Don't get me started. Cows with attitude are the first to go, let me 
assure you.
Of course, steers have every reason to have an attitude, they just no 
longer have
all the equipment.

As a transhumanist, I'm opposed to killing innocent mammals, because it 
sets a bad
precedent. If an SI decides to eliminate humans based on economic 
utility, Humans
have already created ample precedent.

We might be slighty ore justified isn killing "guilty" mammals: those 
that in our considered
opinion are causing more harm than good.
