We eat meat - get used to it
response to Andrew Price's post Killing Animals For Food
I was hoping my first comment on Good would be... hum... good. But no - the angry bit took over. I am from Africa - and we love our meat. It is part of who we are and part of our culture. We don't look down at vegans. No matter how disgusted we are in their eating habits. So don't preach to us - respect us the way we respect others. And the way we respect the land. We eat meat - get used to it. We should really drop our attitudes towards meat and become a little more culturally sensitive. We don't want a new type of colonialism. Where people tell us how to live and what to eat. We have been there. And not thank. We don't want to go back there. No matter how good your intentions. You had good intentions the last time.

Say Onto Others...
I am not sure I could be a vegan, but to say "We don't look down at vegans. No matter how disgusted we are in their eating habits." is quite intolerant. You don’t want people telling you what to do or eat, and I can understand that. However, saying you don’t look down on vegans, and then insulting their eating habits as disgusting is not really being culturally sensitive.
