Why is sugar not vegetarian?

I define vegetarian as not involving animal death, and bone-char from cows is usually used to whiten sugar. Is Refined Sugar Vegan?.

Oh, god. That's it, I'm only taking brown sugar.

Are you a vegetarian or a vegan?

I am trying to eliminate all products with gelatin/glue right now, and it is so much harder than I thought it would be. Buying shoes has become increadibly difficult.
