animals can! Continue doing what you guys are doing, because you are really making the world a better place!

Random emails from people are always entertaining. Keep up the good work all you veggie haters! The VRMM will persist and overcome your heathenistic, murderous ways!!

Vegans Can’t Handle Tough Questions

On a return visit to the vegetarin forums where I found people happy that a deer hunter died, it turned out I had been banned from the site. Why?

I made a total of two posts there, the first being an introduction, which I believed was cordial. The second was a response to the thread about the deceased deer hunter. I asked, cordially, for a rational explanation of how a dead human is cause for joy when a dead animal is cause for outrage.

I made no mention of the fact that deer are herbivores, constantly “murdering” and consuming a more innocent form of life than themselves, in light of justications that the “deer murderer” would no longer be able to “murder” additional deer. I don’t believe I was overly aggressive, spammy, or otherwise offensive.

All I can conclude is that my mere presence was offensive. Aren’t Vegans are like “The Borg”, after all, believing everyone should live the way they choose to without regard to free will?

Animal Rights Activists Rejoice Over Hunter’s Death

Unbelievably, yet somehow believably, a number of posters at the Animal Rights Community Online forum have openly expressed “joy” and “happiness” that a deer hunter from Iowa was found dead.

- Justice served!

- I’m reminded of that delightful refrain from the “Ren and Stimpy Show”: “Happy! Happy! - Joy! Joy!”

- If he was my father or brother I’d be even more happy because it would be personal

Can someone explain how the life of a human animal, even being a hunter, is any less valuable (much less worthy of disdain) than a deer, or any of the various predators like mountain lions that also hunt deer? How do these animal rights activists completely ignore the fact that humans are also animals, therefore supposedly also worthy of their protection, admiration, and activism?

We meatarians feel sorrow for the man who lost his life hunting, and our thoughts and prayers are with his family left behind.

Calling Out Animal Rights Activists

It’s about time we had some serious discussion with those who would protect animals from cruelty while simultaneously being cruel fruits and vegetables. Are you an animal rights activist? Vegetarian? Vegan? We want to hear your justification for what we perceive to be blatant hypocrisy.

How can you claim to fight for the rights of animals while stomping on the rights of plants?

How can you claim a higher moral ground because you do not eat meat when you eat plants?

Why do animals matter more than plants?

Why is it more cruel to butcher a cow than to harvest and process corn?

The bottom line is that you cannot defend animals without also defending plants. There will always be controversy over animal cruelty for this very reason, though not for the reasons you would have us all believe. Plants are more helpless than animals, most being immobile. Plants are preyed upon in greater numbers and are treated far more brutally than any animal, having little or no means to defend themselves.

Even though you have no rational argument to make (any and all attempts will be summarily exposed), we invite you to make them. Open your bleeding hearts. Free your befuddled minds. Divulge the passionate rants of your fiery spirits. Do so, but beware - beware the greater cause for it may ensnare you and you may evolve into a higher form of cruelty fighter. The Vegetable Rights Militant Movement will eagerly accept your petition for membership.

The Gallery Has Returned

In our effort to raise public awareness of crimes against all plant life, we at VegetableCruelty.com have created a gallery of atrocities showcasing common brutalities occurring daily all over the world.

Help us fight cruelty to vegetables by spreading links to these horrible pictures. If even one person vomits due to what he or she sees in the gallery, and vows to never harm another plant spirit as long as they live, then the effort will not have been in vain.

Oil is Kinder than Ethanol

Is it morally justifiable to increase murderings and torturings of corn and sugarcane in order to lower energy costs for humans to drive around on roads that suffocate would-be seedlings from sprouting? NO, IT IS MORALLY REPREHENSIBLE!!!

The latest craze in the search for alternative fuels is ethanol. Brazil recently announced independece from Middle Eastern oil thanks in part to their production of ethanol (by fermenting poor, innocent sugarcane). Whoopty-do, Brazil. Your country just traded your everlasting souls for a domesticated renewable energy source. Nevermind that you cause insufferable harm to millions of plants EACH AND EVERY YEAR to do it. Killers.

There is also talk in the United States of moving toward higher ethanol production based on corn fermentation. I am sad to say that this sort of governmentally sanctioned cruelty towards corn will probably be commonplace and highly exaggerated within five years.

What kind of a world do we live in? No fruit, vegetable, or legume is safe.

Ethanol is cruel - read more here.

Vegetable Rights and Illegal Immigration

There has been much controversy lately as the illegal immigration situation in the U.S. has taken front and center. We think this issue is simple, but not for the same reasons as most silly Americans. The problem with illegal immigration is that many of the jobs are vicious in nature toward fruits and vegetables.

lettuce harvestThousands upon thousands of illegal immigrants go to work in fruit and vegetable prison camps (farms for insensitive ignoramuses), thereby supporting the criminally cruel activities of the age-old slaughter most people know as the harvest. We don’t blame the immigrants themselves for doing this work, because they are simply filling a need created by the evil appetite for ill-gotten plant stuffs. So why don’t we let all the illegals become legal? It will drive up the cost of fruits and vegetables, which will in turn slow consumption. And we feel that any reduction in the consumption of fruits and vegetables is a victory for our cause because fewer individuals were slaughtered for consumption.

Legalize them! Help save a veggie!

The Killing Fields

killer tractorIowa - How long has American corn been subjugated to death row? It’s safe to say that corn on the American continent has fallen prey to human brutality since the early inhabitants began imprisoning maize.

In 2002, almost 10 billion bushels of corn were grown on farms in the USA. Do you know how many innocent ears were slaughtered as a result?

A lot.

Sure, you may be saying to yourself “so what” (you callous pig), but stop for a moment and think about just one of those ears of corn. Put yourself on it’s stalk, so to speak, and imagine what it would be like to be ripped from your home, stripped, maybe shaved, even creamed, and ultimately eaten.

Yes, tragedy happens every day in rural America. More killing takes place on the Great Plains than all of the metro areas combined. Billions are tortured and killed every year. If you love freedom and mercy please, PLEASE stop eating vegetables.
