For me, I became a vegetarian based off the notion that I consider myself to be very independent. Personally, I could never walk up to a cow and slit its throat so it was strange to me that I was ok with other people doing that for me. I couldn't even watch other people doing it.

So I decided I'd only eat animals that I feel I could kill myself. It's dependent on me knowing what mindset I'm in. I lived in the country for awhile and I would've gladly killed chickens, but when I live in the city, I have a much harder time stomaching things.

I don't look down on people who eat meat, especially people who have killed the animals themselves. I think there needs to be more respect in the killing of animals than what you get on slaughter farms, and hunting can be better. I just can't do it.
