93. All animals raised for food...
Edited on Mon Oct-10-05 03:09 PM by triguy46
are ultimately victimized. Whether treated bad or good, when they enter the killing floor, it ain't pretty. If you eat meat, then you must accept the fact of the ultimate cruelty, doesn't matter if treated like pets or not, ultimately you have decided that their life is less important than yours, so they are killed.

don't get me wrong, I had roast beef yesterday, fried chicken (not KFC) last week. But lets not get over emotional about "nice" farms and corporate farms. There aren't enough "nice" ones out there, and when its all said and done, the chicken is going to have its head stuck in a funnel, decapitated and left upside down for the blood to drain. Is that any easier if they were considered pets? I think that is a halfway commitment and only offered to make the human feel better. The chicken is still in the frying pan, after all.
