PETA
Ive just watched one of the most upsetting, disgusting videos of animal abuse and I feel sick. The video is on Petas website under the title 'meet your meat'. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE IMAGES ON THIS VIDEO ARE SHOCKING AND SHOULD NOT BE VIEWED BY ALL. I am not a vegetarian but I will be considering it after watching this video. I do not understand why if animals are killed for meat that they cant kill them humanely, why do they have to torture these animals? I am very, very upset by these images.

I'm upset reading this so i won't be watching the video.I agree there are more humane ways to kill animals in this day and age so why is it not been done.

The other thing to remember is to take this with a pinch of salt... not all meat is prepared in this fashion and there are strict guidelines on how animals are treated especially in slaughterhouses.
Take a balanced view and then make a decision guys, PETA aren't exactly known for their moderate and balanced approach... |

I couldn't watch the monkey one. I do realise that this doesn't happen all the time but its still sickening to think that this does sometimes happen.
