Just a question @sunni

What are the limitations a vegan has with regard to using a product derived from animals? Is there an age cut-off, e.g can a vegan wear leather if it's a certain age, is there a "humanitarian" aspect, e.g. could they use animal products/derivatives if the animal(s) died naturally? Is there a cut-off with regard to the animals considered when it comes to being a vegan? e.g. plankton isn't really an animal so does it count.

I have my own preconceptions, but there is a specific "trick question" that was brought up recently that was deemed "quite interesting" :)

Sunni is right, everyone's different. People have different reasons for not eating and not using animal products.

I don't have the moral problem as much as I care about my health. Eating cows that are fed corn and given hormones and antibiotics doesn't seem healthy or desirable to me. Chickens that are genetically modified, and stand in their own shit there whole lives, in close quarters.. Is just asking for diseases. Has anyone googled outbreaks from poultry or meat? My personal preference.
I don't eat meat, chicken, fish, cheese..

But I will drink raw milk and eat eggs . Weird as hell I know.

Everyone's different

We dont "tell people" it usually goes like this

"no thank you"
"on a diet? WHY NOT?!"
"because i dont eat meat"
"oh WHY WHAT ARE YOU?"
"im vegan"

"OH FUCKING VEGANS HAHA HOW DO YOU KNOW SOMEONES VEGANS DONT WORRY THEY'LL FUCKING TELL YOU"

In Berkeley CA some put a severed Boar's head at two different locations. Then media is taking it out to say it was against vegans.

NSFV (not safe for veg/vegans)

A good buddy of mine stuck a boar head on an old clothes line post in his front yard in order to let the bugs strip it. He lives JUST outside of city limit. As in his side of the road is county and across the street is city.

Anyway, lol, the Christians took it to be upon a cross and therefore sacrilegious.
The Muslims took it as hate speech towards them.

In the end, after a visit from the sheriff's department and one from animal control, the head stayed there until it was finished.
