"the meat-eating position is indefensible"
People like it. It isn't illegal. :o)
Okay, so I'm being facetious. I enjoy eating meat, but I respect your opinion and like most meat eaters would probably baulk at having to slaughter the animals for consumption myself.
That said, before many of the proclaimed anti-meat protesters berate us meat-eaters, they should first do the following:
Check their wardrobe for leather belts and shoes and discard or at least don't buy any non-vegan ones in the future.
Ensure their bike or car tyres aren't manufactured with the animal-based stearic acid,
Stop using off-the-shelf fabric softener as they invariably all contain Dihydrogenated tallow dimethyl ammonium chloride, which comes from the cattle, sheep and horse industry.
Stop using shampoo and conditioner as PETA, reckon they might be made with as many as 20 or more components that come from animals
Stop using toothpaste unless you're sure that the Glycerin being used is plant based
Stop eating ANYTHING with sugar in it that you didn't make yourself or buy with the explicit condition that it's sugar manufactured without purified ash from animal bones as is used in filters to refine sugar by many brands
The moral of the story is ...people in glass houses ........
