Thru The Ozone Breaking News Beef Recall

[kenzo100591]

io nn sono vegetariano anche perchè, siamo onesti nn si potrebbe vivere solo di erba ma resto dell'idea ch ci sono modi e modi di uccidere questi poveri animali, vorrei solo che la gente c he li uccide così, morisse così come fanno morire questi poveri animali. BASTARDI FIGLI DI PUTTANA.

[klblonde]

I grew up on a small farm & have been around cows always. I no longer eat beef after watching your video & find that it doesnt change my life in any big way. These animals do feel pain & fear just like your pets & they come to show their feelings when you are good to them. To watch this video & just begin to imagine the kind of suffering imposed on these poor animals when they are already downers & then just mistreated more is so inhumane. I hope many will view & write the govt agency .

I recon I'd like to have a big ole Ribeye steak to go with my french fried tators.

PETA . PEOPLE for the EATING of TASTY ANIMALS!

Eat more BEEF!

[tumadrealvolo2vorte]

you are an son of a bitch dieeeee bastard

[librophile]

The Democrat Party has tried & tried again, to pass bills HR.661 & S.394 to ban the abuse, torture & slaughter of ALL sick, injured, dying animals...(Cows, Pigs, Sheep) from entering our Food Chain.

The Republican Party has always opposed the bill(s) while siding with the interests of Big Corp Agri-Businesses. Slaughtering a downer represents a PROFIT for the Meat Packing Industry.

This is INHUMANE and IMMORAL. Please vote Democrat in Nov 2008 and kick the Republicans out of Congress.

I'm vegan the thought of flesh just disgusts me.But as some here wish to continue carnivorous ways dispite heart/artery issues, diabetes, obesity, ect here's a bit from North Texas E news:Technical Briefing Hallmark/Westland Packing Co.

By USDA

Feb 21, 2008

DR. PETERSEN:"Then other animals can have other, you know, maladies, various infections, eye infections, mastitis, that kind of thing. Some of those animals may be eligible for slaughter."What? infections? mastitis?various maladies?YUK!

[millgiass]

Don't act like your crap is safe to eat either. It's all sprayed with poisons and absorbs into your food. And Obesity isn't caused by what you eat it's caused by eating too much of it. My brother's wife is Vegan and she's significantly over weight. Frankly everything we eat is pumped chock full of stuff that shouldn't be there... Plant or animal. If properly cooked theres little cause for concern. People should eat what they like and stay off other peoples plates.

In the US they pump up their cattle with anabolic steroids and feed their children with genetically modified grain.

Thanks to everyone for their comments. YouTube provides a forum for ideas that stimulate dialog. The issue here is not to eat meat, that is your individual decision. The issue is downer cattle allowed to enter the food chain. Was it allowed for profit?

Stupidity is not protecting the public including our children for the sake of profits. Finally, the issue is animal abuse. All in the name of profits. Sure these animals were on their way to be slaughtered but do we have to treat them that way?

[RBZOMB]

You dont have to stop eating meat. I like meat and wont become vegan over these videos. HOWEVER. There are many other humane ways of killing these animals for slaughter. There's NO reason they need to be kicked, beaten, rammed with forklifts, or zapped in the face when they KNOW the animal cannot stand up. These animals feel pain and fear just like we do. If that were YOU on the ground, you'd understand. Killing an animal quickly and painlessly should NOT be too much to ask.

[Baryski]

this is a stupid video and totally untrue of how we can handle the situation concerning BSE. Use your brains, people like meat and im not about to give it up. if youre going to do something like this on a video dont be so dramatic and base it on facts!!!!!!!!!

[eastcoaster187]

fucking peta freaks if we wanna eat meat then we will so fuck off all u tree huggers

[millgiass]

You know whats really funny about Peta? They slaughter nearly 100% of the animals they suppsivly protest to save. Pure Hipocracy.

Watch Penn & Teller's Bull-Shit on Peta. They tear it down. LOL

[eastcoaster187]

lol

[ihatevirginia]

what's so hard about not eating meat??? I've been a vegetarian for the past few years and I will never go back. For me beef was the easiest to give up. There really isn't anything healthy about eating any type of mean except for fish.

[millgiass]

Thats an untrue statment. The only problem is Americans have their Pyramid mixed up. Meat & Dairy is suppose to be one of the smaller points. And most americans seem to swap Meat & dairy with the spot Friuts & Veggies are suppose to be in. That makes it off balance and health is a delecate balance. Since most of us aren't Farmers who need the protiens the food pyramid should really be paid attention to. Our meat servings should be half the size of our veggies... Not the main course.

this is stupid. People like beef. Let's discuss how to make it safer. I really don't want to be a vegetarian today

[keptyeti]

"Stupid" is choosing to continue to consume a product for which there are no reliable controls for sanitaion and safety. Business will always find a way to decrease cost and increase profit; and that means finding ways to avoid or skirt safety and sanitation rules. You want clean, safe meat? Take up hunting, and learn how to clean a carcass yourself. There is another option, but I wouldn't want to suggest you do something you don't want to do.

[jkb246]

Well people can eat Organic like I do. 24 month or younger STEER(and only steer) beef.

Or even better try some grass-fed, grass finished beef. Another great and even healthier alternative

[keptyeti]

Unfortunately organic meat is usually processed at the same slaughter houses as other meat. There is a requirement for the organically raised animals to be slaughtered seperately, but based on the realities of how blatantly regulations are ignored in these slaughter houses I find it hard to imagine the crew giving any special consideration to the organically raised animals. You're probabably better off than the average burger muncher, but how much better off is impossible to say.

[toxicriot]

stupid is a state of mind.
