calling for solidarity with Mcdonalds

DoublemeDoubleme Member Posts: 1,581
I am a strong believer in freedom of speech and the right to protest. However I do not agree with using physical force to try and force your views and values on other people.
The vegan protest against Mcdonalds today does just that by them attempting to blockade depos to force their way on Mcdonalds.
Tonight me and my girlfriend were going to have Pizzahut takeout whilst we watch the Eurovision final, However now we are switching to Mcdonalds to show our support against the Vegan protest I would call for others to do the same.

    There was a protest outside a wholesale butchers in Middleport in Stoke last year organised by some vego hit squad.

    Police had to be called as passing motorists pelted the protestors with KFC and Maccies products, it made the National news and gave the butchers about a million pounds worth of advertising and a massive increase in online traffic.

    Huge own goal methinks.

    Sounds rather fishy....or meaty.
    Could it be to kickstart the big agricultural changes ahead?
    The globalist backers at it again? Climate change.

    Why target McDonald’s , why not every butchers, livestock farm, supermarket,restaurant,burger van, FINGER LICKING, etc? And PIZZA establishments👍

    If they come anywhere near my freezer, I may have to get my weapon out.

    They could be trying to make way for Bills’ soon to be released poo burger.
    Ketchup and mustard,you won’t be able to tell the difference.

    If you wanted to kickstart a movement, what better place to start than with a conglomerate.
    When the pubs shut at 10pm,what establishments also had to shut,probably when most needed.

    You leave vegans alone

    if people want to deprive themselves of a tasty food source I have no problem with that I am a very strong believer in freedom of choice.

    If vegans want to protest and tell me I should not be eating meat or cheese I have no problem with that either, I am a strong believer in freedom of speech and freedom to protest. If however Vegans want to try and forcibly stop me eating meat either directly or via trying to forcibly restrict vendors ability to supply or other means there I have a problem.

    I don't think its right for people to forcibly force their views or way of life on others.

    I will continue to mock stupid ideas such as religion such as veganism and etc, but I will always respect others freedom of choice to follow their own path I expect the same back.

    Mocking them & respecting them at the same time. Is that possible?

    I believe that every idea should be open to ridicule as part of freedom of speech, and the ability to express ideas and criticisms of ideas.

    I believe also that people should have freedom to live their own lives their own ways. so long as they do not infringe on others ability to live however they want to.

    me saying I think someones ideas are silly or laughing at them does not infringe on their freedom to follow their own path.

    I drink, I gamble, I eat meat and I have pre-marital sex I am aware that different parties may find some of these things or even all of these things wrong.
    I do not deny them the rights to mock me for these life choices or criticise them. I do however have a problem with them stopping me making my own choices in life.

    Well you neatly sidestepped my question.

    I don't believe it's possible to both mock & respect someone at the same time.

    Anyway, no matter, let's a-t-d.
