McVeigh Lukewarm to Vegan Request
Oklahoma City bomber Timothy J. McVeigh, asked by an animal rights group to drop animal products from his diet, says he understands the cause but doesn’t fully support it.
In a response to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, McVeigh also wrote: “I cannot sustain a prolonged intellectual debate on the subject as my time is short, but I suggest hitting Ted Kaczynski up for his opinions on the subject.”
McVeigh even provided the prison address for Kaczynski, the Unabomber. The two were held in the same prison in Florence, Colo., before McVeigh was moved to the federal death row in Indianapolis. His execution is set for May 16.
