The point here is that animal rights advocates tried to rescue the 4-H animals *before* they went to auction, and they were denied. I’m sure the 4-H children would have chosen to have their animals go to a sanctuary rather than the slaughterhouse, but they were not given that option now, were they?

Okay, YOU are the ones “dragging” children into this argument by signing them up for a program that ends with the killing of the animals that they tended to. I don’t know what you’re even talking about– I’ve not brought up children to this point, and if the 4-H kids are reading this, then that’s up to the parents who are allowing that. The only thing the animal rights advocates were trying to do was to buy the animals before they were auctioned off. I’ve not heard *anything* about taking “legal action” as you say…. am I missing something??
It really isn’t rocket science to just do the math when it comes to animal agriculture and how it aggravates world hunger– we feed perfectly good food to non-human animals that we breed into existence to fatten them up for human consumption, instead of just giving the food to starving people. It doesn’t matter that the source is biased on that particular article because it’s really just common sense…. but I will research a less biased source to settle that issue for you, kay? :)
Again, I fight against factory farms as well. I fight against puppy mills, and a plethora of other issues that concern me. I have a number of causes that I tend to, so your assumptions of me and others is incorrect and narrow. It’s like saying, “why are you fighting for starving children when the environment is in peril?”. I have time for both, thanks.
Propaganda?? Is the UN report propaganda from animal rights advocates?? Is the article from “nursing degree” from animal rights advocates? I don’t think so. Here’s what the American Dietetic Association has to say about vegan diets and cholesterol:
“Vegetarians have been reported to have lower body mass indices than non-vegetarians, as well as lower rates of death from ischemic heart disease, lower blood cholesterol levels, lower blood pressure, and lower rates of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and prostate and colon cancer.”
Is the ADA a group of vegan animal rights advocates too?
You asked for “good reasons” to go vegan. I provided many based on that request.
You don’t want to answer my question about whether or not it’s wrong to inflict avoidable harm, because you KNOW that the answer is YES.
