I'm just being realistic. you know meat proccesing isnt going anywhere. the standards for it can at least be worked on, and animal fighting should be stopped.

Battery chicken farming is an obscenity. Birds packed together and stuffed with
chemicals and antibiotics to make them grow quickly, shitting on top of each other.
And then we eat that ? :(

I ask for "Free Range" now if I have poultry.

And I am sure we would reduce the risk of bird flu if we stopped this.

We have bullfighting here in my state of Tamil Nadu in India as well. They banned it this year, but again due to "pressure" the court allowed one or 2 bull fights..

That's two different things though. One is a spectacle purely for the amusement of some sick people, the other has a proper reason behind that isn't merely 'fun'.

I totally agree though, battery farming is disgusting.

I don't wish to sound 'moral high ground' here, but I've been a vegetarian since 1987, and by that I don't mean one of those fake types who eats fish and/or poultry either. I don't agree with any kind of animal cruelty.

I do my best to not think about things like this as it is truly upsetting to look at. I couldn't bring myself to watch any of those clips, just the reminder is enough.

Truly disgusting that things like this still go on in this day and age. :(

Sorry to veer OT.

Most Spanish people don't like bullfightings. Neither do I.
I´m not into bullfighting either. Many Spanish people are not on it.
