If you are a true vegan, and grow all you're own food and do not rely farmers then I have nothing but respect for you you have high morals indeed. I have to admit I have to rely on farmers for my daily meat and bread.

Hello Colin

I would never rely on a human being for anything! and I am not anti shooting or anti farming!! unless it involves the selfish, mindless and unnecessary killing of animals.

Gulls and Magpies only rely on the waste products of humans because we leave it out for them. If we are to condemn any creature for 'waste material', do you not think that Humans are by far the worst culprits? How much of natures waste products affect us in the way it affects animals?
