Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

No, there's usually cultural and/or historic reasons for why the line is drawn where it is
And we don't live in those times anymore. Why should we do what a culture tells us to do? Just because it's culture and/or tradition? That's a pretty dark path to traverse.
You know, you are right. I may start eating dog just right now. Thank you
Well I'm glad you've given up on making bad faith arguments and realized you don't have any good ones. At least everyone who reads this can see how foolish you look.
First, i was just kidding, but on a serious note, Im sorry if this offends you in anyway, but i eat animals and i dont feel any remorse about it. I dont have any excuses cause i dont believe its a bad thing.
Eating animals is wrong for a number of reasons, mostly environmental.
But I'm sure as hell not going to be left out if everyone else is doing it. Meat is delicious and culturally enforced. I have enough personal protests that I don't need to add this big one on top.
I do think we can and should do more to limit meat consumption, but it's politically impossible. The amount of meat we eat isn't normal or healthy. Once a week is much more reasonable.
But I bet 9 out of 10 of your nearest restaurants serve meat in most of their dishes.
