ATLANTA - A vegan couple were sentenced Wednesday to life in prison for the death of their malnourished 6-week-old baby boy, who was fed a diet largely consisting of soy milk and apple juice.

Superior Court Judge L.A. McConnell imposed the mandatory sentences on Jade Sanders, 27, and Lamont Thomas, 31. Their son, Crown Shakur, weighed just 3 1/2 pounds when he died of starvation on April 25, 2004.

The couple were found guilty May 2 of malice murder, felony murder, involuntary manslaughter and cruelty to children. A jury deliberated about seven hours before returning the guilty verdicts.

Well, then again.....vegans aren't really all that smart to begin with.

Veganism is much like Christianity and religion in general. It's an semi-organized bunch of nutjobs with the same beliefs shitting on those who do not believe. They should all fucking hang as far as I'm concerned.

Just like the Earth First assholes burning down car dealerships and buildings because the owners of said edifaces don't share the same beliefs. They are extremist nutjobs no different than radical muslims, southern baptists, devout Catholics, or any other retarded religion. Vegans just come up with a different stupid excuse for their moronic actions.

Holier than thou asshole hippies? Come on, if you don't believe in Christianity you wouldn't send your kid to a church. Not believing in eating animal products and therfore not feeding your kid any is the same thing. The prosecution attorney made the best point, that the kid died because he wasn't fed, period. Do you think you or anybody would be able to live on a diet consisting of soymilk and apple juice? Of course not. This has nothing to do with them being vegan, it has to do with them being retarded.

It is also true that soymilk says on the side of it that it's not to be used as infant formula.

Yeah dude, you totally said it. All vegans burn down car dealerships and factory farms in their spare lives and have nothing else to do with their days. None of them have jobs or friends or family that they pay attention to, they just wake up in the morning and protest violently to people in an attempt to change the way they think.

No, but they bring their worthless asses up to Portsmouth, NH and lay in styrofoam meat packs wrapped in plastic in the middle of our streets with a pricetag on the wrapper and think that people actually give a shit. As if a meateater would walk by and say, "You know honey, they really do have a point, meat is torture."

Veganism is a lame culture full of idiots trying to be different. You need a hobby, because nobody really gives a shit about your diet or clothing preferences.

Try arguing something that anyone other than yourself gives a shit about, then you may gain some sort of credibility. Until then, Imma go eat my HAM steak and POLENTA smothered in BUTTER.

There are people like that in any culture/subculture/etc. Plently of people listen to metal to appear tough, it doesn't mean everyone does. I've said it before and I'll say it a million more times; vegans don't eat animal products because they aren't down with aiding a holocaust. Get all bent out of shape over my use of the H word if you want, but it is true. Do you seriously think that nobody doesn't support factory farming because it's horrible and they all really just want to be cool/different? What about vegan metalfolk that will get nothing but shit from the metal community for being a pussy? What about vegans in the deep south?

You brought this up last time and it was a piss poor argument then, too. None of those field mice and rabbits led tortured lives or were born into imprisonment. Also, suggesting that the alternative to eating plants that the harvesting of kills wild animals is to eat the meat of tortured animals that are fed way more plant food than all of the crops grown for humans combined that are harvested in the same way is fucking stupid.

Death is okay. If a lion kills a gazelle to eat I have no problem. If a 99 year old man dies of old age I have no problem. I also have no problem with how the native americans lived. I do, however, have a huge problem with entire species bred and born into imprisonment and torture. I don't eat meat because I don't want to and don't have to, but I see nothing inherently wrong with killing animals for food. I do not believe meat is murder, but suggesting that the field mice thing or hunting or whatever is even close to the same as factory farming is crazy.

Veganism is incredibly easy. Your comment about vegans being malnourished is baseless. All vitamins/minerals/etc humans need to thrive can be found in plants. Do you have any sources for this shit better than your buddy?

Also, if you had actually read my post you would know that I don't think killing for food is wrong. Getting rid of factory farms does not get rid of hunting.

Maybe the reason it's not easy for him is because he's surrounded by you and all your asshole friends who keep calling him a pussy at every turn for the way he decided to live his own life.

It is true that there are substitutes out there for everything you could imagine, not to mention a lot of the crap food out there that's already vegan(Oreos, Fritos, Twizzlers, Swedish fish, etc.). I don't eat meat but I'm while I'm not a vegan I do have some tendencies, ie. I drink soymilk(I honestly think it tastes better), I will avoid dairy if I don't have to eat it but sometimes I'm just lazy. Some stuff can still be made too(like pizza) but it just has to be made with different ingredients. Probably the reason it's expensive has more to do with the demand for it. They hide all the organic stuff in the grocery store or maybe they just have different stores for it altogether because people can just get their brand name shit easier. It's all just a matter of willpower, really.

