i guess it is kinda mean to breed cows and chickens etc/ just to kill them, but i dont see much point in being a vegetarian, as it isnt gonna stop any animals being killed. Also, some cows have their own field and spend their life eating grass and whatnot. When they do go to get slaughtered, it isnt like they know what is going on...
I also dont see how some people can refuse to eat milk or cheese etc. the animal isnt suffering at all when they're getitng milked, its actually a natural thing happening (kinda)
i am against animal testing however, because that casues animals to suffer for extended periods of time, compared to the animals just getting killed one day...
i hope this post makes sense...
