If you can get through the article's pernicious nonsense, there are some salient points, albeit the result of confusion on the part of the author. It's too bad that Latimer's presentation is so obnoxious, as even when he raises what might be valid points, he makes you want to disagree with him.

So here is an even more modest proposal than roasting Fido: Try eating only what animals you are willing to kill with your own hands. Dogs were bred to be companion animals; pigs and cows are raised as food. Beyond the environmental impacts of meat production there is a basic ethical issue involved.
