In last Saturday’s TVP, a few stories were shared about the joys of crossing the border when guards find out you’re vegetarian, and I thought maybe this was just bad luck, but then I saw “You are the Homegrown Terrorist Threat” and I’m not so sure. Granted, border crossing issues are by definition pretty orthogonal to domestic terrorism, but the sentiment is the same, especially if you read some of the criteria of things to watch out for. While the sample brochures mention animal rights and environmental extremism as considerations, I don’t think it’s too much of a stretch for “not eating meat” to be considered “extremism” in the eyes of some people… On the bright side, we now have something in common with the infidel property rights advocates. Er, unless they’re ranchers.
The only things I terrorize are my salads
