5.7 million pound of beef recalled here:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19145012/
If you add up all the collateral deaths (what are cows fed to fatten them up 
before slaughter?) associated with this meat the numbers of deaths are 
staggering.

But these deaths associated with the factory farmed meat industry are 
virtually ignored here, while the deaths associated with my carrots are 
fantastically exaggerated.  This is pure obfuscation!

And the newbie vegetarian comes here, who is doing a lot of good in 
comparison with his prior diet, and gets pounced on by this "logic" - to 
make him feel somehow guilty.  He can't be proud of his diet since Rick and 
Dutch won't let him be.  He's been labeled sanctimonious without ever 
getting to know him.  How outrageous!
