have you every thought of the torture the cow, the chicken, or the pig goest through to get on your dinner plate.
I am not promoting vegeterianism but I think the system of sloughter has got to get a lot more humane than being hung by legs, slitting the throat, boiling alive to remove the hair and watch them suffocate in their own blood as it gushes out their jugular.
please go to YOU TUBE AND search for PETA then click on the video thats entered by: saerah8080 thanks much

Dont know what country you are in that your slaughter houses are inhumane!
Cattle are delivered a quick blow between the eyes by a bolt gun that kills them instantly. They are then removed to the skinninmg rack gutted and skinned and then sent on for refrigeration prior to inspection and shipment. Sheep and goats are treated the same, except by the Muslim butchers who are required to bleed the animal to death. This is a method that has been used for centuries even in the times that Moses walked the earth and it is part of the religious preparation of meat for that group of people.
With Chickens, they are caught at night caged, trucked to the processor and guiloteened, then are plucked by machine.
No animals are boiled alive in Australia and I doubt it happens in too many other civilized countries either..
We have tough laws about animals and the RSPCA oversee the care of cattle and other animals for the meat chain regularly.

Yes I know how slaughter houses work, and you evidently don't.
They lead the cow up a ramp and tie its legs down to four different posts. Then they kill the animal quite quickly. It isn't inhumane at all. In fact they show a slaughter house on "The texas chainsaw massacre: the beginning" near the beginning of it. They don't hang cows by the legs anymore dear, that was back in the olden days. They hang them by the legs at the end of their death to dry them out though.

The slaughter house we use isnt as humane as the vet would be but it is more civil than the way most animals are taken down in the wild.
FYI The house I use has a sharp strike bolt to the head method.

I have watched the videos before, seen the pictures and read the articles about slaughter houses and I agree with you that they can be brutal. Totally not going into detail about this, but it's wrong in so many ways how they kill the animals. Don't get me wrong...I love hamburgers but I don't love how they're made. Those people must have no soul to treat the animals like that.

If people spent as much time worrying about people as they did animals this world would be a much better place...
