1. Although I'll probably regret the shitstorm this thread will stir up

I guess I can come out of my posting hiatus for this.

6. "why is it... vegetarians want everyone to be vegetarians?"

:wtf:
Where has anyone said that everyone should be a vegetarian.

It would be nice, but I haven't seen anybody push this on anyone. When even pointing out the advantages of being a veg*n is considered flamebate then the omnivores are just a bit too touchy.

7. Geez- what's with the deleted sub-threads?

9. They're well deserved.

For the sake of harmony, I'll just say that there was discussion about LeftyMom's thread being locked, which Elad posted about below.

8. FYI

This lock was unnecessary, I'm going to talk to the moderators about it, but once again (as I've said to many of the regulars in this forum, and as is clearly written in our rules which everyone agreed to when they joined DU), I wish you would have just sent me a polite PM asking me to check into it.
