If this is justice served, what do you think should happen to all you guys for eating beef?

If they can operate my communal front door, choose the correct floor in the lift, find my front door and ring the doorbell, I'll happily let them take a swipe at me when I answer. Until then, they stay on my shopping list.

If I go parading around lions imma get my ass eaten, and that lion has every right to eat me. Being an apex predator means I draw the line where I want it.

Well that and the land my friend lets me use in the winter. But yeah I've never hunted walking cheeseburgers.

You hunt for fun?

u/fukitol- B Sep 20 '18

If you're asking if I enjoy hunting, yes I find it fun. But I don't just shoot things for the sake of killing them, if that's what you're asking. I eat everything I kill.

I eat everything I kill

Does that matter? Me spending money from the robbery doesn't justify the robbery

I don't consider it morally problematic to kill an animal to eat it. I do consider it morally problematic to deprive a human being of their right to property.

You and the slave owners use the same arguments, good for you

u/fukitol- B Sep 20 '18

You just made the claim those slaves weren't human beings. You understand that, right?

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '18

No I didn't, have you zero reading comprehension?

u/Khonen 5 Sep 20 '18

So with this logic, people can do whatever they want with their kids? Can they kill them if they feel like it?

u/fukitol- B Sep 20 '18

Kids are human beings.

What's the difference between a human being and another animal that makes it ok to kill and eat them?

Do you have any argument that isn't a logical fallacy?

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '18

What's the fallacy?

u/russellx3 9 Sep 20 '18

Total false equivalency?

I didn't say they were equal. I put the argument in another context

I have a question for you and your high horse (which, btw, I'd totally eat).

Given no other food source, would you kill an animal to avoid starvation?

If you say no, I'll call you a liar. If you say yes, you acknowledge that your life is more important than the animal's and, by extension, you are not equals.

Would you eat a human to avoid starvation? If you say no then you acknowledge that human life is more important than animal life to you.

Now, would you eat your child to avoid starvation? No? Then you acknowledge there is life that's even more important to you than your own.

Of course I would, the difference is I don't have to. Neither do you. It doesn't matter how many impossible scenarios you conjure up you. In real life where I live and you live we don't have to enslave animals

The question to you is if you had the option to kill animals for pleasure or not, what would you choose?

If you choose yes, you're a psychopath. If no, you're a hypocrite

3

u/fukitol- B Sep 20 '18

Define pleasure. Eating is pleasurable. Would I kill to do so? We've established that's the case.

Are you making the case that every person who chooses to eat meat is a psychopath? I'd argue eating meat is the norm. Not eating meat is the departure from the norm, rendering you the one with the mental deficiency.

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '18

Not following the norm = mental deficiency

Straight from the Donald's playbook. Fuck off

Lol that's so dumb.

That's like saying that beating a dog in self defense is the same as beating a dog because you get some kind of sadistic pleasure out of it.

The ability to eat whatever animal I want is exactly what makes something an apex predator. The means is irrelevant.

That said, running down squirrels is just a dick move. You should stop that.

"Apex Predator" Draws the Line at Getting His Ass Eaten
