The average American causes the intentional slaughter of about 33.3 fully-sentient nonhuman beings annually.
I kill that on a good weekend of hunting at sea. Just like the rest of oceanic life, I look 'em right in the eye before they surrender their lives according to the law of the sea and if I ever encounter a shark that just won't go away, I suppose I shall do the same.

By contrast, there are absolutely no intentional deaths in a vegan diet...
Strange, I grow a lot of my own food too and damn if all but my trees don't die out after producing. I'm also told the equivalent of a nervous system in plants is even more sensitive to the immediate threat of death, pruning, etc. than most animals are.
