So you see no difference between a life of pain and cruelty that ends in a terrible death and an animal that lives a decent life of being outside, having room to move around, eating good feed, etc., that ends in a quick and relatively painless death?
Seems like a rather black and white way of looking at things. |
i think you inadvertently demonstrated nefs point here (something i believe as well). she doesn't see the difference between the slaughter of one animal in poor conditions and the slaughter of a different animal in slightly poorer conditions. That would be 'gray' whereas you've called upon this arbitrary notion of what a terrible life means for animals (anthropomorphizing them, to a point), effectively setting it as a 'black and white' issue. |

You've always got to bring up the race issue, don't you? |

^ this.
srussell, believe me, I know what free range means.
if you raise an animal to kill it and eat it, what value is its life to you whether it's been running around in some pasture or stuck in a pen wing to wing?
Srussell - what do you think of free range cat? Would you eat a free range cat? |

Cats are obligate carnivores, therefore their meat is rather stringy. Same goes for dogs, spotted owl, and bald eagles - they all taste pretty bad.
The stress of poor or even torturous conditions tends to tighten the meat, allowing for deposits of fat rather than the desirable marbling. This is a tragedy.
I have a very modest proposal for all of you... |
