But that's my point. A lot of the meat we eat (I was vegetarian for ten years, but not any more) spends it's whole life living in a cage full of its own shit and then gets killed fairly unpleasantly in an abbatoir. Thie elephant spent most of its life trundling around Africa and then bled to death overnight. Neither of these are nice and both are unecessary and cruel, but is the death of the elephant so much worse than the mundane cruelty and misery of normal farming?
I think that some of the more extreme things said on this thread about what should be done to this woman can only legitimately be said by vegans and, to a lesser extent, vegetarians. Those of us who are meat eaters should face the fact that we are sometimes just as cruel, only we do it remotely rather than buying a special bow and arrow.
I'm not condoning the cruelty of farmed animals, but they are reared for us to eat. yes the way that they farmed is unacceptable.
But i find extremely unacceptable that a animal is shot and left to die in the name of sport or for a bet.
At least battery hens turn into chicken nuggets that are eaten.
Riding down stamford street towards waterloo at 7.35ish this morning dude on a cream frame will pink tyres, zoomed past me, i was on my dark pink conversion.
It was an excellent evening me thinks, all though they should have though about the screening logistics in more detail. . .the lack of sound detracted from the films.
Yet the vibe was perfect. . . well done to all the people who produced Fixed Issue 3 and Shop 14
A couple of days later I went through the same lights and then hit a pothole, then the kerb and landed flat on my face on the pavement in front of a pair of bobbies on the beat. Cue laughter and "that'll serve you right, you tit" from the oldest...
