[DieHard the Hunter]

I enjoy chicken, not likely to become vegan anytime soon.

That said, I’ve also seen what happens to surplus male chicks: they get shredded in a machine, using a process called “masceration fragmentation”. Apparently it is relatively humane. But what an ugly way to go, ay! Dropped into a shredder en-masse. The resultant “product” gets made into fertilizer. Yuck.

I’ve also seen how chickens are “handled” en-route to slaughter. It’s ugly, brutal and unpleasant.

I’d feel better about our “chicken” habit as a Society if there were a more humane way of indulging it. As matters currently stand, it forces me to be something of a living contradiction: a person who is humane and seeks to protect animals, and a shameless carnivore.

[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel. Proverbs 12:10

Compassionate carnivorism is grossly underrated. I salute you. (Pass the fried chicken!)
