Why is it any worse than eating any other animal?

@"Vegan for life" so this is to go unnopposed in your world and left to become "normal" like all other dead animals for sale. Needs nipping in the bud now before it becomes another acceptable commodity of death.

This is of course a strategic/tactical question for animal rights activists but shouldn't simply put down those among you who feel maybe something dishonest.

"Vegan for Life" --- although not of your camp I will try to explain the "politics" and make sense of that response you drew. The problem from the acitvist point of view is that while morally there is no difference between eating a croc and eating a cow the number of people who do the former are few and the number of people who do the latter are numerous.

In other words, maybe can have success attacking a store selling furs (only the rich buy those) but if you went after the wearing of lether shoes ......... The point here is that maybe you can succeed throwing a bucket of paoint on some posh lady wearing furs and survive but of you tried that on a crowd of workers because of their shoes you'd need false chompers to chew your brown rice.

The current state of the campaigns where minor successes are wanted and not just symbolic protests has to be limited to "soft targets". Take on a hard target and you'd get your a*se kicked.

So you are right on the ethical question but it may be impolitic to raise it. You deserved a better response (explanation) form your own camp than a put down.

The info's out there now, regardless of the stupid comments from the laughable troll nation. Job done!

These types of posts aren't specifically designed to spark debate, they serve to directly inform the active animal rights community of abusers in specific locations so action can be taken, and thanks to the imc newswire and the publicity generated in the majority of cases action is taken.

There's loads of AR forums around @vegan for life where you can debate stuff till the end of days,maybe check them out.

Cheers
