The Issue
In a bid to provide a new revenue stream for Vindicated Lies's Beef-Based Agriculture industry, it has been suggested that unicorns could be added to the menu.
The Debate
"The fact is, the unicorn population is out of control," says Beef-Based Agriculture spokesperson Larry Shiomi. "We have to do something about them anyway, so why not market them as tasty snacks? We could have unicorn kebabs, unicorn pies, unicorn-on-a-sticks--the possibilities are endless! Let's not pass up this golden opportunity to provide a feast, if you will, for our economy."
[Accept]
"I agree that something needs to be done about unicorn over-population," says random passer-by Freddy Trax, "but eating them? That's kind of gross. Let's just shoot the ones we have to and shovel their bodies into ditches like normal."
[Accept]
"I am shocked and appalled!" declared SPCA President Beth McGuffin. "If anyone needs to be culled, it's us humans. The unicorns were here first, remember? We need to take this as a sign to get our industry--agriculture in particular--to back off. The unicorn is part of what makes Vindicated Lies a great nation!"
This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.
