No I wasn't a lobster in a former life but I don't need to have been to say that boiling water being poured over you hurts I think everyone would agree with me on that. Where as if I said pouring boiling water over you doesn't hurt somehow I don't think anybody would believe me. Unless I was talking about a lobster in which case the majority would agree. No I don't know whether they are killed instantly but thats not my point whether they are killed instantly or not I still think its wrong.


'kay so while you're at it why not stop every animal that eats meat on the planet from eating the other animals so we can all live in harmony. Two quid says the first Lion you walk upto and ask to stop eating buffalos rips your face off. This is a natural process. People eat things to survive. Meat and Animals are another form of food.
A lion needs to eat meat to survive, we do not.
Just because you don't agree with it doesn't make it right or wrong.
You could say that about everything the murderer or the rapeist could say "just because you don't agree with it doesn't make it right or wrong". If I killed a human being and ate them the majority would think I was wrong. If it was an animal they'd see no problem with it. You cannot have empathy for something or someone until you put yourself in its place and most humans are unable to do that with animals hence them eating them. For showing empathy towards an animal im wrong? I know im not.
