Both pigs fell over to their sides, instant brain shot. I watched the blood trickle from the headshot, their eyes haze over blue. My dad and uncles bound their feet, put a pole between their legs and carried them out to the carport where we kept the power transfer sprayer.

I mean, you gotta eat something

They wound a come along into the rafters of the car port, and hoisted the pigs up one by one, slitting their throats and letting the blood drain into metal buckets. They cut their bellies and their internal organs fell onto the plastic sheets below.

that's when I lost it. I hopped on my bike and rode the 1/4 mile down the dirt driveway on my bannana seat bike. There I was by myself next to San Felipe road, crying my eyes out, because I knew I would never see my friends again.

I understand

My heroes that vanquished my fowl tormenter. We took the carcasses to a butcher in Los Gatos, and they got turned into bacon, sausage, pork chops, loins, ribs. I found I enjoyed the hell out of the meat, and I realized their sacrifice allowed me to be fed.

and that's sort of where I understood why we do this, why we kill and eat animals. They choose to be domesticated, they choose to be dependent on us, and in return they become our food.

(don’t really think they choose so, but otherwise fair)

They get fed until they're fat, they don't have to suffer from natural predators, they even have the nourishment and safety to reproduce.

And had fast death

right

ever see a cat kill its prey? It's not a quick death, they're literally eaten alive. It's a fucked up way to go suffering like that.

They play with there food too

I mean that makes sense, I understand what you’re saying. But the difference here which you didn’t really address is the fact that pigs are meant to be food animals, whereas dogs aren’t. Dogs aren’t meant to be eaten, rather they live alongside us. Pigs, other livestock, are bred mainly to be eaten, and to produce offspring, which are also eaten. But I won’t deny your emotional attachment to the pigs nor your realization

Depends on where you're from. Asian countries love dog meat. They raise them like livestock.

but they have some fucked up practices, they believe that adrenalin enhances the flavor of the meat, so making the animal die a suffering death is the fate most animals get over there. Nothing quick or painless about it.

That was always wrong to me. Vegans are like “oh it’s ok to kill cows but not dogs you hypocrites.” And im just like “yeah, dogs aren’t meant to be food animals you dolts.” Though I’ve heard in Asia they eat dog because it’s cheaper than other kinds of meat, probably cuz theyre not meant to be eaten, and never were meant to be eaten. And yeah a lot of the practices there are fucked beyond belief

Like, I'm totally cool with them eating dog, cat, whatever, just don't be dicks to the animal when it's time to harvest. Give it a quick painless death.

ya I've seen videos. They boil then alive and shit

yup

That’s sickening

Skin them alive too

oh gods
I...
I could have gone without that information

Eating dogs is already sickening because they’re not food animals they’re supposed to be companion animals for emotional companions, hunting, security, military service, etc. but the way they kill them is even worse

It's sickening. If you going to eat something. Least give then a quick death

@🛫navytuna🛬 ζ🌹🌻 the famous bat soup. They drop the bat in boiling water till it's dead then put it in soup

So like I said earlier, if it was a situation where I had to eat my dog, i'd do it, but I'd do it as respectfully and painlessly as I could, for her sake.

Give anyone a quick death if it is inevitable, don’t fucking drag out misery

Unless it’s lobster in which case you kinda have to otherwise it’ll go bad. You can get really sick if they die before cooking unless you kill them like right before you throw them in the pot. See because the enzymes in shellfish start breaking down the flesh immediately after death which makes it go bad and can kill you. Also the bat soup thing is what started this corona shit in the first place

but the cat would go first... cause fuck that cat and her pissing all over the house, that cat is a whore.

<:trumplaugh:666855109644386314>

I’ve heard cats are assholes

But I agree. if this place comes commie and there no food. Dog will be last thing I eat

But will eat it if needed

Same here

Communism is unobtainable

I've watched my cat walk past her clean litterbox, and piss on the carpet, while staring at me. She's a total cunt.

Furthest economically left we’ll get is democratic socialism (no one can die because they are poor basically)

Dog has a torn ACL and will still scratch on the door in the middle of the night if she has to go.

Shit, I hope your dog feels better

I'm scraping by in San Jose, Cali is fucked, vets around here want $3500 for the surgery, and it's not 100% with big dogs.
