VB seriously, what does it matter? we authorize our govt to let farmers put enough antibiotics and roids in the meat so that in 50 years, our immune systems will be fuqd. we eat massed produced garbage every single day so that we can keep our prices low.

if americans gave a shit, we'd demand higher standards but if higher standards means that your beef goes from 2.50/pound to 5/pound, all of sudden, it's doesn't appear to be that cruel.

i'm still trying to figure out why chickens are starting to be as big as turkeys?

personally, if you're going to take a stand, stop funding the industry. switch to those expensive and not widely available brands that do it naturally. find a local farmer, go in halfsies with fam and friends and buy a cow. raise your own chickens.

other than that, i think the outrage is hypocritical and i find it offensive. to be outraged and to do nothing is far worse than being blindly ignorant. to know and do nothing? how much ya wanna bet most of you are gonna eat meat within the next 24 hours? yeah, thought so.

I'm not outraged, I'm sickened quite frankly. I am one of the people that fights against and does not support Agri-business. I go to Farmers Markets whenever I can, I garden, preserve, freeze. Whenever I can get my hands on it via friends I take in venison, game. I buy my eggs from a local woman with chickens.
I know the reality of all this, hell I was raised around it. And most of this state runs on the sweat off a farmers brow. I cannot stomach cruelty to man nor beast. This does make me a hypocrite when I tuck in, this makes me AWARE.

you're aware and?

hardly anyone questions the $ 1 hamburger. the economics that go into making that foodstuff a buck AND profitable. i mean think about it really.

99.9% of us support animal cruelty daily. so now that you're aware...what? i dont mean you specifically VB but for the others who are outraged.

as a reformed vegetarian, i make no bones...or steaks about. i like meat! for me, eating meat is a conscious choice and in the end what i'm saying is, i don't care. if i aint killin it, it's all relative.

no such thing as humanely raising an animal to die for human consumption.

I do see your point, truly, but there is definitely a difference between making something suffer and killing it quickly and efficiently. I enjoy meat as well.
Like the hunter in the woods for example. There are those that will track a deer if the first shot went awry and put an end to things, and others that just let the thing flounder around and die in agony. The first is a real hunter, not the second.
Maybe I'm coming at this from seeing it firsthand. I am simply underscoring the fact that I am very conscious of where my food comes from. And I purposefully go out of my way to feed my family with the best I can. And I will go to a farmer first. Usually ones I know well, for my protein sources.

Those creatures are in the lists of our food chain, you can not deny your needs for food, red/white meat or vegetables it doesn't matter.

Is there any better way to killing to get what you need..?

Since when you guys get so sensitive about it..? it is food for you and me and alike??_ but hell NO.. you guys reacting on the way of KILLING.. Since when killing is ok.. but not in that way..!

What way do you guys are suggesting..??

My mother and her husband had pigs, geese, ducks, chickens, rabbits and goats. And I will tell you right now and quite plainly that there is a more HUMANE way to dispatch an animal. Torturing an animal or taking your own bloody time to kill something because you're a twisted human being is NOT necessary.
I'd never deny my need for sustenance nor remove meat from my diet.
Example, when C took the rabbits out he took them out one by one. Wicked sharp blade, a glancing blow to the back of the head and sliced through. So quickly the rabbit didn't even know what hit it. Now! Between THAT and someone with a large hutch of screaming rabbits with the scent of blood thick in the air, and death firmly in the nostrils of every one of those poor bastards?! Yes, there is definitely a difference.
Did either mode stop me from tucking into an extremely tasty rabbit dinner? NO, but it certainly changed my viewpoints on things alright. And I find that the older I get, the softer I get on some things and the more intolerant I get on others. And that is one of them. There's no need for it.

unnecessary cruelty of the methods of killing

What method are you suggesting then..?

It is slaughter house and it has its own rules to kill and deliver the food we are gladly pay for it..!

Any spiritual or philosophical thoughts behind their actions is unnecessary and believe me is stupid.! They do the dirty jobs for the majority of us..!


It is food and the guys doing it for US shouldn't be blamed for their methods or what ever..!

There is no double standard to me Q, because I do not support that mode of butchery. Come with me, if you will, to a land of many farms. Now, since this area is like this, there are many farmers. Small farmers. Good people that do not run large business that way. And many Amish that do things in the old way. I do not have to procure meat from a market as many do.
My STAND, and my loathing of that method stems not only from seeing it up close and personal growing up, but also from my beliefs as a human being. And I abhor killing for killings sake. YES, I completely understand that it's part of the food chain, and if it runs slower than I do, I will eat it. I get all that. But I am coming at it from my own personal feelings. And as a living, breathing thing that feels pain, the same as you, or I, that it's RUBBISH to drag it out.

You will find that not everyone shares the viewpoint in that Q. As a matter of fact, many think that troops should be pulled from overseas and brought home. To let countries handle their own matters. It is not up to us, the decision making in sending forces when and where.
And there is much within this land that I do not agree with, so where should *I* go exactly?
And because you cannot abide nor agree with the American way of life, that does not make you a terrorist. It makes you a man with his own counsel kept on the matter.

lol!

for the record, Q is correct.

if you're not vegan or vegetarian, you're not entitled to an opinion. i don't care if you go the "less cruel" route or not. as long as you're ok for eating meat that you didn't hunt and kill with your own hands, you're part of the problem.

these animals are raised solely for the purpose of human consumption. what quality of life do they have? they're no better than a head of broccoli except they taste yummier when smothered in gravy and fried in fat 😄
