Despite the fact that I am vegetarian I dont find anything particulary wrong about killing animals to feed ourselves.
But what I dislike these days is the lack of ethics of killing animals in masses as if they are some kind of a lifeless product.
Animals like for example chickens, cows etc are fed and grown at an industrial enviroment.
There go the days were human grew their animals with effort, kill few for their meat, and let them grow in nature.That time people respected their animals because they lived with them, they did a lot of hard work to keep them, feed them, exploit their offerings.
It was a time when human offered to the animals and the animals offered to humans.
Because these days we live in a hugely consuming society, away from nature, in an industrial age we never have any kind of connection with nature.And we never see animals the right way anymore.We only see them as consuming products, almost as lifeless beings that fill our stomachs.They are grown in extremely narrow cages, fed up by whatever artificial, even genetically altered, and slaughtered in masses as if they are vegetables or something.
I wonder if any of you have ever held a real brown hen, or a small chicekn in your arms.Almost none.Only a few.And I wont be surprised if none of you have.
And unfortunately we cant change this because there is no choice.There are too many consumers.To many humans to be fed.This mass slaughtering,genetical alterations etc are needed to keep consumers satisfied.
Where is the human-nature connection?

I try as much as possible to buy from Amish markets. Their free range chickens and pigs maybe smaller but they taste much better.

I have. Fed cows (non-food cows), horses, etc. But chicken is good food, and we gotta do what we gotta do.

Today i actually looked at a PETA flyer a friend showed me about how poor the quality of KFC\'s chicken are and how the process goes. Man the visuals were F*ing sick. Personaly it sounded pretty beliveable. I dont take out chicken that much anymore but i prefer the greasy popeyes. Yuuuuum, so greasy but so good. :D

But you ate my beef. :laughing:
PETA = Just trying to get attention.

I raised chickens and pigs where I came from! I slaughtered them too! I felt bad....but I was REAL hungry. And they tasted GREAT! :D

Animals die in the harvestation of vegetables too. Is Peta\'s beef with the fact that they are being killed or the conditions that they live in. I\'m pretty sure that if I wore a fox fur jacket from foxes that died of old age or ate a drumstick from a chicken that was free range they would still throw paint and/or have a fit.
I have no problems with vegetarians or vegans. I just don\'t think its as natural as someone who eats meat because humans are by nature omnivores. Still, If I don\'t attack you with the fact that I like the occasional turkey burger don\'t attack me with the fact that you don\'t and how much you want me to stop. Peta disgusts me sometimes. They are an extremist group and they give real vegetarians and vegans a bad name.
Why do they value animal life more than human life? That baffles me. I\'m almost positive that if they could legally kill other people to save the lives of some animals they would.

I grew up on a farm. Had chickens, ducks, geese...also took care of my neighbor\'s horses, goats and cows. Only by being around these animals do you learn how incredibly stupid they are. (with the exception of maybe horses...) I\'m not saying that killing them en masse is justified for this reason alone... but it made it a lot easier when I had to kill them to feed our family.
I also prefer to eat organic meats, there\'s a food co-op market near me that has locally-grown organic veggies & stuff. They used to carry really good chickens, but too many f*cking vegans started working there and whining about it. Now the place is full of women who don\'t shave wearing peta t-shirts who comment on my leather shoes. So f*ck them, I\'ll go to the supermarket.

I would eat a vegan if it was legal. :p

Just remembered this, if it\'s old then I apologise.

Maddox rules! Hahaha

He\'s brilliant, more rage than a city sized bull in a matchbox sized china-shop.
PETA don\'t seem to like him though!
Seriously though, I think PETA rank alongside the anti-abortionists who stand outside clinics shouting at women in their hardest times about being murderers. If I was there I\'d certainly be a murderer and they wouldn\'t be shouting much longer.
:mad:

Animal racism.Thats a new.
Anyways its completely illogical for every human to stop eating meat.Besides its a human right.You cant force a tiger to become a vegetarian either.But treating animals the way they do nowadays and only as products for consuming is something I cant agree with.
If I was with those PETA(whatever) I would have asked to change the way of treating animals in cattle raising but not try prevent meat consuming.
-
I dont think the PETA group are vegitarian they do just as you stated I think try and change the treatment of animals prior to wapping their heads off and tenderly eating a beautiful med-rare hunk of t-bone...... sorry got carried away
-
I too grew up on a farm but we didn\'t have animals (we did but long ago). I\'m off the farm now but I see nothing wrong with eating animals. By nature, we are omnivores. We need meat to survive. I mean whats the difference between a lion brutally shredding its victim and humans slitting the throat of a cow? We are animals too and we are stalked and killed for food but thats ok but when we kill animals for food, its wrong. I have no problem with vegetarians but PETA I really hate. I hope they all choke on their kurds and whey.
