Re: Urewera 17 Community Dinner

Sounds boring. Count me out.

Bring on the beer, meat and dancing girls!

Re: Urewera 17 Community Dinner

Did you know that a lot of those cops who arrested those people eat meat?

Studies have proved that meat not only hurts animals and gives you cancer but it also makes people more agressive.

And look at what beer does to people, makes themn act like lunatics.

Re: Urewera 17 Community Dinner

Um how can eating something you are mostly made out of give you cancer, doesnt make that much sense

Re: Re: Urewera 17 Community Dinner

probably a combination of growth hormones, pesticides, herbicides, sheep dip, and all those other goodies.
Would be interesting to see the results of a study re organic meat vs processed meat re cancer rates, I'd imagine a decrease in cancer, whereas potential for violence remains the same.
It makes perfect sense to me, if you hunt, you need to be violent to some extent.

Why support these dole moochers?

Re: Urewera 17 Community Dinner

Massive guys! Nice work!

"Um how can eating something you are mostly made out of give you cancer, doesnt make that much sense"

Meat-eaters have a higher risk of several cancers, especially bowel cancer. Fact.
Putting dead animal meat in your guts is not entirely beneficial.
You should stay in and read more.

Re: Urewera 17 Community Dinner

Compulsory vegan fare is not "amazing", or even "yummy" as it was previously touted.
It is indeed boring; either fiborous gluggy pap derived from various animal fodders or super expensive meat substitutes. After a dutiful vegan munch you will get a good swift cleanout from it and that's about all.

Mind you theres nothing wrong with dancing girls as long as they are not being used as sex objects.

Re: Urewera 17 Community Dinner

Go 128!

And huge props to all the Support Groups around New Zealand! Great stuff!!!

Re: Urewera 17 Community Dinner

Yeah, huge props. Just remember you're not welcome to the function if you take milk in your tea.

Re: Urewera 17 Community Dinner

fantastic work people!!!!

"After a dutiful vegan munch you will get a good swift cleanout from it and that's about all."
Well that's better than being constipated like a grumpy meat-eater.
Constipation leads to bowel cancer. Fact.

"Why support these dole moochers?"
Why support the existence of the rich, who generally do no useful work?
