Because in this scenario we are not just disallowing meat for some people. We are utterly outlawing the production and distribution of meat. The analogy simply does not work.
Also, if R rated movies are legal for some people, that means they’re regulated. Outlawing something puts it on the unregulated black market. People will be buying unsafe meat.
If you sell outlawed videos (like snuff films or rape films) you can go to jail for that. Or even for possessing them. That’s a better analogy than R-rated movies which are not actually outlawed.
But you didn’t answer my question. How far are you willing foe the law to go? Do you want meat eaters to go to jail? To merely be fined? What about meat producers and distributors?
Good analogy, yeah, meat should be treated like child porn.
Outlawing something puts it on the unregulated black market. People will be buying unsafe meat.
Meat isn’t addictive. If meat gives people food poisoning, then people won’t eat it. That’s a good thing.
So your answer is that you do want meat eaters to be arrested by the police, tried in court, and sent to prison.
I have IBS-D there are over 300 foods I cannot eat or else my intestines get shredded and bleed out immense amounts of blood. I lost over 60 lbs of weight and currently weigh 130lbs as a 5.11 male. Doctors have tried everything and after 3 years they say i will just have to live with this.
Some of the only food I can eat without issue is meat. I wish it wasnt this way, I’d love to become atleast vegetarian, but if I did I would die.
Should I be put to jail or forced to do community service in your hypothetical?
Ooh, you’re like dracula! Dracula is a vampire, and he has to drink the blood of innocents to sustain his immortal body or he’ll die. So his life centers around violating other people in a bloody and vaguely sexual cycle of violence. This is a classic Morbius sitution. It’s a trolley problem, except that you’re the only person on the first track, and you can pull the lever to switch the trolley onto a track with dozens of innocents.
