When omnivores are talking about the SPCA: It's so sad that they have to 'put down' these poor animals, but it's better for them now. It's a good thing the SPCA loves these pets.
When omnivores are talking about PeTA: Those sick bastards killed so many animals! They're hypocrites! They kill [insert ridiculously high and often false number]% of the animals they steal!
- PETA actually said they have killed 90% of domesticated animals that got into their care. This is one reason many vegans, like myself, don't support them. that and the fact that they keep giving vegans bad names with there so called commercials.
- Actually: that was years ago (not to mention the fact that its caused by people not adopting/spaying/neutering, not because they get a kick out of it). Do you know what their new statistic is? Have you ever been to the VDACS website and checked it out? It's about 79% in 2010 ( http://www.virginia.gov/vdacs_ar/cgi-bin/Vdacs_search.cgi?link_select=facility&form=fac_select&fac_num=157&year=2010 ). But you know what you just reinforced? The idea that when a shelter euthanizes a pet, it's okay, but when PeTA euthanizes an animal, it's "horrendous killing". Both are euthanasia and neither is holier than the other (despite the fact that PeTA uses the most harmless methods of euthanasia, by injection, and many shelters have inefficient and painful methods). The people giving "vegans a bad name" are the ones who keep misrepresenting the statistic of how many animals are euthanized per year. Most animal shelters "kill" just as many animals as PeTA, and yet people always talk about that like it's just "sad but necessary". Should animals need to be euthanized? No. But that's not their problem, it's ours - we need to adopt, we need to spay/neuter. They are cleaning up our mess because we are irresponsible.

Being vegan is NOT HARD.
little-vegan:
I’m so sick of people thinking my life is so hard because I don’t consume animal products or by-products. Really, being vegan is pretty much the least of my worries. It’s one of the things I’m most proud of.

vegansaurus!: We are not alone: vegans are now 2.5... →
vegansaurus:
Sometimes I feel so lonely in my veganism that I ruin a perfectly good pot of cooking quinoa by crying into it and end up eating a bottle of wine four bites of an old gross salad for dinner instead. But no more! Apparently, 2.5 percent of adults in the United States are vegan!* Megan said the last number she heard was 0.5 percent

One of the great things about Tumblr is that people use it for just about every conceivable kind of expression. People being people, though, that means that Tumblr sometimes gets used for things that are just wrong. We are deeply committed to supporting and defending our users’ freedom of speech,…
