The consumer is simply at one remove from the killing, but created the demand. Like ordering a contract killer.
If you never eat meat or fish on principal, you then also have to justify why ominovores like humans should be the exception species, and not eat others on "moral" grounds.
I loathe animal cruelty, though. And gratuitous killing for trophies. I love a slow-cooked lamb...
Thank you Wyot!
Like I said I eat what I eat and find. Anything that can't be eaten makes good offal for my dogs.
