| Re: Ranting about the common omnivore....(Since they're all the same)
Unfortuantly, I have gotten that same kind of responce a number of times as well. Some people are just naturally rude like that. On the other hand, it is possible she was feeling guilty about eating meat and snapped becuase she didn't want to let that guilt show.
From what I have seen, there are three responces to the vegetarian/vegan lifestyle discussion. First off is the interested person. Someone who is a veg*n or is interested in hearing more about them. Second would be the type of person who doesn't care about the animals, and even if they 'like' animals their taste buds come first no matter how many people and animals are suffering because of it. Third is the most common- the type of person like the girl that snapped at you.
I would suggest starting a club at your school or doing a presentation about Veg*nism at your pep-rally (if you have them). It is a great way to spread the correct information without focusing on one person in particular. |
