Jesse you and I have had our differences in the past on this forum but I must say that I agree wholeheartedly with this post of yours. At times it is difficult to continue contributing to debate on this forum when one is a non vegan or even non vegetarian. One has to have an extremely thick skin. Posters need reminding that there are omnis aplenty who also have a great deal of interest in animal welfare. And as I have said before regardless of whether that animal ends up on our plate or not. The world's population will never ever be a one which exists solely on a vegan diet so surely the focus of AA must lie in the care of all animals. Words are cheap and constant mudslinging eventually leads to insult fatigue and on occasion unfortunatel resistance.
