YOU do it. Doesn't mean someone else can. Don't judge others by yourself. Especially since we've never met and you don't know me.
And thanks for the creepy image of your bare hands on "Thumpers" neck. Like those people who join vegetarian communities just to post images of slaughtered bloody animals to squick people and get their knickers in a twist. Did you deliberately mean to be mean by posting that way? Is it fun for you? Get a kick out of it?
If so, I find that motivation more disgusting than the actual act.
I buy meat from a CSA. I know they kill the animals so it ends up on my plate. But *at least* they have good lives before, and a quick painless end. One may argue that death is death, and it doesn't matter whether the killer respects and thanks his prey (like Native Indian culture does) or gloats at its demise. But "when the fall is all there is, it matters."
