Yesterday, I was chatting with Mira about animals being slaughtered. I love to talk about issues, but no one wants to talk about it because it is boring which makes Mira is the first person who I talk about issues to. =) I know this is boring, but I am going to blog about it and no one can stop me. =)

When there is a story about animals being abused, most of the people are shocked about it. " Why are the owners so cruel? ", " What happened to the world? " and " If I have a dog, I will never treat it like the abusive owners. ". All these voices started popping out in your mind, but think about it. When it is about eating meat, no one has a problem with it. Ohyeah. In case you didn`t know, when pregnant animals are hanging on the line bleeding to death, you can see the unborn babies kicking inside their mothers` wombs. Seriously.

Those motherfuckers purposely let the animals suffer to death because it will produce adrenaline to make its meat tastes better. Fine. So the meat tastes better, but suffer to death? That is sad. Imagine Sarah[ Sarah, I am sorry. -_- Haha. ] shoots you in the hands and legs and you can`t do anything about it. How do you feel? Get my point. Anyway, according to Mira, animals being slaughtered is the least pain way to die and being shot is the painest way to die. -_- I still think being slaughtered is pain, but not as pain as being shot. Why don`t those motherfuckers just give the animals pills? -_-

Now, I am going to tell you about how they kill animals.

For cattles, those who become debilitated and unable to stand due to broken legs or illness are called " Downers ". These animals are electrically prodded, dragged with chains or left to die without food or water.[ Imagine the gastric pain. -_- ]

As for pigs, they are stunned and hang upside down. After that, their throats are cut and bleed to death. If the workers fail to kill them with knife, they are carried on the conveyer belt to the next station, the scalding tank where they may be boiled alive.

For poultry, they are boiled alive.

For hens, they are forced to produce ten times the amount of eggs they would produce naturally. When egg production slows down, farmers use " Forced Molting " to shock them into losing their feathers and prematurely starting a new laying cycle. This technique includes starving and denying water to the hens for few days which many of them die. To keep them from pecking each other, farmers debeak them. Debeak is a painful procedure where their sensitive upper beak is sliced off with a hot blade.

For cows, in order to continue producing milk, a cow must have a calf every year. Normally, calves stay with their moms for a year or more, but in this case, they are removed from their moms so that the milk can be sold for human consumption. They are sold to the beef or veal industry or become replacements for burned out cows.

I know you love meat. Ohwait. Who doesn`t? But just to satisfy your needs, these animals have to suffer. Does it worth your needs? Well, to me, the answer is a no.

Yours truly.

I am Carmen and cool to meet you, you good looking motherfucker. :D Okay. Let's get to business. I am sorry to say this, but I am self center which explains why most of the pictures in this blog are me, myself and I. :D Oh, and I love to do silly faces. :)
