People still need to stop throwing chicks into the grinder. We may need meat to eat, but the unethical treatment towards animals, no matter how much meat we're getting out of them, must stop.
We actually don't need meat to eat, but that's beside the point.
The whole "animal population control" argument is invalid as well. By stopping eating meat, we're actually reducing the amount of animals anyway, because animals are bred for our consumption. Stop eating meat, and those animals do not need to be bred.
As for more natural methods such as hunting, I'd like to take a few paragraphs from the Free From Harm website:
The more you know.

Here in Ireland, we currently have some of the tightest abortion laws in all of Europe, with it being illegal to carry out an abortion unless a woman's life is endangered by the continuation of her pregnancy. This is largely due to the hold that the Catholic Church has always had on the country, and the attitude that it's impressed upon many a generation. Hell, condoms were illegal here until the early 80s, and even then they required a doctor's prescription for the first few years. Although there have always been people calling for the legalisation of abortion (or at the very least, for looser laws) it's really only been over the last couple of years that large abortion rights campaigns have formed, held marches and protests, as well as appeared on televised debates, promoted the message through social media, etc...
The government recently organised a Citizen's Assembly for the purpose of presenting a group of 99 "randomly selected" citizens with the facts surrounding abortion, and then polling them on whether or not they believe the abortion laws should be kept as they are, reformed, or done away with completely. In the end, 87% of those polled recommended against keeping our abortion laws as they currently are, with 64% suggesting that the termination of pregnancy without restriction should be lawful. Despite this overwhelming (and quite surprising, given Ireland's track record) result, the government have yet to announce any plans for a referendum on the country's abortion laws. In fact, it's been announced that the new €300 million state-funded National Maternity Hospital is going to be under the ownership of the Sisters of Charity, a religious congregation that will undoubtedly use their faith as an excuse not to carry out IVF, birth control operations and, of course, abortion should it be legalised.
So uhh yeah, you could say I'm a bit irked by that!

People should be able to live how they want, period.

Obamacare repeal bill passed in the house. But it still has yet to pass in the senate.
Honestly, healthcare should be affordable, but must all be on the capitalistic sector. One reason why I was against Obamacare in the first place is because I think healthcare should be capitalistic and not socialized. The replacement plan the GOP was trying to pass is still letting socialized medicine stay in America. I don't think socialized medicine should even be here. Government funding and some government regulations on healthcare is fine, but government management of healthcare is not fine.
To the House and Senate GOP: Do you really want a capitalistic healthcare system, or do you just want Obamacare gone?

I cannot disagree with you more.
People's health should not be a business.
Putting profit ahead of saving lives is beyond unconscionable--it is flat out, unequivocally evil.
What caused it to get dirty in the first place?
