text: We each live according to our own code of morals Roy. However don't delude yourself into thinking that you're completely innocent of causing harm to sentient creatures by being a vegan. I worked the other day with a young man who is from a long time farming family here in the Valley where they raise carrots, cabbage, lettuce and the like. He told me this year they've had to shoot six moose (with permits) that were raiding their fields. One moose did $60,000 worth of damage to crops in one night. These farmers just barely get by. The meat is donated to charity to feed hungry families. This kind of thing takes place all over the country with feral hogs, deer, ect., I could go on and on. Most of that meat ends up in a garbage dump. So you see, you like to think you're completely innocent by going vegan, but you're not. You just don't have to be the one holding the knife.
