Quantcast Vegetarian StarImus In The Morning

Russell Simmons recently chatted with Don Imus on Imus In The Morning and the two spent a considerable time discussing Simmons’ veganism. Here’s a little bit from the conversation.

Simmons: It’s one of the worst karmic disasters in human history. Fifteen billion suffering farm animals.

Imus: People, who, for example, go get a big ol’ bucket of chicken. The way those chickens are housed and slaughtered and tormented. I really think you’re taking on the karma of the chicken. These are tormented, tortured animals. They can feel pain just like you can.

One interesting twist: Imus is a vegan too. He’s also a cattle rancher. Watch the clip to hear Simmons’ response to the idea of Imus’ support of humane slaughter of animals.
