Is it because you feel nothing for them? Because you can not pet them and turn them into companions? Because they do not lick your faces and cuddle at your feet?

Yet piglets, an animal said to be as intelligent as a five year old child, are roasted alive underneath heat lamps in many slaughter houses because they can't regulate their body heat. Chickens are debeaked alive and boiled in hot water while alive due to the fact that such makes removing their feathers easier. Cattle are oftentimes not properly stunned and still kicking & thrashing as their throats are slit and they left to bleed to death.


You only disagree with it because dogs are pets and thus worth saving. Cattle, chicken, pigs, etc., well maybe it is true and their only purpose in life is to live & die for the knife. But even so there are people who view these animals as pets too. Have closer affinity for them than people have companionship with dogs. So how exactly can such beasts have such meaningless lives?


Besides dog meat markets have existed throughout Europe for years. Poland & Switzerland have some rather well known dog meat markets, sold by whites mind you; you just have to use the right terms and they'll be putting away the slap of beef and showing you a dog's leg. You could buy dog meat in Canada and the US during the Depression and well as stomach knotting as it'll sound apparently, I have heard, you still can in some areas.

Actually you could get dog meat in a number of European markets during the War, including England. Oh yes you like "hot dogs" right, well the concept comes from Germany and guess what they were dicing up too alongside the pork until about the mid 1980s.



You point a finger without understanding the entirety. Yet many who protest such behavior will likely never raise anything but a passing fist or a fleeting thought towards the treatment of cattle, pigs, or chickens.

There is so many people in China that literally dog meat is the only way some of them can ever eat meat. Not much different than how, if your forefathers were European, they survived the Wars or if just Americans they survived the Depression.

Yes, people eat all kinds of things, even go as far as canabilism. but the thing with Yulin festival is people are eating dog because it's a festival and if you eat dog starting on the summer solstice it's supposed to bring good luck, so people are eating dogs out of a superstition. I watched something on Nightline and it was horrendous. Maybe if you would watch what actually goes on, you'd feel differently. Dogs are stolen in hopes of getting money for them. Dogs still had collars on, some are raised in horrid conditions simply to be slaughtered. The screams and cries are horrendous to hear. The people are brutal and have no care or compassion for these poor dogs, it's all about money and feeding people's superstitions. I can't get what I saw out of my mind now. It's forever seered and I find it despicable that any animal be killed in such horrible ways for food (or some sickos out there do so for thrills or out of anger). This is not right.

And speaking of sick superstitions in some countries Albino children are stolen and their limbs cut off and some are killed and heads taken and why? Again, superstition has it that albino body parts bring good luck. What is wrong with this world?
