Screw it. Animal torture of any kind is wrong in my book, but I can't knock someone for what they choose to eat if their meat is acquired through humane(whatever that means to people) means. I grew up in a culture where certain foods are seen as "exotic" or "disgusting" by people who didn't even try to take a second to learn about it. We eat goat, guinea pigs, frogs, etc. Granted we don't skin them alive, but we also eat lobster, crab, and crawdads which we boil alive(they die very quickly). I think a crawdad is on a completely different level than a dog, but there are some who don't and woud damn me to hell for eating them and that's their prerogative. Or there's people who think any animal is considered a meat source and will eat anything. Different strokes, different folks. Animal torture =bad, what animal(s) you eat is your business. Hopefully no one will take anything I've written out of context. Last edited by ColesMommy01; 06-18-2015 at 10:50 AM. | |

| That's why most countries think we are arrogant. We criticize on their culture without looking at our's. We are just as bad. |

We're not criticizing culture here, who the heck cares which culture is doing this? We're speaking out against TORTURE AND CRUELTY to living beings, for petes sake. And MANY of us here also speak out against what we do in our culture too, btw. Maybe you missed the Animal Welfare section here?

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | colesmommy and tphan: It's like you're saying "Rape is okay bc it's their culture" -- what you are saying and believing in when you say this is that rape is okay in *this* culture, which in turn means it's really okay in any culture...bc it's just their "culture". In my book, rape is simply NOT OKAY, PERIOD...culture or no culture. I feel the same way about boiling creatures alive...it's not okay, PERIOD.

Creating awareness, signing a petition, posting on FB, supporting organizations who ARE doing something, spreading the word, speaking against HORRIFIC acts done by our fellow humans....that's all a bunch of nothing in your book? If so, I'm happy to continue doing that "nothing". Every.Single.Day.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | No, it's not apples and oranges. We're talking about living beings and acts against them which are horrific in nature. Period. That's what we're talking about here. Rape is wrong, boiling animals alive is wrong, boiling humans alive would also be wrong...if that's what you need to see/hear in order to see it for what it is.
