Vegans Life Sentence
Should the choice to become a vegan be a personal choice or parental choice?
Vegan parents in Georgia were sentenced Wednesday to life in prison after their 6-week-old son died of malnutrition.
The baby, Crown Shakur, weighed only 3.5 pounds. He’d been fed mostly soy milk and apple juice. Vegans typically do not consume animal products.
Defense lawyers say the first-time parents did the best they could for their son while adhering to the strict lifestyle of vegans. They said Sanders and Thomas did not realize the baby — who was born in a bathtub at their home — was in danger until minutes before he died in April of 2004.
There’s a difference between being a vegan and being stupid.
Whatever happened to breastmilk? Or do we consider ourselves animals?
And WTF were parents doing giving a 6-week old child apple juice? They were obviously just space cadets anyway – bad parents in general, it had nothing to do with their dietary choice – they just forgot to use their brains.
They SHOULD go to jail – stupid people who are clueless about starving a freaking babyneed to be off the streets so they don’t harm themselves or others. How did they ever manage to function on a daily basis? They must have needed help getting dressed in the morning – I bet someone was there to wipe their a$$e$ too – HOW COULD YOU NOT KNOW YOUR BABY IS STARVING?? is the anorexic look really that in-style now that they thought less than 4 pounds was normal??
