What an inspiring woman.

@M4d150n2596 it's funny, but a large percentage of animals agree with animal slaughter, and they DO torture their victims.

she affects me.. =)

@ediblered I can imagine myself working at a slaughter house but I wouldn't feel like those people you describe. Remember when Temple was standing beside the cow with her hand on it's side? She said it was perfectly calm and had no idea what was going to happen to it. I could be part of Dr. Grandin's slaughter system to provide meat for us human's. Let's stop this exchange, you and I just see this differently.

@conyelp of course he encourages them to find other work. And actually the trauma stays with the worker long after they leave or relocate. These jobs are geared towards more economically disadvantaged people and areas. Sure many of the workers are barbarians, but some are just trying to get by and feel they have no other options. The fact that you can't imagine yourself in that situation (and neither can I)...well we are both very fortunate people for that.

@ediblered I can't imagine not being able to find any other work and staying with a slaughter house when it traumatizes you. Looks like that phychiatrist fellow would encourage them to find other work but then he would loose the fee they pay to see him too.

@SirLaurenWilson Read your Bible, we are superior to the animals, Christ ate meat. If animals are killed with some respect and dignity shown what's wrong with that? Which means they shouldn't be tortured to death. That's what Temple Grandin did, she came up with a way to kill them so they don't suffer fear or trauma. If people choose not to eat animals, their decision but why should the ones of who do be made to feel like outcasts?
-
@conyelp actually many people who work in these types of places do so because they don't have many employment options. A good friend of mine had a cousin who worked as as a psychiatrist near a slaughterhouse... he said about %90 of his patients worked at the slaughterhouse and are traumatized by their work.

@RicRagsLive Everything dies? Oh you don't say? So what your saying is if I felt like eating you based on the fact that I think you taste good. (since there is absolutely no health benifit to eating meat) it would be fine because everything dies. You'll die some day so I should put a bullet in your head and eat you. Thanks for clearing that up.

@RicRagsLive I agree completely that a LOW meat diet is beneficial for not just the individual, but the planet as a whole. Yes, killing is killing, but everything dies, natural deaths are rarely painless. I see a bolt to the head a much more plesant death than starving over the course of a winter or dying slowly of disease or being torn apart by a predator. Sorry to break it to you, but... EVERYTHING DIES and I don't think animals care what happens to their bodies after they die. I don't

Although I am a vegetarian, I greatly admire Dr. Grandin and her work. I disagree with killing animals, of course, but that does not mean that everyone does. The 97 percent of the population that consumes meat should at least respect the animals they are using for food, and humane slaughter methods allow them to do just that.

@Majikbeemer Are you serious? The animals couldn't care less whether it's a "trick" or not. They don't have the brain capacity to think like that. All they care about is running away from things that scare them. They, among with all other living creatures, are programmed to do so. When you take away what scares them - they are no longer scared. Would you like to die scared or calm? ... I'm pretty sure the animals would like to die calm, too.
