1. a video like this

made me vegetarian,

working on veganism.

[FLPanhandle]

2. I will never be vegetarian

But I will eat locally raised and non factory slaughterhouse cows, pigs, chickens.

10. Before I supped on my dog, it was good he had a happy life before I killed her.

I felt good that my dog was locally raised in my home and backyard.

4. yes! by the way, Hormel / QPP has turned off their "contact us" form

3. As a person

who grew up on a farm, killed and butchered a lot of animals for food, this just makes me sick.

The fact that these death factories still manage to call themselves "farms" is disgusting. There is nobody in this industry that actually understands or cares about the animals that they are turning into food. To them these pigs are no different than the potatoes you find in a bag.

These places need to be regulated like the industries they are, they sure as shit aren't farms.

5. i did not have to click. my distain for people who dont care grows daily

if i wasnt such a coward i would be a member of a clandestine animal liberation group.

i am a vegetarian two skips from being vegan.

[BlueJazz]

8. I can't click it either. Hurts enough without looking.

6. pigs are smarter than dogs

and just as sensitive. how this can go on mystifies me. and the perverted sickos who work there need to go away. slaughterhouses have a high rate of industrial accidents. wish i could feel bad about that fact.

7. For years, I raised a small number of cattle and hogs....

... they lived like kings in a huge, fenced pasture/woods. They ate the leftovers from a supermarket in an upscale suburb.

When their time came, the last thing they saw was a little pile of lettuce.

I sold them and ate them... but I respected them.

[Luminous Animal]

11. For years I raised a number of dogs. The last they saw was a pile of bones with marrow.

But those dogs lived like kings until I slit their throats and sold them and ate them.

[Bigmack]

12. I'm just not as good a person as you are. nt

[Luminous Animal]

14. They lived like kings until you killed them. Kings no more. You raised them to be chattel.

And fooled yourself and them that they were kings.

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

15. Wait. Which one is it? did you sell them or eat them?

Honesty!

[sharp_stick]

16. Likely both

Growing up on a farm we both ate and sold cattle for beef.

[Luminous Animal]

9. You will get a slew of posts from people who love pigs enough to kill them.

They were totally happy until I killed them! I only eat pigs that were totally happy until the farmer killed them!

Before I supped on my dog, it made me happy that he lived a great life before I killed her.

13. Liberal Media? Hello? Hello?

If there was a LIBERAL media, you'd think this type of shit would be promoted all over the place. Last I saw they were yelling on the cable tv shows and talking about Republicans.

[napkinz]

17. ...

[Big Blue Marble]

18. This will stop when people stop eating pigs.

Please stop.

[BainsBane]

19. Then pigs will become endangered and eventually extinct

Like other wild animals.

[Big Blue Marble]

21. That would be far better than the immense suffering that

millions of these intelligent creatures suffer everyday of their lives.

[melman]

20. I can't believe people are shocked at this. This not an aberration

THIS IS WHAT THE MEAT INDUSTRY IS.

[Big Blue Marble]

22. It only continues to get worse.

People are shocked then go back into their denial. It is too painful for many to face the incredible
suffering that is inflicted on billions of creatures for a few minutes of pleasure.
