My name is Jennie, and I'm a vegan. Vegans don't eat or use anything that comes from an animal. I've heard it described at "nothing that farts or has a face" but that's vulgar and I'm a prude. This blog is my labor of love, all about how I kick ass and take names on a regular basis.

I know this is a useless, angry comment, but I fucking hate people.
Ditto.
And....Prop 2 in California if passed will only add to more of the same. Prop 2 is just more welfare which does nothing...ZERO to get people who are 100% of the reason these poor animals must live and die like this.
No more Welfare! Go Vegan.
I don't know if we agree entirely, Mr. Steir. As a general statement, I tend to agree with incrementalism as such measures address the premise that suffering is inherently evil and ought to be reduced, without irrationally existing in the conclusion alone - at the expense of the pain and misery. However, this relies on a quantifiable reduction in harm, and therefore, Prop. 2 may not be good legislation. I don't know. I do, however, very much appreciate your comment.
