cleo, I don't come from a place were "chinless wonders" can prance around and shoot animals, but they do have an offical school holiday in the rural areas on the first day of deer hunting season since they know most of the boys will be out with their dads trying…

cleo,

For people who get their jollies out of killing furry/feathery creatures in a party with their friends, en masse, killing more than they could possibly eat in a month of Sundays? You bet.

You aren't by any chance labouring under the delusion that the 'domesticated farm animals' that provide your meat all live idyllic, bucolic lives in beautiful green pastures, are you?

Why so? We already grow the veggies, which we then feed to cows, pigs, sheep, chickens and the like. Why would the rabbits and their pals suddenly decide they won't steal the veggies from cows, but they will from humans?

amount of feed and water to produce 1kg of meat is truly ridiculous

sf2k did you ever stop to think about the amount of water and other chemicals it takes to grow an acre of corn or some other vegetable. Don't get me wrong I am an ominvore and eat…

The biggest joke is that even this small step is fatally flawed, as it leaves only the most crime-prone people outside the gates and unsupervised Not that they commit anywhere near the crimes the Japanese do. I think this is really an attempt by the US brass to make things…

that's pretty funny considering japan is one of the most protectionist countries on the planet
