12/01/11(Thu)22:09 No.31917577I've worked with horses, and they're great animals. I wouldn't look forward to seeing one get slaughtered, but I'm not going to get all righteous about other people eating them.
>But White Owl worries that if slaughterhouses open, owners will dump their unwanted animals there instead of looking for alternatives, such as animal sanctuaries.
Or instead of leaving their animal out the starve to death. Which many people do. Also they're allowed to make choices you don't agree with, you facist prick.
>Animal rights groups also argue that slaughtering is a messy, cruel process, and some say it would be kinder for owners to have their horses put to sleep by a veterinarian
>slaughtering an animal is messy
WHOA NO SHIT SHERLOCK. SOME CALL FUCKING CNN, THIS IS SOME BREAKING NEWS; GETTING ALL THE BLOOD AND GUTS OUT OF AN ANIMAL AND CHOPPING IT UP IS A MESSY PROSPECT. Also having been to a slaughterhouse, I know most animals are killed instantly and the cruel part is complete horseshit(HAHA I'M SO FUNNY).
>The report from the U.S. Government Accountability Office also determined that about 138,000 horses were transported to Canada and Mexico for slaughter in 2010, nearly the same number that were killed in the U.S. before the ban took effect in 2007. The U.S. has an estimated 9 million horses.
Also the ban didn't do anything except move the industry, so, you know, continuing would be an exercise in futility.
PS this is not news, you pony faggot. |
