Quote by: ParaTed2k Ok, then call me confused. You aren't arguing for vegetarianism, or for buying meat vs. hunting it. If we didn't buy meat, and didn't hunt, we would be vegetarians... right?
So other than hunting or buying meat, how do you propose we get meat? |
Sheesh...please read topic name. We don't need meat to live, if its from a super market or from hunting, but this is not about why we shouldn't eat meat, this is about hunting. Do you get it now?

Quote by: another day Lol, look mate you can't avoid questions by saying this is a "hunting only" debate. All the topics I mentioned are inevitably intertwined... If you are saying "hunting=bad" then you must be saying it is more humane and appropriate to get meat from farmed animals. Either that or you are saying that all meat eating is bad. Regardless of which your position is, you must state it and defend it. You can't sidestep questions by just saying "we can't talk about that in this thread". You keep saying we aren't here to talk about vegetarianism or farmed animals and yet you yourself have been making many comments regarding the two things.
Why don't you just state your position that you believe humans should stop eating meat because it's "not needed". Instead you have tried to make a new thread with a narrow focus specifically on hunting to avoid the broader topics that attack your worldwide vegetarianism proposition. |
Oh come on...get real. If you want to turn this into a 'why we shouldn't eat meat' thread, be my guest. But the original intent was to talk about hunting, not eating meat.
If you say one thing is bad (eg. hunting) it doesn't mean the other is better or more humane (eg. factory farms).
I thought if people wanted to talk about not eating meat, they could go to the vegertarian thread. Guess some people can't find that. I was focussing on a topic, hunting. I don't understand how people can think if I say hunting is bad then I'm saying factory farms are better. Please explain.
I love it how people try to swing the topic to make it suit them better

Won't work in the long run, sorry.
