It’ll be my right foot, all mangled and bloody after I repeatedly break it off in their asses.
Should hunters — or anyone who enjoys a steak or a hamburger — have to pay extra for that little indulgence?
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals thinks so. One of the nation’s largest anti-hunting organizations, the group has kicked off a “Tax Meat” Campaign, proposing a 10-cent-per-pound excise tax on meat. Animal activists have also asked federal lawmakers to give tax breaks to those who have sworn off the consumption of animals.
PETA founder Ingrid Newkirk sent letters to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid urging them to extend to vegetarians the same tax breaks that hybrid car owners receive for purchasing vehicles with low carbon emissions.
Newkirk claims vegetarians are responsible for fewer greenhouse-gas emissions and “environmental degradations” than meat-eaters.
And Ingrid Newkirk is a fucking idiot. Sure, they’re not eating flatulating cows, but they supply a bountiful harvest of CO2 from both their holes due to their diet and their mindset.
Why doesn’t that cult just do what other cults do, and commit mass suicide?
I was feeling a little lazy and wasn’t going to go to the gym after work today, but now that my blood pressure has about doubled I should be good to go. I don’t know whether to thank you, or punch someone who looks like a vegenazi.
I don’t know why these tofu eating knobslobberers think that there should be a tax on meat- but I guess it’s kind of a way of buying indulgences from the high priests of the gold-gilted church of holy governance. In Gov We Trust!
I think the wacko vegans have it all wrong.
Take a good venison steak for example. Deer exist entirely on a vegetable diet. They grow from tiny little deer to great big deer eating sprouts from the forest floor that even a die-hard vegan wouldn’t consume with even the finest balsamic-hemp vinegrette. So in essence, when you sit down and eat a good venison steak, or snack on some tasty deer jerky, you are eating those vegetables. Deer are vegetables.
Further, it is the vegans’ fault for not embracing nature, and finding an economically feasable method for capturing all of the valuable methane gas exuded in vast quantities from these vegetables to power their deathtrap subcompact cars.
So how one could view one of these hydrocarbon-producing vegetables as untouchable makes no sense to me at all.
