Every predator kills in the most "cowardly" way they can think of. But of course it's not cowardly at all--it's the inexorable law of nature. All of human animal husbandry is simply the evolutionary pinnacle of this natural law.

Very silly argument if I may
A lion sniffs the buttocks of another lion to know him better, please do the same when you meet a fellow human being

 

[Antonio Coceri]

Why do you hate nonsentient animals?

I do not hate

Why does it have to be a lion? Why not an osprey, or a snake, or a spider? Why not an orca or an alligator or a utahraptor?

But we all hunt our prey according to the same principle. Going after the weakest prey in the herd. Striking from ambush. Using poison. Exploiting every biological advantage in size, speed, strength, intellect. It's all the same principle: Least risk for greatest reward. This is not cowardly, this is natural.

Are you a vegetarian?

Then why is it OK to kill nonsentient animals?

He is gone. No need to continue, he can't answer.

Does she also avoid vegetables that are factory farmed?

When possible she buys from farmers markets, but she doesn't go crazy over it. No intention of becoming a breatharian

 

[Skeptical Greg]

Farmers markets or not, I was just thinking that the factory farming of animals that she is concerned about, is probably a source of fertilizer for vegetables that are similarly factory farmed.

He is gone. No need to continue, he can't answer.

And so, it ends like it always does, we must silence our opponents. We must answer for him or travel up the killing chute ourselves, to face the stunning bolt and the knives.

Shakespeare? or Louis L Amour? I always get those two confused.

Probably used for "Organic" veggies too.

I imagined it in the voice of Werner Herzog.

Judge Dredd.

Indeed.. What is more organic than manure?

Agreed, ... Manure, it really does do a plant good.

Of course I could delve into proper manure handling to prevent pathogen transfer....but it would completely miss the point.

 

[John Jones]

Does she also avoid vegetables that are factory farmed?

Exactly. What did that carrot, celery stalk or tomato do to deserve you chewing and digesting them?

You inhumane monsters!

 

[Roboramma]

Vegans and vegetarians also always act as if plants don't have feelings too.

Probably because they don't...

 

[Roboramma]

Then why is it OK to kill nonsentient animals?

Because it doesn't cause any suffering.

 

[Ziggurat]

Because it doesn't cause any suffering.

Your answer assumes some kind of coherent or even relevant definition of sentience on his part. That isn't a safe assumption.

That's a good point.
