Animals don't respect us, why should we respect them? And an even better point, respect is something to be earned, not something that you get just for being alive. And again, regardless of all this, we are supposed to eat animals! Our physical make-up is such that we can eat animals! And no, if an animal killed me I certainly wouldn't like it, but it would in no way be *wrong*. The world can't be the picture perfect place you want it to be. The world is what it is, a place where things kill other things to survive, and doesn't need to change just because you don't like it.

If I haven't done anything to earn your respect, then you shouldn't respect me. And respect isn't the issue anyways.

> Animals are living creatures that can think and have emotions and have feelings and feel pain (this is why they are different than plants)!!

Yeah, and animals can also kill, which makes them different than plants. And they do kill, and that's okay.

Some of them will eat the others to survive, and they'll give birth, and then the new ones will eat some other newborns and grow, and soon you'll have a whole pit full of high quality tiger meat.

If you got offended by that you're *looking* to get offended. I can't be held responsible for people using what I say to get offended.
