I am an animal rights activist, (but not the crazy paint throwing kind) I am also a huge environmentalist. I dont eat meat, and LOVE animals. Right now i have 2 cats, 1 dog, and 2 rats (all rescued of course) I also am going to college to be a vet tech.
Other things about me is that i have a 2 year old daughter named melidee. She is the most amazing child ever and already shows a lot of love towards animals

amanda commented on the article |yes its true... I work for horizon insurence right now and i hate the pre-x clause... I had to tell a cancer paitent once that we cannot cover her because the cancer is pre-x... i find it BS to have to tell someone who will die without treatment that "sorry we cant cover you... too bad!" same with pregnant women... that should NOT be prex... atleast now that i work for insurence i know that it is very importent not to have a gap in insurence... I mean i am like a walking prex otherwise lol... I wouldnt be covered for anything if i was subject to prex... im soo sickly :(

Michele...
"Personally, I have already given up meat and dairy, but thanks to you I will never call myself a Vegan. I will never look at it as something to aspire to, when so much unkindness comes with the title."
Why would you not stop eating eggs because of this? I have met a few bad vegetarians even b4 i went veg but that doesnt mean i was going to continue to scarf down on meat because they pissed me off. Your statement seems EXTREMLY IMMATURE! If everyone thought like that than no one would be vegetarian or vegan because there is always going to be someone who makes us mad. You cant clasify a whole group on a few amount of people you dont like.
Also if you think all vegans are unkind how about instead of continuing to eat eggs why not go vegan and show people that there are decent vegans out there by acting like a decent vegan.
Anyways no one is going to agree with each other so i personally feel this topic should be closed, otherwise the fighting is going to continue.

I love your blogs and dont see anything wrong with them. Also it is because of your blogs that i eventually want to become vegan. I had been a vegetarian for awhile and had never intended to go vegan (mainly because i just didnt know much about milk and eggs) Im lactose intolerent so i hardly touch milk anyways, and i dont like honey, so i really just need to wean myself off eggs.
Anyways i have read many diffrent kinds of AR blogs but it took yours to get me thinking about veganism.
but i do have a question for you... What about pet chickens? My grandma has four pet chickens, they even all have names, and she has no intention to eat them. There is no male around and they live in a pretty big enclosure.. they of course still lay eggs but they wont hatch and eventually would just rot if left there.. Is it wrong to eat those eggs? They seem very happy, and have all the food they want... IDk im kinda 50/50 on whether it would still be wrong or not to eat the eggs. I understand i wouldnt be vegan but if i cut everything out, milk, honey, eggs and products with eggs in it at the store, i would be pretty damn close lol.
Would it still be cruel?

amanda commented on the article |I have been watching the deer one very closly since it happened in my state and was outraged when they let him go with nothing. We need to fix that loophole so that from now on people can get charged with animal cruelity.

WOW! I just dont understand people...

amanda commented on the article |It seems like a good idea in a way but arnt prisons supposed to be punishments. We dont want them to start feeling like resorts. I know two people who have gone to prison. One went to a really nice one and the other went to a really crappy one. The guy that got sent to the nice one is still dealing drugs and doesnt seem at all scared to be thrown back in prison yet the other who went to the crappy one said he NEVER wanted to have to live in "hell" again and straightend his ass out.
If people arnt afraid to go to jail they wont care so much about obeying laws.
Anyways im kinda 50/50 on the idea. It has its goods and bads.
