    It’s wrong after it’s dead because it’s disrespectful to the deer, which was once a living being.

    But people eat the deer with zero moral qualms. Are you really going to tell me that yanking something’s skin off, cracking its bones, gouging out its internal organs, and processing its meat into sausages for roasting is a sign of respect?

      If the animal represents your only available food source, consuming it is required to continue living.

      You aren’t going to die if you fail to rape a dead animal, but you might if you fail to eat one.

        For how many people do you think animals are the only viable food source? How many in this thread? Like 10%? Sure hope anyone with options therefore doesn’t…

        is it true that anyone rich enough to eat deer meat need it, or any kind of meat at that, to survive?

          I just thought it was really funny to read “rich enough to eat deer meat” because deer is pretty much the only thing that the broke rednecks in my neighborhood eat!
