Retarded article.

I'd imagine a hungry baby would cry quite a bit signifying to the parents that something isn't quite right. Worry free parents are a no no.

Really sad because they're going to prison for life and maybe they deserve it, but it doesn't seem what they did was out of malice. This is a case where a good public flogging is in order, then let them go.

It may seem like their being vegan is unrelated but I have found that there is a disturbing number of vegans who are somewhat insane in recent years. I don't know if it's because they are vegans or if they are vegans because they are crazy or what, but when I read the local coop newsletter here, there are some real nutballs. Like people who complain that cheese should be at the opposite end of the store so cheese vapors from 10 feet away in wrapped plastic containers don't contaminate olives in the oliver bar and thereby ruin their vegan diet and force hormones and animal by products into their digestive system. I'm not really exaggerating on that one either.
A "normal" vegan would do enough research to assure that they and their baby are adequately nourished. Unfortunately there's that nutter subsect of the vegan population that is just totally bat**** crazy who are paranoid about cheese vapors or germs at the doctor and think if they just eat lentil beans and nothing else, they will live to be 1000 years old and get to visit a crab nebula in a space bubble.

Uhh... the child weighed 3.5 lbs at 6 weeks. "Dirty hippies" has no more to do with this than does veganism. If they couldn't tell that something was drastically wrong...

Why wouldn't they breast-feed the baby if they're vegan? The kid could've gotten all the nutrition he needed :|

yeah, agreed
At six weeks old he weighed just 3 1/2 pounds and was so emaciated, doctors could count his bones through his skin.

3 1/2 pounds? wtf
If someone wants to be a vegan, go for it. But they clearly screwed up if they starved their son.

Ummm because soy milk isn't good for a growing baby, get a clue. It definetely has a lot to do with them being vegan simply because had she been breast feeding it - it would of survived. But they're probably so freaking retarded and deluded that somehow they equated a mothers milk as animal product. Why else do vegans look down on milk in general?

There's always nutballs in any group. Mostly because nutballs need and seek groups to belong to because they have weak minds and have to apply themselves to some form of extremism in order to find self-meaning.
Most vegans are in it for the healthy lifestyle aspect. The same reason normal healthy fitness people watch their own diets and are in the gym several times a week. It's not fear of death that drives them, but the desire to be healthy and make the most out of life.

Life in prison? Seems harsh to me. They obviously have mental issues.
P.S. What does being vegan have to do with a 6 week old baby anyway? It's not as if you'd normally be feeding them a side of beef at that age.
