Nobody loves animals more than me......but GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK!
 

PETA wants the estimated 9 billion chickens slaughtered each year in the United States to first receive a mixture of gas and oxygen to make them unconscious, a method used in Europe, but one that would require costly overhauls of U.S. poultry slaughterhouses.

you need to understand how chickens are killed in the first place

and no, im no peta supporter, but the way chickens are slaughtered is barbaric

I don't know, they are living creatures ... I suppose it's only fair that if they're going to be born, live and eventually die soley to feed us that the least we could do is not make their last moments on this earth a grab bag of terror. :2 cents:

You think we still need to have verbal argument on this issue?

Any death they have has got to be better than the way they're grown so fast their legs can bend and break. Personally I'm not too worried.. but in an ideal world it would be as Warchild said.

Everyone in America should be required to kill their own food, this way there's none of this bullshit. Mass slaughtering and mass processing of live animals is just barbaric, but PETA is just filled with retards.

Back in SA we use to kill our own chickens. Clean slice at the neck, none of that gas and chemical bs.

This thread maked me crave KFC.....

This is one of my favorite charities. If you want to help the animals, click read and support In Defense of Animals.

why is it barbaric to kill thousands, but its okay to kill one?

the food isnt going to waste from these slaughter houses.. they aren't killing them for fun.

Europeans are a little weird like that. You have to go thru special training to get a fishing license in Germany.

You can't just catch them, you have to beat their heads in so they don't suffocate.

the killing-your-own-food idea is a good one. that way, people wouldnt be so quick to toss away meat, and act like it's nothing...

it would give some realism to the whole idea of food, and up the appreciation levels.

About PETA, they can lick my lefticle. Gasing chickens? Come on... why not stick them into massive krematoriums after we steal their jewellery and clothes?
