At what point do vegans consider slaughtering animals for food is a no-no? I often hear them moaning about the killing of animals such as chickens, sheep and cows, but strangely never hear them complaining about entire ecosystems of birds, bugs, and small mammals being destroyed when a farmer fetches in his grain crops to provide vegans with bread and seeds. I love all animals and wouldn't hurt a fly, but would happily eat a vegan if stranded with one on a desert island!
