The title pretty much somes it up, I am unsure if i am the only one out there that thinks the opinion of meat eaters are not as important as vege's because as if they care when baby animals are slaughtered. hmm is that okay? i mean of course i would never tell them happy

I hate hearing about people health problems, directly related to their diets... And yet they do NOTHING about it. Makes me so angry. Don't bitch about your diabetes when your sitting there eating sugar laced dessert!! I married an omni, I tell him what he's eating frequently. Thank god I can talk to him honestly about things that shit me. Not sure (not that he has all this knowledge) why he still eats the way he does! Oh that's right.. It tastes good..angry

Every vegan would surely feel like this at least occasionally! I know I do!

I hear meat eaters saying "everyone is different. It's my choice to eat meat" but I see it like this. As soon as you make a decision that affects others in a negative way, it is no longer you're decision and therefor not fair of you to claim it is okay. I don't like it how they seem to think that murder is perfectly acceptable. (negative is an understatement considering animals are MURDERED for 'their choice' )
I also find myself rolling my eyes at those who say " As long as it was humane". HEY! NEWSFLASH! NO SUCH THING AS HUMANE MURDER duhhhh  confused
ugh the days when I wish I wasn't a part of this disgusting species.
Do remember this though: people are more likely to follow by seeing how happy, healthy and inspiring you are rather than listen to you rant (not assuming that you rant) . That's why I just don't say much at all. Which probably explains why I just wrote so much. I have had both my sisters go vegetarian, and other friends too.

I think the best way is honesty. If people ask you why you are vegan tell them honestly and unashamedly, but you don't have to then go on and tell them what you think of their diet (it will probably be implied anyway). They will probably respect you more for it and actually feel more comfortable asking you about the individual issues, at least thats been my experience.

unbiased opinions can sometimes be useless.

you need to form a bias as to who/what exactly you mean by meat eaters and then discern enough to realize... you don't mean 'meat eaters' you mean f**k faces.
(it is just a derogatory term used for people you don't like, so how is it a surprise that you don't think they are worthy, as being people put aside into a 'not worthy' bin term)

my brother spends alot of his time establishing native environments like ponds and plantings, in peoples homes. but is also on call to take care of injured animals people find, like lizards and so on. he grew up raising frogs in this back yard.

there is more than one person out there who cares deeply about animals,
but eats them wink

are Inuits and every other land-respect based culture, who hasn't dug up the earth to be able to afford your opinion in the same boat?

they know animals more than anyone, because they spend time to watch them ,
live and be with them, share intertwined fates, we just sit on our virtual reality,
telling people who were raised, needing the land.. like farmers that they
are f**k faces.

There is not such thing as being too harsh on meat eaters. They have no compassion. The majority are inconsiderate to our beliefs.

it's sometimes really hard to deal with "meat-eaters" especially the ones who think they know what they are talking about, when they actually have no idea... haha like when they assume that meat is the only source of iron, protein, B12, zinc ect ect
like, if you don't even know WHAT those are or where they come from WHY EVEN OPEN YOUR MOUTH.
i find it very hard to keep my cool when talking to meat-eaters, even so to the point someone could just be curious and i will snap their head off.
they all say the same regurgitated carnist bullsh*t, and it is almost too much to bare.
but in the end, you have to try and be as civil as you can towards them, because that's a big part of the animal rights movement...
so, don't feel bad for getting angry, anger is what keeps the movement alive, we have every right to be angry over the horrors that happen to animals daily.

Blast them.

Seriously, blast them if they troll!

It takes someone strong to be able to love and respect lives of animals, but someone weak to attack those who do.

Good luck! (:
