While obviously animals do eat other animals, and despite the aggressive article, there is no disputing the fact that when other animals kill each other they do not shoot them up with tons of drugs, put them in a cage seperate from their family and other animals for their ENTIRE natural life, and then either throw them in a grinder or throw them in boiling water while they are still ALIVE.
This is truly sick behavior. If I tortured and murdered your dog in the same fashion you would probably have me thrown in jail like michael vick. But when it comes to any other animal its ok. That is true hipocrisy, and if you believe in god or some ultimate power you know that he/it, put all animals on earth to be respected as his/its creation.
To treat animals this way is like pissing on gods creation, so that you can stuff your little belly and feel content for another 30 minutes. That is shameful and sickening. I think if you see these videos and do not make some sort of change you should probably do some deep reflection.
I myself was a meat eater, lots of meat. I can honestly say that once I started watching these videos of the horrendous torturing of animals I became a vegetarian. At times it seems impossible (of course it is not impossible) to remove yourself completely from the machine that factory farming has become. I cannot look at the videos and pictures of the animals and not feel deeply sad for how their short lives are lead.
I think saying "Steve I don't like your article and just for that I am going to support this system more by eating meat tonight" is extremely childish.
Steve compared it to the nazi's , which is true in some ways because the nazi's systmatically and brutally killed and tortured millions of animals, the average consumer is doing the same thing they are just not themselves holding the gun or turning up the dial on the oven. It is also not true in some ways because I don't think people are as aware of what is going on.
If you are aware though, and you still don't care about what happens to animals at ALL. Then I don't know what to say except that there have been lots of people with no regard for animals and lots of them became serial killers.
If you do care for animals, and you are educated (by watching the clip) on what is going on in factory farms, and you are still turning your back on it then you are simply being a coward.
The least you can do is not become part of the problem.
