I saw that headline somewhere else. I'm not sure what I think, really...

I find it funny that they decided to end their neutraility over a practice hundreds of years old.

So does this include crab, shrimp & other crustaceans?

Perhaps they''ll offer free opioids with every lobster purchase?

I've been steaming live crabs, Maryland style most of my life and doing crawfish boils for as long as we've been able to get live ones.

Somebody needs to get a job or a life! PETA= People Eating Tasty Animals. There are crazies out there who say plants feel pain. Give me a break.

When i was young dad would bring home crabs for mom to boil...i could not be in the same house as those poor crabs being boiled alive...and the smell was so bad like fear and death bound together. I would run and stay out in the open field beside the house til dinner had been clear away and the house aired out. I have no idea why they were surprised when i became a vegetarian after being away to college for a year and half.
