edited February 2011 in General

  • eye for an eye..

    should line the owners up on their knees in a row and shoot them in the back of the head execution style.
  • i agree.. the details of this story and how the dogs were put down is unbelievable

    I heard about it in the news, and would rather avoid knowing the details.. but in the grand scheme of things, there are probably worse things going on in the world...

    For instance:


    Heed the warning given by the video, it really is disturbing, even by the standards of the Internet.  There is a petition that you can sign though, if you feel it will help. 

    Tens of millions of animals are slaughtered and butchered in China each
    year. Animal fur is in high demand, and the Chinese deliver. What does
    not get exported outside of China usually ends up on a dinner plate. The
    sad fact is that the animals suffer horrendous torture. They are
    captured on the streets, and packed by the dozens into small cages,
    without ability to move. They are then tossed like inanimate objects
    from the trucks, onto the ground, hitting each other and the steel
    cages. These cages are later stacked, and the real nightmare begins. The
    animal is brutally pulled out of the cage, and tied to prevent
    resistance. It is lightly stunned by a blow on the head, but still
    alive. If the animal is not heavy, the worker holds it by its hind legs,
    waves it in the air and then bashes its head against the ground. Once
    the animal is subdued, a new and incomprehensible stage in this ongoing
    nightmare begins. The worker cuts a tiny incision in the animal's rear,
    and then methodically peels away the skin. This skinning process takes
    about a minute, during which the worker actively keeps the animal alive,
    as it is believed that it is easier to skin the animal while it is
    still warm and blood flows through its veins. The nightmare does not end
    here. The final stage in this unbelievable horror is when the animal is
    tossed aside, and slowly, amidst a heap of its dying friends, it
    perishes as it is no longer able to withstand the pain. In other cases,
    when the animal's fur is not needed (mostly with cats), the animals are
    put in a sack, and are then cooked alive in a barrel of boiling water.

    This process is extremely hard to digest, but we believe it is not
    propelled by cruelty, but rather by ignorance and lack of awareness to
    animal needs. The workers do not think to kill the animal before they
    begin, and are not aware of the animal's suffering. Our commitment is to
    provide enlightenment. It is our moral obligation to these animals. If
    we shut our eyes this will not go away!
