Animals eat other animals.
Animals kill other animals for things other than just food (protecting their turf, vying for a mate, etc.).
So, it PETA against the carnivorous animals as well, lol? Are their hearts bleeding for the Gazelle over the Lion?
I do think hunting for sport is absolutely disgusting and even hunting and killing things that you eat is borderline. For those that absolutely need to hunt for their food, which is not many people left in the world today other than 3rd world nations, very rural areas, areas above 60d North or below 60d south etc., I can see it. However, when you have options of going to the store for meat that was bred specifically for food, no reason to shoot a wild animal to get your blood thirst on.
Other than fish and other seafood, we breed about 95% of the animals specifically for food. These 'beings' would not exist if it weren't for them being bred to eat, so I do not see any issues with eating your standard beef, chicken, or pork. The conditions of said farms/factories and some of the treatment of the animals is another story. I do agree that needs to get better, but just the belief that you should not eat meat is absurd. If you think it is healthier for you, that is one thing, but to do it because you don't want to support the killing of animals, that it another. For all the Jesus freaks, we were designed by God (we evolved to) specifically to eat other meat as part of our diet. Hunters and gatherers, hunters and gatherers.....
