As pigs are delivered to the slaughterhouse, activists offer water and comfort to the doomed

“They’ve never experienced love,” said Emily Dent, who heads the Wednesday night vigils on behalf of Animal Alliance. “They were raised in warehouses and probably didn’t even get nursed. That little bit of water we give them — that’s probably the only love they’ll ever experience.”

L.A. Animal Save also has twice-a-month chicken and cow vigils outside processing plants in Vernon and Pico Rivera.

“You get 20 minutes to be with the chickens,” Dent said.

It’s sad how we treat animals in our industrialized society. I’m an unapologetic carnivore, but I wish there was a better way to raise and off them.

I stopped eating delicious, delicious veal when I found out how they were treated.

I've tried to convince Mrs CHEEZY to move way out and get some land and raise/grow our own food. Slaughtered as needed.
Fresh eggs, meat and veggies with no pesticides or other assorted chemicals? Fuckin A that sounds awesome.
She's a city girl through and through and she's having none of it.
It is pretty brutal what those animals go through. That said, the best you'll get from me is I do try to limit our beef consumption. Used to be 2 or 3 times a week for sure but I've cut it down to usually once maybe twice.

I helped slaughter a sheep when I was in Mongolia, they have an interesting technique - flip it over with one man holding each set of legs, then the butcher slits it open, reaches inside and tears the aorta. That way all the blood is saved inside the carcass for lovely black pudding.

You can eat free range whatever you want. It'll cost you several times more to buy it.
My wife's cousins raise beef they sell directly to high end restaurants as "free range" grass fed and antibiotic / hormone free.

My distant cousin and her hubby have a commercial feed lot operation. It's rather sad to see.
