Not really sure what to put here…I usually put relevant excerpts, but that got this post deleted for doing that

    I didn’t realize transplants only came from killing people,

    Can you explain your point a little more?

        When did I say all transplants require killing someone? I said that a heart transplant required someone with a working heart to die. Just as a lion eating meat requires another animal to die.

          Since lions aren’t moral agents (look this up if you’re unfamiliar with the term, it’s not only a vegan term) they don’t commit murder when they kill for food. Also, someone dying and donating an organ also isn’t murder.

            I didn’t say they committed murder. I said they rely on the death of others. Why should a species that must lead to the suffering of my others continue to persist if you can end it without harming the animal?
