Glad to see this research. Fragility or elders is real, and recovery after a fall is significantly worse in the frail elderly population. With that being said, the environmental impact of eating meat, especially beef, affects everyone, not just the individual, and red meat consumption is linked to multiple inflammatory and cardiovascular diseases for the individual. Medical treatment adds cost and pollution to the system, whether that be for surgery after a fall or cardiovascular surgery after an MI. Adding in the ethical treatment of living animals, and there is a strong argument for not eating meat. As a parent and practitioner, I make decisions for the greater whole, and generally not eating meat is just one thing I can do to make the world better for others. Is my choice going to save the world, no, but small changes can help. And I still eat meat, but only occasionally and generally not red meat unless it is wild game. To each their own. Cheers

Dude was getting curb stomped and head smashed in by a blunt object before the shooting... So my question is simple... If a gang of masked men, who outnumber you 7:1, and are literally smashing your head in with "non-lethal" crowd management devices and causing life altering injuries while you are pinned down under thread of death, why wouldn't self defence be justified? I'm not saying the gun was his, or that he had control of it, or that he even fired it, but I am saying if ICE is doing this to people why shouldn't they defend themselves. Black Panthers just got some recruiting. Arm yourselves and openly carry. It's your right so use it.
