I'm not arguing either way, however I do think you should have read the
article properly before commenting on it.

>From the article:
-------------------------
Am I responsible for the death of animals, even though I am a vegetarian,
don't use leather or fur? Sure. One only need observe the bugs on my truck
grill to see that. But I have decided to minimize my impact on animals and
work to help them, rather than kill them.

I have a lot of making up to do.
