The Issue
In a bid to provide a new revenue stream for VBulletin Domination's Beef-Based Agriculture industry, it has been suggested that filburts could be added to the menu.
The Debate
"The fact is, the filburt population is out of control," says Beef-Based Agriculture spokesperson Violet Hanover. "We have to do something about them anyway, so why not market them as tasty snacks? We could have filburt kebabs, filburt pies, filburt-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 filburt over-population," says random passer-by Fleur O'Bannon, "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."

"I am shocked and appalled!" declared SPCA President Charles O'Bannon. "If anyone needs to be culled, it's us humans. The filburts were here first, remember? We need to take this as a sign to get our industry--agriculture in particular--to back off. The filburt is part of what makes VBulletin Domination a great nation!"
