Phillip Questions Hardcore Vegan on His Militant Views Against Dairy Farmers | This Morning

milk butter cheese three generations of family but you find that this cat the campaigning over the last few months has got definitely much more intense you've noticed well for us personally we're not really you know we've got about getting on with farming and doing what we do and then it's just kind of everything changed about a week again when we just put a nice post out on Facebook what was the post we had triplets for the first time ever on our in our farm car trip after it and and what was the reaction good for the first day lots of like nice comments and you know it's just a fund you know little story and then all sudden one vegan quite nasty comments appeared on there and before we knew it it just over the next 24-48 hours it just erupted into this thousands upon thousands of views and vegan comments of really really horrible and also quite threatening towards you and your own family it just got worse and worse it was a few of our supporters and and customers who put nice comments on their about their cars to begin with and there was abuse aimed at them for buying our products and then it just got worse and worse and what words like murderers rapists you know all of these kind of things started coming on to our feet well you have fused those words the farmers can be compared to rapists okay so I want to I want to just publicly say that I condemn any death threats and any name-calling that's not the way I advocate but I think we need perspective in this situation now the dairy industry are responsible for separating families when these calf's are born they are taken away from their mother okay that milk will be given to human beings okay now those cars if they were born a boy they'll be bulk gunned in the head sometimes on their first day of life okay and the female caste will suffer the same fate as their mother which is forcible impregnation they're not getting pregnant naturally forcefully a fist into the cow's anus okay they harvest the semen from a ball and we all know how they do that and then they inject that semen into the cow okay and then when she's pregnant they take her calf away from her and this is why they call it you know vegans we might call it kidnap and when she can't produce her milk anymore she's murdered for her body okay a mother and so the rape is the insemination well it's forcible impregnation isn't it if it was anyone its the victim if it was a human being would call it what what would we call it it's not human being its cow it's forcible it's sexy so just want to check and just being absolutely sure there is no difference in in in in the in the laws of nature for you then there would be between human and animal form what we've sexually violating a sentient being just like us yeah they experience consciousness just like us we're sexually violating them against their will that is in moral they cannot give consent for this so how do you answer that then as as far most I think it's important to talk about the terminology here because one thing that's been very apparent to us so so one of our posts has inadvertently gone viral and this is what has made the tabloids and global news this week and if you look through the thousand or so comments on this post there are three words that are consistent in a lot of these comments from vegan activists rape murder and slavery okay what happens to a cow what happens cows when they cannot produce milk anymore for you address all aspects being the sentence and so these three words rape murder and slavery are consistent now these are words that first of all are fairly inaccurate when applied to our farming practices rape is an act of sexual predation murder is an act of one human being purposefully killing another human being slavery is the enslavement of one human being by another human being now I think that the use of these words whilst so you're playing word games let's do no not let's talk about the act you're taking of animals lives against their will what is that what is that is that moral to take an animal's life against their will call it murder call it taking a lot an animal's life against their will okay how is that moral it's not humane to do what I just talked about the terminal animals rape each other in the wild - we cannot point to nature and say that that's immoral okay we're a civilized society to take someone's life against their will is savagery actually actually I will you agree do you think it's not my place I think when you you you have to look at nature you have to look at the human being you have to look at the last two hundred thousand years and then and how we've evolved and what we've become we have billions of people in this world and we have everyone has to be fed we as human beings eat meat and vegetables like many other species two hundred and seventy odd species on this planet eat meat of which all of those animals very often actually eat another animal in a far worse way than actually we do you don't need to just of just biologically and and in our development as a species we've developed we've met we've we've grown k9t we're well it was very flat and blunt like a cow's I think the molars at the back but the canines have developed to work to to meet its by necessary to eat to do that so why have I developed teeth to do this because you can eat an animal doesn't make it moral to do so okay we can be healthy and put a healthier eating plant-based foods this day and age don't look a hundred thousand years ago when we had to do it to survive this day and age it's unnecessary innocent beings inside of a gas chamber or into a slaughterhouse just one final thing if I can what about those long-standing farming communities the communities that have been built up around farming all of the other people involved in fire when we're looking at issues of injustice we always look at it through the eyes of the victim not the oppressor okay animals are having their throats slashed open for an unnecessary reason okay farmers are sending them on trucks to slaughterhouses we don't need them to survive or to be healthy we can eat plants okay alright thank you thank you you
