I personally am too lazy to be a hunter/gather', So, I guess I'm glad I don't have to be.

F' PETA, Bless the butcher and fire up the grill.

Proud omnivore,

I love meat and eggs, and will continue to eat it, but after watching that, kinda made me sick. Some of the things that were being done to the animals WAS cruel. I could not imagine working in a place like that.

People are conditioned. We watch so much death and destruction everyday, TV, video games etc. we tend to think death comes easy and somehow instant. Bang bang, shoot 'em up they are dead. Nice neat little hole, a trickle, then a puddle of blood. The reality of killing is so far from their sanitary, misconceived assumptions it's shocking to them.

The evolution of soccer moms is great. They live in their own tidy little world, clean hands and empty minds. Dinner is something they pop in the microwave or pick up from the meat counter in it's clean and tidy sanitary package. No blood no gore, the butcher is the guy in the back in a nice white coat running the shiny stainless steel machine. No half a beef hanging on a hook anymore next to the butcher. She goes home worried that her hamburger is getting too warm and will make her Billy sick, goes online to learn how to cook it to the proper temp and prevent cross contamination.

Never once does she consider how her burger was processed for her. Out of sight out of mind. It's easier that way, fits well in her tidy, perfect little world. She pays someone else to do her dirty work for her, so she can watch Ellen or Oprah instead of killing, gutting, skinning and grinding Billy's burger. No urine, feces or blood to clean and dispose of, no worries until..........Oprah or Ellen broadcast a program that stirs her emotions.

Look at all these poor animals in the slaughterhouse waiting to be murdered. The poor California cows that talk and tell jokes on TV commercials. How can people just kill those poor creatures, drag them off with a winch, hang them from a hook, plunge a knife in to them and let their bowels flow out on the floor. She's appalled, her friends saw the show they grow enraged at Starbucks over coffee. Something needs to be done, they Join PETA. Listens to other nut cases that have insights into the minds of cattle and visualize thoughtful animal handling equipment.

Enough is enough she goes vegan and starts to criticize those she has been paying all her life to do her dirty work. She can no longer differentiate her pet from food for her family or her pet from her family. Killing cows for her family to eat seems like killing little Billy himself. Horrible just horrible, she needs to get Meryl Streep to testify before Congress to stop this insanity.

Mean while little Billy is in the other room shouting with glee as he scores his billionth KILL in Grand Theft Auto and is rewarded with a newly unlocked weapon that will Kill another billion even faster.

You did what you had to do, and that's why humans are omnivores. However in my opinion meat is strictly a survival food.

My proof. If you have an all meat diet, you will become very sick and will die from it (millions of Americans are currently suffering from heart disease due to a poor diet/lack of exercise). However on strictly vegetable/fruit/grains/nuts diet you will live a long and abundant life. Don't BS me and say you will miss "essential" proteins from not consuming meat. You can gain the same proteins from vegetable. Beans and rice is the perfect substitute for that protein we "need" from meat

I do agree that the animals that are raised for food should not be considered pets and be treated as such.


Shoot, the last pig I raised I named porkchop, pinched him every now and then to see when he was ready to be buchered :laugh: And my last steer was named vittles. Nothing tastes like home raised.

But you also need certain b vitamins that are found in meat. I agree we are omnivores but we need a complete diet not just fruits or vegetables or meat but all.

All of the animals in this video are highly modified domestic breads that would not exhist if it were not for man and the meat industry. They barely resemble the animals they decend from... and they're tasty.

Bred to eat or not, the animals have a nervous system and pain receptors just like you or I. It may be a fine line between taking their lives and torturing them to death... but there IS a line. I'm not about to run out and start hunting to put food on my table (I wouldn't have the first idea as to how), but there has got to be a more humane way to get Bossie the cow from the feed lot to the styrofoam container at the grocery store.

i hesitate to even get into this but here goes.... Before i came to work as i do in the hospital here i have spent 12 years running boilers and working in food factories in particular meat packing houses etc. The people who put that particular vid out are advocates for vegan diets etc. They roam the planet 'undercover' looking for things like that to film. They gather vid from around the world and claim its from here in the usa and it really isnt. I wont say there arent bad plants here in the states because there are. What you saw in those vids is such extreme cases. The sad thing is most of that footage isnt recent. I saw most of that stuff 5 years ago and a animal rights movement in chicago and it was passed as european then!!! My point is i can show you just as many good farms as there are bad. Actually way more good then bad....
I do ask though if you think there is a more humane way to get the food to the table i would love to hear examples or ideas you have...even the supposed good farms would be considered animal cruelty.

I was thinking more about vitamin b2 and vitamin b5. High concentrations of both found in calves liver, yes I know that vitamin b5 can be found in mushrooms and certain vegies but not in as high of a concentration. We have canine teeth for a reason...

Our pathetic excuse of our two TINY triangle teeth shouldn't even have the privilege of even being called canines.

THESE are canines

Google Image Result for http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l74/brightln/huuhuh.jpg

Now compare those to ours

http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl...n0gGl1vi4Cw&page=1&ndsp=41&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0

Even our ape friends, who we share the most similar teeth structure with, has a diet that is almost all vegetarian. An extremely small portion of their diet contains smalls insect, small animals, etc. Even though they have much larger canines than we do, they consume significantly less animal protein than humans

Yes. First, raise the animals ethically. Free range, no hormones, grass fed. As for the dirty work, take out the old rifle and put a bullet in the animals head or heart. Instant death. That is the most humane way in my eyes.
