On Splum's point, I remember watching "Faces of Death" as a kid. I wonder where the slaughterhouse video came from given the US slaughterhouse laws. Coulda been anywhere or illegal from US I guess. It was incredibly graphic from what i remember though it was a long time ago. Animals throats cut as they hung upside down on a wire.
Even in the US today chickens can be killed live. They don't have to be stunned like cows. I guess it brings up the question of whether the chicken anticipates its own death. To what degree does an animal experience consciousness? Happy Thanksgiving.
How about hunting? How about seal-clubbing? Canada allows something like hundreds of thousands of seals to be killed every year. How about shooting a deer with a bow and arrow and then walking up to it and cutting its throat so it bleeds to death?
How about keeping animals locked up in cages for people to stare at? Maybe not as bad. Is it?
If you start to think about all the animal cruelty out there well damn, we should all be joining PETA shouldn't we?
Where DOES one draw the line? You gotta respect a vegetarian for their convictions.
Me? I'm about to cook some scrambled eggs. Not much room to talk for me.
No I wouldn't throw a puppy or a donkey off a bridge. What's the point? I've never hunted hunted. I don't even fish. I definitely wouldn't work in a slaughterhouse. I do know however that I must be supporting some cruelty when I eat chicken, beef, venison, ostrich, moose, bear, lamb and so on.
