I eat meat, but I understand a lot of domesticated animals suffer needlessly at the hands of the meat industry. I applaud anyone who tries to see that animals aren’t abused.

Have you ever tried to discuss human ways to slaughter cows, pigs, chickens and baby seals with a PETA member?

They want to kill them with old age. The meat is tough by then.

Yeah, i eat meat too, but i eat it so rare that my brother tells me that it is not even dead, so that can not be quite as bad as what most people do.

You understand nothing, that does not happen.

The "meat industry" does not do domesticated animals, it does farm animals. And if feeding and caring for an animal from birth is so horrible, why are we trying to do that for welfare recipients?

We kill people a lot more painfully than we do our food. Electrocution, hanging are both horribly painful and humans are aware they are going to die. Of course we do kill MILLIONS of humans every year who are not aware that it is coming by burning they alive in strong salt solutions or pulling their bodies apart while they are alive with suction devices in abortions.

But animals we kill very cleanly and quickly. Torture we reserve for babies.

PETA are fools on a mission, don't join them.

“.. I understand a lot of domesticated animals suffer needlessly at the hands of the meat industry.”

What does the meat industry do? Play Lady GaGa music loud? Do they shoot bullets at the feet of the animals and order them to dance?

Or have you just been reading some PETA crap?

Making animals suffer would create extra work for the meat industry - they aren’t going to do anything that adds to costs - theirs or yours. Buy a clue.
