    Militant vegans protesting outside a butcher's shop to stop horse meat sales have been pelted with steaks by supporters of the store's owner.

    About 20 members of the Direct Action Everywhere animals rights group gathered outside celebrity chef Vince Garreffa's Mondo Butchers in Inglewood, Perth on Saturday morning.

    But the vegans were outnumbered by a group of 300 meat lovers, who blasted Italian music and paraded cuts of meat in the street in response.

    Despite the sweltering 40 degree heat, the meat eaters fought back passionately, with one man even hurling a piece of steak towards the activists.

    Pigs, by most measures, a smarter that horses.

    Come say hi. I'll be the guy with the protest sign in the bacon section in the Wimberely HEB tomorrow.

    Both the earth and most humans would be healthier if we all ate less animal protein but, damn, I love bacon!
    Teach a pig to cut out calves or single foot then come talk to me. Leave the protest signs, better yet bring bacon.

    Just to piss people people off I'll say horses are not even in the top 10.

    Somewhere below cephalopods that can open a jar to get at food.
    Leviticus' prohibition on eating octopi is my historical precident.
    Horse flesh can be kosher.


    Bye.

    Poured a bit of single malt listening to my hero Guy Clark.


    Keep the pipe warm tonight my friends.

    It's nobody else's business what another person eats, so long as we're not talking cannibalism.

    Can't accept NBC as a reliable source. Octopi, octofried, however you fix it is okay with me. Just because a critter knows I'm going to eat it is not going to stop me from eating it, I wouldn't care if it was writing a symphony.

    Useful trumps smart, so pigs can pick out squiggles, can you ride them, will they pull a plow or a wagon? No, they make bacon and pork chops which is good but pretty much a one time trick.

    Obviously being facetious point is a bent piece of wire is not a gun, I win. The relative intellect of a creature is of little concern to me. Different priorities I suppose and certainly vastly different world views.

    Octopodes.
    Sure bring a bucket of those puppies! Don't let a Thai girl cook it for you though. It was kind of crunchy with rice and a sauce hotter than the fires of hell. I tried to keep a brave face being Texan and all and managed to gasp out "so how do you cook an octopus?" With a wry smile she said "you dont" and I realized that sauce wasn't so bad after all.

    I disagree on one point. The Earth and humans can't both be healthier. One or the other.

    In general we are viruses on this planet. Healthier, longer living, and in general more humans means a less healthy Earth.

    Oh, perhaps.

    Our ancestors did pretty much no harm to our planet for the first 3,500 million years that that they were here providing food for other carnivores!!!
    Only the last dozen or 15 decades that we've (entirely temporarily)screwed it up.

    No worry.
    We cannot really disrupt it for long.
    We can, however, make it less habitable for ourselves. Most cretures that have ever existed are long extinct. We will likely follow similarly.

    The earth will carry on long after we have gone extinct or after some catechism reduces our population to a more appropriate number.

    Earth will almost certainly outlast us by at least 4-5,000 millions of years till our star's hydrogen becomes depleted.
