Threw up after sick slaughterhouses video

That's how it goes most the time. Realistically, just about everything from a grocery store, Walmart, whatever was loaded with drugs, force fed, and killed cruelly. It amazes me that it's not common knowledge.

Its best to be a vegetarian.

I feeled the same when I first time watched these stuff,, but I understant that worlds work this way, no need to worry it will continue and you can't stop it,, so you better ignore this

How the animals are treated and killed varies greatly depending on where you are in the world and who is in charge. Sadly some of them suffer horrendously.

I don't think that everyone needs to stop eating meat but I do think that the whole system needs a shake up. Consumers need to vote with their wallets and demand better quality meat and better practices from the suppliers. It benefits everyone.

The best thing to do is raise and kill your own meat. I do this as much as I can. We raise chickens for both eggs and meat. That way I know it had a lovely chilled out life roaming my land, and had a quick and painless death at a reasonable age. We also raised a pig once for meat but it was a huge amount of effort to do so I wouldn't recommend it unless you're really prepared to commit to it. They are also much harder to kill humanly than chickens, so you'd have to be prepared to buy equipment for this.

I get that they are sometimes tortured. But at the end of the day what animal doesnt die a horrific death? You think a wildebeest would not cry if it was being taken down by a lion.

are you sure you weren't just watching vegan propaganda? vegans love showing videos of animals being "tortured" and being slowly killed, more often than not though those videos are either staged or coming from third world countries where they have little to no laws or regulations.

first world countries have strict regulations on how to process animals quickly, efficiently and painlessly as possible. of course abuse still goes on however, in any industry working with animals there will always be abuse because of shitty people living in the world and the only way to stop that is to advocate for stricter laws and harsher punishments for these people who do go out and abuse animals.

here are some videos from western countries who process livestock as painlessly as possible -

They're stunned and don't feel any pain, there you go now rest your mind

Don't know if you have it, but free-range is the better meat.

Dude they probably put up the most horrific videos they can find. I know in the UK that there are strict laws about animal cruelty. I imagine it's the same way in America, and for the most part people abide by them.

The meat and animal products industry has a lot of ethical issues. I don't know if I have much to say that others haven't already said, but one thing to note that bothers me immensely is that some of the creatures commonly used for slaughtering, such as pigs, are highly intelligent and capable of higher level functioning, empathy, and social lives. In fact, pigs are the fifth-most intelligent animal in the world (more intelligent than dogs), capable of playing video games better than chimps and performing a variety of more complex tasks (again, at a level comparable to primates).

It's depressing to know the degree of awareness these animals have of their circumstances and the effect it has on them.

Which is not to say I don't have empathy for the inhumane slaughter of less intelligent animals, because I absolutely do. But I think just in general, I have a profound discomfort with pork in particular, on par with the level of discomfort I might have with, say, dog meat or primate meat.

Luckily not many places use as cruel of a tactic for slaughtering. They are typically more humane now but unfortunately not all are. They should all at least adopt the more humane, quick method to slaughter them.

We should ask the tiger to be more gentle while killing the deer.

I used to wonder why the staff were such cunts, abusing the animals and making them suffer more than necessary for the job.

Then I heard that slaughterhouses can attract psychopaths, who want to be able to torture and kill with impunity and pay, since killing pets and humans could get them in trouble.

Some people are a little squeamish, I guess.

I never felt compelled to throw up after watching slaughterhouse videos, and finding out what happens to animals.

However, I don't want to support those industries, so they definitely influenced my plans of going vegetarian.

That sounds awful I'm a meat lover but damn that dose sound messed up.

You are really stuck on this boiling part. The processis horrible wuvh us why I primarily eat fruit andveggies n junk now. If I had the freezer room I would hunt. We're most of the time would be a quick clean kill

I worked in a slaughter house. Slaughter room and the hot n cold rooms. Didn't bother me. What did bother me was seeing employees dropping meat on the floor and stealthy putting it back on the belts
