I think it is funny that Pro-Choice people are here because someone was Pro-Life.
I have also worked a farm as a child and I agree that cattle are only here as a source of food.
I am not picking a fight with anyone and not trying to force my views on anyone, I just thought the direct contradiction of the stickers and the disloyalty to one's own species and the loyalty to different one was funny.
I wonder how many people would turn there backs on humanity if aliens were to show up?

Hey, I'm not pissed off!
Big difference between anger and pity, bro.

Not a bad policy as you dont encounter anyone fighting back.

It's actually: Thou shalt not murder. If it was kill, lethal force in self-defense, capital punishment, abortion in the event that the fetus is a threat to the mothers life, and of course killing animals for food; would all be problematic. Of course, the religious libtards want you to think that, and they twist the Judeo-Christian values to fit their agenda.
The actual translation of the word used in the Ten Commandments: תרצח
Is "do not take a life wantonly", i.e. do not kill without reason. If it were do not kill, there would be an inherent contradiction with other parts of Bible that discuss capital punishment[1] and self-defense[2]

I owe it out of respect for the blood, sweat and tears shed during the hunt by my ancestors over hundreds of thousands of years to continue living my life as a contented omnivore. Life at the top of the food chain has its perks.

Exactly.
For those hundreds of thousands of years, the man hunted and provided security while the woman kept cave, hut, home-whatever-and nursed young'uns. The males learned to hunt with the men, and the females learned to keep cave and nurse young'uns. Everybody needed the meat.
When we started pursuing capital instead of mammoth brisket, the framework remained.
That's a formula you don't want to Progress away from if you want to stay at the top.
That's why treebaggers, communists and feminazis are dangerous to the fabric of the universe.

When I look at my smiling dog I wonder if she regrets the choices her fore-bearers made. Way back, when the good Lord was handing out parts ("take one move to the back of the line, repeat") the dogs were ahead of humans (D before H) and took fangs, leaving us thumbs. (arf-ha arf-ha we can eat those as hor d'ovres before we eat them!")

There are meat moos and there are milk moos. So says grand-daughter, and they are all "nummy."
We all get consumed by something in the end.

I don't know how we "morfed" from bumber stickers to cows with thumbs... 
But the stupidest bumber sticker I have seen was "Obama for President - 2008"... 
But most of them were gone with "cash for clunkers"...

lol. Buyer's remorse? Can't get the sticker off? Wait! Just unload the car.*
* which is now sitting in the parking lot of the local credit union FOR SALE as the lender tries to recover what they've got into it because they had to repossess it from the buyer who got into a vehicle they couldn't afford thanks to Govt Motors and CEO Obama.
How's that for a segue?
