This thread is high-larious cause it keeps getting bumped and there it is on the front page of PB: "Bloosum supports killing of innocent animals"

Too rich. Maybe we could start a thread "Rodo approves of polluting Philly air"

Also, the out of control birth rates in most 3rd world countries doesn't help, but the only thing that seems to slow that down in practice is getting up to a 1st world standard of living.

Also, you've been trolled.

I've been trolled? How so?

People starve for a lot of reasons, and one is that much of the resources are used to raise animal protein. Distribution of wealth is certainly a contributing factor, as are the high birth rates. But to claim that an omnivore becoming vegan "isn't going to have any effect" is kidding yourself.

Because this entire thread was created to generate a long, pointless argument with bloosum and anyone else who would respond to the inflammatory post title/content. It definitely worked.

No...actually it was to point out the fact that vegans contribute to animal deaths. And to highlight the hypocrisy of the one on this board who condemns, insults, and accuses those who don't follow her radical ideas of not caring about animals by proving that she, herself, is not doing all she can to prevent the needless death of animals for the benefit of her own food consumption. And further to show that not eating animals doesn't mean animals don't die for the production of your food.

It's very impressive that you know the unexpressed thoughts and goals of someone other than yourself, just through an internet bulletin board. Do you work for the Philly Zoo?
