The video in the link is pretty great. Vegans decided to protest outside of a private business, trying to drive people away from entering, so the owner brought out a deer leg and butchered it in the front window.

LMAO, fuck vegans.  

The. Worst. I have a buddy who is extremely overweight (probably 450+) who swears that a vegan diet is going to get him "healthy" and make him shed the lbs like wildfire. I stopped arguing with him and just said "live and learn."

I don’t get people being angry about humans eating meat. Hunting for sport, fur coats, etc...ok, whatever. But for eating?? Do they also get mad when the wolf hunts the rabbit and kills it? We are lucky to be the top of the food chain, but we are still part of it. Humans eat meat and to get mad about that fact of life while ignoring the rest of the food chain is just retarded.

Well, I could see a vegan diet doing that.  He would be eating at quite the caloric deficit, especially at 450+ lbs.  Also holy fuck, how can he even move at that weight?

If they do it right, maybe, but more times than not the diet is chock full of carbs with limited protein and the vegan wonders why they are still fat. I tried to get him to go keto (high healthy fat/moderate protein/extreme low carb) and just get on a treadmill and walk (or walk in the street). 

That's awesome by that guy. 

The vegan freaks are so annoying. 

I do have a very good friend that has been a vegan for 10+ years. He does for his own health and moral purposes. The thing is, he doesn't give a shit about others eating meat and doesn't preach to me or our group about it. He can go to a regular place with us with no problem and just gets a vegan option. 

Then again, he is more libertarian and not a flaming liberal.

He needs to do something weighing that much.

A lady that used to work with my girlfriend would always go out with the girls for lunch and get (meat) burritos, pizza, burgers, etc and then she became this full on psycho vegan, going to protests, voted for Jill Stein, wanting people to die instead of animals, etc. Even boycotted one of the casinos because they were "exploiting" the horses. Friggin' loon.

I have no issue with the type of guy you mentioned, just the extremists.

I have no problem with vegans that aren't trying to force their way of life on others.

The best diet is one that you'll stick to. Hopefully he will be able to find one that works for him.

Agreed and I'm not arguing with that. Perhaps I should've mentioned that he's always bitching about "no variety" and "how to make this vegan diet work." I can't speak for everyone but I think I'd be able to stick to a diet of bacon, steak, chicken (skin on), eggs, olive oil/coconut oil, avocados, etc over broccoli & tofu (used for effect, I know there are more options).

this video is unreal stupid, the comments by the people just make me want to scream.  To think that the cops are actually trying to help their cause is laughable.

I’m impressed when I see it.

Warning: jr High sport mention

Last night at my son’s track meet 2 different visiting coaches of different teams weighed at least 375.....and neither over 5’11. Sitting in a chair near finish line with a stop watch....never got up that I noticed.

Don't want to eat meat or animal products? Sure, whatever you want.

Want to tell me I shouldn't eat meat or animal products? If you're lucky, a hearty "GFY" will be as bad as it gets. If unlucky, might be the most polite I am to you.

Those people = stupid fucks.

He's about 6'6" but 450-ish is still big. Dude's on a bunch of meds and is also celiac, I believe. That's part of the reason I recommended keto to him.

The level of psychosis these whack jobs suffer from is off the charts. 

"venison is the new kale" ........   lmao

The thing is he might go vegan and cut out fried food and shit, lose 30-40 lbs off of that, think it was because he went vegan and continue on that insane path for health.  You'll never get him to listen to Mark Sisson or Gary Taubes after that.