Really, I think the only reason for it to be more expensive is when people can't/don't cook and want to just eat premade things. A box of veggie burgers, tofurkey products, and the like will add up quickly. Things like Tofu, Seitan, Tempeh, and Gluten are better than fake meats anyway (in my opinion) and don't have to be expensive. Gluten is incredibly easy and cheap to make yourself.

I like you because you aren't dumb you bitch well.



toggletoggle post by Lamp  at May 10,2007 1:54am
Yeah. I went into an organic grocery store the other day that had a pretty limited selection(I would have to drive 20 minutes to Providence to get to the nearest Whole Foods) and I didn't buy a lot but wound up spending almost 30 bucks. I'm guessing that had just as much to do with the place being a small business. I do dig tofu a lot though, haven't had seitan before but am interested in trying it, I've seen it used in some recipe for fake Italian beef sandwiches or something like that.

I didn't understand why someone would want to stop eating meat for the longest time ever, but the first time I actually tried to do it, while I only lasted a week and a half, I realized just how much food I'd overlook and how meat was basically everywhere. It gets disturbing to think of the mass quantities of animals being raised into slaughter after a while for that. There are probably more animals killed in a day than a regular hunter could kill in a decade, if I had to guess.



toggletoggle post by ZJD   at May 10,2007 1:59am
Well, buying a bunch of organic produce can be expenisve, but vegan =/= organic. I think seitan and gluten are basically the same thing, you can get canned gluten chunks for way cheap in asain markets or bags/boxes of different kinds of gluten hunks or flavored seitan for more money. I think seitan might just be flavored baked gluten, i'm not sure, it seems the same to me.



toggletoggle post by Lamp  at May 10,2007 2:03am
*shrug*

That is true that organic doesn't equal vegan, I did see a bunch of cheese products, probably even some organic beef or whatever. I did buy a bunch of bananas from that store that while smaller than regular bananas, turned out to be far superior in taste.

I think groceries in general are probably expensive, but so is eating out of the house since you have to pay other people to make your food for you. Luckily for me I hate people and fail to see the point of leaving the house outside of working most of the time these days so I don't even miss going out to eat much.

Aloo paratha is a flat bread stuffed with a thin layer of spiced mashed potato and a vegetable samosa is a fried or baked turnover type thing stuffed with spiced poatato and usually peas. You can find both at any indian place. If I ever get a tattoo of different wonderful food items, I plan on including vegetable pakoras. They are the perfect fried food.

You simply do not get it. When you compare animals eating other animals to us eating them and say our practices are okay because we are at the top of the food chain, I can only assume you refuse to read anything that might challenge your views. Carnivorous and omnivorous animals do not enslave other species of animals and keep them in dark boxes to piss on each other their whole lives in order to eat. We do.

The couple were found guilty May 2 of malice murder, felony murder, involuntary manslaughter and cruelty to children. A jury deliberated about seven hours before returning the guilty verdicts.

I was a pretty adventurous eater before going vegan but I know a lot of people that have a much more varied diet now that they have gone vegan or vegetarian. Lots of people just eat burgers, pasta, fries, and bagels, decide to go vegan, and learn through a little research or from others about all kinds of vegan friendly ethnic foods and end up having a way more well rounded diet.

Meat is obviously not murder and lots of PeTA people bum me out, especially when they don't know what the fuck they are talking about and just want to rile people up rather than actually change minds. Most meat does come from practices more horrible than most human murder, though.

If it's ok for animals to kill other animals then why is it that these upity queers get their panties in a knot when people kill animals for consumption among other benefits. With that said, I do think wearing fur is gay and is for yuppie fags. Vegans are just pussies who must feel guilty of the fact that we are pretty much at the top of the food chain. Much like most of the socialist liberal blame-America-first types who loath the fact that the U.S. has become the greatest and most powerful nation in the world.


i'm glad we're at the top of the food chain. i'm glad i have the option of being vegan and don't need animal products to live or be healthy. we are not carnivores, we are omnivores.

and as for liberalism/hating america, how do you think america became the most powerful nation in the world? everybody wants to be rich and powerful and you don't become either by being nice.

it's one thing to be on top, it's another to embrace being a prick about it.

