what I am saying is that in our industrialized agribusiness much of what goes on every day is horrendous. Cramped cages too small too even turn around. Debeaking, force feeding calves to make veal Forced scirocis of the liver to make pate de fois grois. Range fed, naturally slaughtered is one thing agriindustry though can be very inhumane.

So in other words you applaud this farm/stable and want them to keep up the good work?

I wont be going vegan over this, it is a bad thing that goes on in some places such as those stables but who knows if this was an oversite or not? Why would someone think that anyone at that business did that purposely? yeah, animals die when we want to eat them, its not a pretty picture but how else do you think a cow turns into hamburger? there are so many things that people would not want to see that are horrible but necessary, the use of animals for food is pretty gruesome and when you watch it being done it can have a negative affect on a person thus the reason why people dont want to hear about it or see it. working in a funeral home or morgue is another example of a necessary process that people really dont want to hear about or see. really any food processing plant most likely has practices that would not sit well with some people, take into consideration the amount of dirt/insects/etc that are allowed in any food, if someone was to film that I bet some people would be turned off. killing animals isnt pretty no matter how you spin it, in this case someone didnt do their job properly and that person should be punished. however, although the process isnt palatable it is a necessity.


Atleast in 99.9 % of the time the people in funeral homes and morgues are DEAD. O_O
