I mean, plenty of people also have a problem with that. I'm not sure a discussion on the ethics of a thing should end just because a similar thing is more widespread.

It seems a little ridiculous to worry about animals being used for life-saving medical research when most Americans are eating meat every single day, to be honest. Sure, one could consistently oppose both, but from a sheer sense of proportion, why is _this_ the thing to worry about?
