I find the cruelty unnecessary, but again, not all places treat their animals this way. I wonder if the workers find some sort of sadistic pleasure from doing this sort of thing- not all people treat animals this way, so why should the ones who don't want to make a fuss eat leaves and weeds for the rest of their lives? Hell, the other day, I didn't have the heart to decapitate a dead chicken which came in a bag from the supermarket fridge.

I'm going to eat what I want, regardless of what the animal went through because if "they" were paid moar to treat the animals humanely, the consumer -you and I- may have to pay a little more. I don't have money. Please give me money!

This brings poaching to mind. Go out to somewhere, find a rare animal, remove the bits that will fetch money, and leave it to die. i.e. Rhino horns, shark fins, snow leopard skin, etc.


tl;dr- Even though I don't really appreciate what the animals go through, I'll still eat meat, and I'm sure many of you will agree with me on this. Oh, and I can't decapitate dead chickens.
