I don't like chicken factories. Howsomever, for 300 million urbanized people, it's hard to envision an ample supply of "yard eggs" to supply all those bacon-and-egg breakfasts. Or Egg McMuffins. Not enough farmhouses with 20 chickens each to keep Col. Sanders going, either.
Seriously, though, how can a person speak favorably of PETA without acknowledging the fundamental thought of its founder and still present leader, Ingrid Newkirk: "A rat is a pig is a dog is a boy." (Or girl.) To Ms. Newkirk, "owning" a pet is equally evil to eating meat. Having pets should be outlawed, she has said in public.
But, folks pick and choose from among the first ten amendments to our Constitution...
Consistency in thought. That's my problem, I guess; I'm all hobgoblined.
