I'm sorry you got downvoted. It wasn't me, i just posted a facetious (joking, not very well thought-through) comment. I am indeed flexibly vegetarian/freegan, but i'm used to ribbing and being ribbed about it :) (haha geddit ribbing haha)

My comment was made in an understanding spirit, and indeed, i am clearly a proponent of ethical meat if someone is not prepared to go without :). So no, i personally don't think it's silly at all (what is silly, however, is downvoting a random person on the Internet with whom you do not agree on the subject :p).

Peace and kindness and all that, and have a nice day :) Thanks for the informative link! Maybe i'll send it to some of my more staunchly carnivorous friends.
