I totally agree with this article. making animals more comfortable until they die is still barbaric. the idea that an animal is raised for food whether on factory farms or a humane family farms doesnt change the fact the animal still needlessly dies for humans to eat thier flesh which is causing health problems, enviormental problems and contributing to world hunger.

the only answer it STOP EATING ANIMALS NO MATTER HOW THEY ARE RAISED OR SLAUGHTERED.