9/11 was a long-over due reaction to our government thinking they can run the world like the mafia with no consequences...and was carried out for the most part by people from Saudi Arabia, a country that owns 7-8% of our economy, and has serious issues with women's rights, but alot of oil.

Looking back, yes, I'm surprised we weren't attacked sooner...you can't expect to have a government that's made it a habit over the last 60 years to invade countires, kill thousands of people and steal their resources to support our lifestyle here, and have no bad reaction or consequences. The problem is that the government never faces the consequences of these actions, we do. You can't keep kicking people in the face and expect them to keep smiling at you. You seriously think no one is ever going to retaliate if we let the government continue this behavior toward the rest of the world? Do you have any idea what our foreign policy is?

there is nothing in the consitution against socialism, and the founding fathers WERE extremely liberal. this country is founded on liberalism. socialism did not exist for half of this countries existance and was only demonized post-world war 2 because we didn't want russia gaining more power than the U.S., hatred of liberalism IS hatred of america. it is anti-american.

they were never the worlds power in europe. muslims took over as far as constantinople in turkey and made that city and country islamic and changed the name to istanbul, that's about as far and as much power as they ever got in europe.

hungtableed said:

as i said it wasn't until they formed the islamic empire that they got anywhere into europe. also for the first couple hundred years, the islamic empire was the center of academia in the world. most of the great advances of man during that period were made by muslims in great islamic schools. it wasn't until much later that they fell into their current dark ages. europens/christians also went through a dark ages if you recall.

hungtableed said:

everybody wants influence in the world, unfortunately in reality this is not influence we're talking about but domination. and yes, america is on top in the domination racket and islam would very much like to be on top, it's no secret or surprise, it's the same shit that's been going on since the dawn of civilization. group of people get together, become powerfull, take shit over. another group gets together, becomes powerfull, takes over that group.

hungtableed said:

well, islam is the 2nd biggest religion on earth. they have enourmous influence. religiously speaking i think they have way greater influence than christianity has. you don't see die hard christian soldiers the world over.

i don't think their goals are justified, i think islam is just another corrupt empire gripped by a struggle for power and domination, and i am VERY glad they do not have world domination as i have absolutely no intentions of living under sharia law. but to ignore the faults of the U.S. simply because islam is fucked up is ignorant as hell. being an asshole is not ok simply because someone else is a bigger asshole. and globally speaking the U.S. is the bigger asshole. saudi arabia is not opressing me.

also remember "america" is many things to many people. to some it is our government, to others it is our populace, to others it is our culture, to others it is our corporate culture (the real power source), to others it is our technology, and hating aspects of america does not make one anti american, especially given the ideologies that founded this very country. see something wrong, try to fix it, to create a better place to live.

That's inaccurate. You're forgetting the Moorish occupation of Al-Andalus between the 10th and 15th centuries. The Caliphate of Cordoba was the central non-Christian power in Europe during the 11th century, and the Caliphate exchanged embassadors with the Holy Roman Empire which itself was experiencing a period "dark ages." While the rest of Europe was plunged into the Dark Ages, Muslim occupation helped the Iberian Peninsula to flourish and produce some spectacular works of art.

veganism is not what killed the child.

Neglect is.

Soymilk is not to be fed to a child as a substitute for formula and breastmilk, but a child can survive off of it.

It didn't die from eating apple juice and soymilk, it died from not eating enough of it.

And bedsores they found on the child are proof of it's neglect.


... and now the vegan couple is starving to death in jail because jail menues don't accomidate vegans and even though they will die in jail, they STILL won't budge and eat meat.




Militant vegans are goons, people who protect them are goons, people to call them gay are goons, and you're all a bunch of goons.

Veganism is much like Christianity and religion in general. It's an semi-organized bunch of nutjobs with the same beliefs shitting on those who do not believe. They should all fucking hang as far as I'm concerned.

Just like the Earth First assholes burning down car dealerships and buildings because the owners of said edifaces don't share the same beliefs. They are extremist nutjobs no different than radical muslims, southern baptists, devout Catholics, or any other retarded religion. Vegans just come up with a different stupid excuse for their moronic actions.


what the fuck are you talking about?
there are 100 ligitimate scientific reasons to be vegan.
u dont have to get organized just pay attention what you eat.
religion is fucking stupid fairy tale shit.
earth first and peta have nothing to do with being vegan they are using veganism as an excuse to take out agression. so yes:
