No .. I still think you didnt get it. Him eating it or not does not matter and it does not constitute to endorsing something. He actually says he doesnt do it for health reasons.
"I endorse this!" means "I think this is a good thing, and so should you."

You can not take literal meaning of title every time.
* Has he eaten beef or not?
YOU have skipped this part conveniently!
* Is he supporting beef-eating or opposing?
My understanding is he is supporting..
That's all
This is a very big world!

thamiz,
I'll try and explain -
The essence of the whole thing is this:
'What is in my plate or your plate is our own business and not the Govt.'s"
That said, your questions ..
> Has he eaten beef or not?
Yes. So ? How does it matter in regards to people's liberty and freedom ? Again that is not endorsing eating beef ..
> Is he supporting beef-eating or opposing?
Neither. One's own choice.
> My understanding is he is supporting..
I believe that's not the case.

Let us agree to disagree on this "interpretation" and believe as our own interpretation is the "correct one" and move on!

Frankly there is nothing to "interpret". He is not endorsing. He is just saying it should be left to one's choice and govt. should not dictate the menu.

He is telling it is individual freedom to eat beef. Government should not tell "not to eat beef". That means beef-eating should be allowed and it is none of government damn business to tell "not to eat beef"!

Correct, but that doesn't mean he is "endorsing beef eating". If anything, he is endorsing free speech.

Wow, you're so punk. god bless, and for my part, I may be a bit of a prick, but I reckon I can probably contain my rage better than a low life like you. if you can't contain your emotions, stay away from internet dear.

Don't know why you are responding to my comment - it was not addressed to you, was it? I was responding to bill4u
