If I see a pretty flower in the woods and I like it, I don't pick it. I don't pick it out of compassion for the plant's life, I do so so that others can enjoy said plant. However, I wouldn't mindlessly stomp flowers either, as I do share compassion for beauty.
I believe that life and opportunity for life is beautiful (yes, especially when I'm jacking off), and do not believe that you can justifiably kill something without giving something in return, and apologies don't count. See, that's the problem with the human race in general: We consume and we don't give back. We don't give back to the ecosystem when we capture or slaughter animals for food, and we never really give back to the planet when we harvest crops. Everything we "give back" we plan to use later, which is disgusting.
However, I eat meat and veggies because I enjoy life and all it's worth living. You can call me a hypocrite, I call myself an optimist.
