You know, I always look at it in the context that we ALSO know everybody takes a dump too, but we don't have to look at it to be aware of it. I cringe at the thought of how they slaughter animals for our consumption!

I never buy any meat product because of the inhumane, atrocious way the majority of animals are slaughtered for consumption. I was born and raised on a farm by my Grandmother, who taught me how to slaughter in a humane way, which in turn I have taught my children to slaughter in the same way. I know it sounds cruel, but at least I know the animal concerned does not suffered agonizing pain and fear.

My neighbour works for Cosco, she came home very upset one day as the store had destroyed about sixty trees that they couldn't sell, profit before the environment right down to trees that could have been donated to parks and schools. They suck..............
