Stop the Senseless Murder of Vegetables

We humans are the dominant species on this planet. As such, I believe it's time we stood up for the smaller, defenseless organisms. Namely, the plants. Humans have stood by long enough as innocent vegetables are unwittingly plucked from their homes in the ground, brutally skinned, and thrown in a pot of boiling water. What about the poor fruits? Barbarically torn from the branches of their trees, taken away from their families and eaten whole, flesh and all.

And just why does this senseless killing continue? So a vegetarian can enjoy a meal. Humans have stood by long enough, watching vegetarians slaughter poor defenseless fruits and vegetables. It's time to end this vicious cycle. We humans can do something about it. All you have to do is join PAEIP: People Against the Eating of Innocent Plants.

You may be saying to yourself, "But I'm only one man/woman! What can I do to help your noble cause?" The solution is simple. Instead of an apple, eat a vegetarian. Not only will you be saving the life of an innocent plant, but you will be limiting the number of vegetarians and helping stop the senseless murder of fruits and vegetables. For every vegetarian you eat you save hundreds of innocent fruits and vegetables that would have been eaten through the course of the vegetarian's life. I believe this is the niche nature intended humans to take. It is our job to lower the number of vegetarians and allow for the vegetable and fruit species to replenish.

Why should poor plants be sacrificed so tragically, just so these vegetarians can eat, especially when they could just slaughter a cow like the rest of us? It's just not fair. Fruits and vegetables are completely incapable of defending themselves. They literally couldn't hurt a fly if they wanted to, yet vegetarians choose to eat these poor creatures as opposed to cows which have killed humans before, and will kill humans again. How many people have been killed by a cute little kiwi?

Deer are the most dangerous animal in the United States, running out into the road like idiots, causing car wrecks and killing or injuring us humans. By not helping limit the numbers of deer by eating them, vegetarians are essentially killing humans. When was the last time a poor little carrot killed someone? When was the last time a ripe, innocent apple caused a car wreck? Never.

The next time you're hungry for a salad, remember the innocent lettuce. Remember the poor tomatoes. And remember the vegetarians that are causing the deterioration of both the plant and human species. Do yourself and the world a favor: eat a vegetarian today.
