WE worship pigs (varaha) in india. Its shame to see how our gods are treated in europe.

[TheBigBadWoIf]

a damn shame. doesn't this also lessen the quality of the meat? i mean taste-wise?

[AlexRichardVocat]

@TheBigBadWoIf I don't want to have a go but the fact that badly reared meat tastes worse should not have any effect on your moral opposition to such rearing. It may be true, but if it wasn't it doesn't make bad rearing right. I met a guy on the street campaigning for better welfare who said how meat was unhealthy for us because we haven't adapted fully from when we were largely herbivores. Fair enough, but why should that make me feel more strongly about the cause? It's selfish.

[TheBigBadWoIf]

@AlexRichardVocat so the answer is yes?

[AlexRichardVocat]

@TheBigBadWoIf Depends on your taste. Cheese tastes good because of parasites within it. It's also to do with what your used to. If someone offered you pig with essence of parasite I'm sure you wouldn't find it palattable. But there are a great deal of microbes in everything we eat, even if uninentional. It's to do with what your used to. Your tastes are heavily dependent on what you've been subjected to. Thus many people who never had mussels growing up find them distasteful in adult life.

@AlexRichardVocat thanks.

At 4:05 - grabbed my kibbles-and-bits in sympathy. I feel your pain, piglet. I feel your pain.

i think  its not good ideas to treat animal badly, they also have brain to reason, i keep pigs in uganda to empower local women in uganda, its on you tube, title PIG MADNESS.

Oft werden die Ferkel schon nach drei Wochen der Mutter weggenommen und im Alter von etwa zehn Wochen in Mastbetriebe transportiert. Dort werden sie mit antibiotikahaltigen Leistungsförderern in drei bis vier Monate schlachtreif gemästet. Enge und Langeweile in den kahlen Buchten mit Spaltenboden und ohne Einstreu führen zu Verhaltensstörungen und Aggression. Krankheiten werden nur mühsam mit hohen Medikamentengaben in Schach gehalten.

I'm for free range meat. I don't think everyone will go vegan and I don't think it's possible.

[Persillebalzm]

You use the word murder in order to provoke empathy, to align animals with humans, because murder is a word used for humans.

[Das0s]

Compassion really need to launch some unplanned investigations into freedom food farms, they might stop endorsing them then.

[Das0s]

People need to know :|

As a consumer of freerange organic meat, I am shocked by this clip. Thanks for putting it online.

[TSM9356]

thanks for putting out this video

[theblackravenisback]

Oh my God... I myself is from Denmark and im completly shocked!! :(

MEAT IS MURDER!!

[Pehpsii]

And to know that these animals have the same intelligence level as a child is just heartbreaking... They are being tortured and they are very aware of it.

[Mentalmadness96]

That is torture, people need to open their eyes. Meat IS murder. even if it is free range. but the caged pigs...... its just inhumain (sorry for bad spelling) ='(

[Persillebalzm]

Nah, it's not murder, but kill.

[apasolini]

It IS murder.

[MelodiaSeira]

@Persillebalzm

Those terms mean the same thing.

[Persillebalzm]

Almost, but murder is the killing of people, whereas kill is the killing of any animal.
