Humans are omnivores. We have some sharp teeth and some flat teeth. Nature intended us to eat animals as well as vegetation.

People who won't eat meat because it's an animal are tools.

PETA is outside my husband's place of business at least once monthly protesting because they slaughter pigs there. What else should they do with them? Set them free?

Imagine the world overrun with pigs and cows and chickens because we just decided not to eat them anymore.

It's called the food chain and it's been around a lot longer than PETA.

To those that will say the methods used to kill animals in slaughterhouses are unethical and mean:

Of course it would be nice if we could just inject them with something that would allow them to drift peacefully off into slumber and never wake up, BUT- Would YOU want to eat something that had been injected with poison? The throats of animals are slit because they bleed out fast and the meat is not tainted when they're finished. Most of the time, the animals are electrocted first to stun them so they don't know their throats are being slit. That's about as humane as you can get it before people start complaining about the quality of the meat. Nobody wants to get sick, but everyone wants to complain about the people that prevent them from getting sick on a daily basis.

With all due respect, it's really not Peta's fault the way your husband and thousands of others chose to earn a living. Maybe Peta does take things too far, but maybe they don't. How can any decent person not be APPAULED at the fur industry, the leather industry, the meat industry, the puppy mill industry, the circus industry, the film industry... oh, and the list goes on. I know plenty of people who earn their living WITHOUT harming others, including animals.

I have seen the inside of a slaughterhouse and the conditions are absolutely appauling. It's just NOT necessary to stomp on chickens or slam bricks on to the head of pigs. Furthermore, most of the time, the pigs are stunned improperly causing them to have heartattacks, and then feel the pain of having their throats slit.

People say that its not the idea of eating meat that they dislike, but its the conditions these animals are subjected to and the workers that subject them to these conditions. But in all honesty, lets think about what kind of person could stomach working in a slaughterhouse... because I know that I couldn't.

Oh, by the way... scientists & doctors have just discovered that on average, a pig has the intelligence of a 3 yr old child.

You are what you eat. And if you support factory farms, you are consuming fear, grief, and rage.

i admire animals yet PETA relatively gets under my epidermis. they have a acceptance for going too far and this is not any diverse. It replaced into no longer the jockey's fault. If it replaced into stumbled on that there replaced into some incorrect-doing on the jockey's area after an examine, then there could be some punishment. yet postponing the jockey top now may be unfair.

Does clubbing a baby seal to death in front of its mother take it too far? Does shoving a metal tube down the throat of a goose to fill it with cornmeal until its liver bursts take it too far? Does debeaking a two-day old chick with a hot knife take it too far?

I am not a strict vegetarian by any means and I don't have anything against eating animal products. What I am abolutely appalled at though, is the methods used to procure these products! It's almost as if the industry was striving to be as cruel as possible.

There are alternatives to the methods used in the factory farming industry...free range farming is one, kosher slaughter is another (according to Jewish tenet, you must inflict as little pain as possible during the slaughter...it is a religious rite). I do NOT eat meat at restaurants. When I do buy meat (only chicken) it is free range, or Amish farmed, as are my eggs. Like I said, I am a meat eater, I just don't wish to contribute to the horrors of factory farming.

lol ..its hard to describe their mentality

check this out...happened couple years ago in my state Minnesota

Wednesday, August 10, 2005

In July, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals' Karin Robinson sent a letter to Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty.

That letter asked Pawlenty to make it illegal for fisherman in Minnesota to catch the state fish, the walleyed pike.

Instead, the Governor's office released the following statement,

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following is a statement from Governor Tim Pawlenty regarding a request from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) to declare walleye off limits to fishing in Minnesota:

“PETA continues to display goofy judgment. Fishing is part of our way of life in Minnesota – moms, dads, kids, and grandparents enjoy beautiful summer and winter days fishing. We care for and enjoy our natural resources the right way. The PETA ‘Fish Empathy Project’ is nutty and misses the mark. Fishing is not, as they claim, the same thing as hooking a dog through the mouth and dragging them behind your car.

“PETA should stay out of Minnesota’s proud fishing lifestyle. Because of their letter, I’m going out for a walleye dinner tonight.”
