Answer 1

In the states we see some animals as pets not food. But in other places of the world they look at the same animals differently. People from India think we are cruel to eat beef. It is a cultural issue. Some Asian people eat canines. Japanese love whale meat. French people eat horses. Native Africans eat monkeys. It is cultural. You can't change the mores of a whole culture, nor should we try to. What looks like slaughter to me or you would simply look like people butchering meat to another culture. Who are we to judge?

Answer 2

I support horse slaughter. I know I will get a lot of thumbs down for this. Now they've banned slaughter....where are the horses that would have gone to the slaughter now? Are they running fat and happy in a field somewhere like a page out of black beauty? No. They are rotting in pens because there are not enough homes for them. If I had horses could I send them to the slaughter? No. Are the methods they use cruel? Maybe, but they need to definitely have regulations as far as the actual slaughter.
Tell me this what is a better fate: to be dispatched quickly when you have no home, or to starve to death and linger for months because there is no room anywhere.
This is the situation that the banning slaughter have created. The jerk of the heart string is to want to ban it, but the well thought out conclusion is to allow it with regulations in place to ensure humane conditions.
Oh, and I am an animal welfare activist. Even I can see the problem this has created.

Answer 3

by fact there is extra life like political leverage in conversing out against hen slaughter than there is against abortion. you have a extra constructive threat of shutting down an industry via protesting hen slaughter than you do combating abortion (which takes a very good courtroom decision). PETA and different animal rights communities (e.g. Rainbow Coalition) could no longer provide a rahts a*r^se approximately animals, its the political leverage they're after!!!! So there is approach to their insanity!

Answer 4

It seems to me that rather than doing any research on the subject, you just watched a video that someone made on youtube and they claimed it to be the truth. You need to really study this and do some research, then go to a forum, like horsecity.com where they discuss this stuff. You are on a Q&A website here, and you did not post a question.

I encourage you to check out horsecity.com 's bulletin board as this subject frequently comes up. Search for old discussions. If you ask the question again you will get lambasted for bringing it up. There are hundreds of posts on this subject.

Answer 5

People must have not liked the graphics or something. I still can't believe all of the horror animals have to deal with. Slaughter houses, abuse, neglect, dogs being used as shark bate, animals tortured for entertainment @ circuses etc. it is HORRIBLE! It is even worse for animals that arent cute and cuddly. I read this story Steve Irwin wrote about how something got shocked and hurt and abused. Then it ends w/ " Know one would care about her thought because she was a crocodile." It just sounds so sad. Why cant people be nice to animals?

Answer 6

I agree with "Brindle" up-above.
There are some people who take great care of animals and then there are people who should not even look at animals that is how bad they take care of animals. I have taken in dogs that were sooo matted up with knots and smell soooo bad that I called the groomer only after a couple of hours of having them to get them looked after. Those people should be charged! I believe in slaughter houses you have to get rid of unwanted animals somewhere. A dog getting mistreated most people look the other way (how many times did you see a dog in a locked car?) but a farm animal everyone feels so much worse for them(rabbits in cages, chickens in cages). But I do not believe in cruelty to animals. There should be a law that the slaughter houses have to follow. They should get punished for treating the animals badly. But you can not say we should speak against slaughter what do we do for food and what do we do with the unwanted animals. We all can't do what the city people do (drop your cats and dogs off at our farms!! ) animals are raised for food and they need to be killed at a slaughter house and not to be dumped somewhere they are not wanted!

Answer 7

i agree about the truth needing to be shown about all slaughter of animals (even though i have a soft spot for horses). people need to wake up about the horrors these poor defenseless animals go through. sometimes they are fully aware of what is going on. it is horrible that they are torn and cut to pieces while fully awake. people close their eyes to cruelty because it is easier than dealing with the problem.

Answer 8

There are appropriate venues and forums on Yahoo and the rest of the web to post your view and comments on this and any subject.

This is not one of them.

This is a question and answer forum and Yahoo retains the right to have it remain as such. No, it is not censorship.

Answer 9

I think that it was unfair that you were given a violation for that. People should be more open minded. Sometimes the truth is ugly, but we should know these things, and not stick our heads in sand. Something should be done about it. Yes, it is censorship.
