After years of banging the same Meat Is Murder drum, Morrissey changed his track rather spectacular recently, to add a little seasoning of outrage to the dish, in a Q&A session published on his own fan site, and undoubtedly in no way motivated by the fact that he hadn't said anything openly stupid or provocative in a while, and people might have started to forget how tasteless he can be:
"I see no difference between eating animals and paedophilia. They are both rape, violence, murder. If I'm introduced to anyone who eats beings, I walk away. Imagine, for example, if you were in a nightclub and someone said to you, 'Hello, I enjoy bloodshed, throat-slitting and the destruction of life,' well, I doubt if you'd want to exchange phone numbers."
Which of course begs a lot of questions: the least, but arguably most intriguing is what sort of nightclubs Morrissey is going to. We can probably fully admit people to start wearing T-Shirts proclaiming their carnivore-tendencies, in order to halt any potential meeting with Morrissey in the first place.
