English is not your mother tongue?

Animals kill other animals. We try to do it in a way that minimize the amount of stress and fear.

[Chip Manuel]

no, most packing plants ARE like this. You just choose to not want to believe this, because this is what everyone tells you that you SHOULD believe.

Trust me, I've been working in this field for a few years now and have been in/out of many many plants, small and large.

Your honesty is noted. But don't be whinging to anyone in a few years (when you have grown up) and are in ill health.

Hi RafaVilla, go ahead and become a vegetable. The correct spelling in dying. Paulie2

[axel markle]

atleast they died instantly and unexpectedly.

I like how she handles things. In a documentary about her, she said that cows were her favorite animals. So, instead of chastising others for eating cattle, she understands that people will continue to eat them and instead puts her efforts in to making sure they have as humane of a death as possible. Very admirable.

It's makes me sad seeing the calm animals Dieing:( makes me want to be a veggi

This is meat industry propaganda. Most humans are treated well in the first world. If one human is kidnapped by a psychopath, kept in a dungeon and viciously tortured every day, do we say "The majority of people are doing ok. Relax."? No we do not. We mount a huge manhunt and we are appalled. It is not good enough that most animals don't suffer terribly in the course of being slaughtered. What matters is the ones that DO.

we dont have to live eat or shit either.. death is an option.. anything people do is basically bad.. driving a car for example, stepping on ants, crushing spiders.. A little meat here and there tastes good and provides a satisfaction incomparable to just a plant diet..I am all for hemp products as soon as that comes readily available..

[terrencomp]

If you were walking in a forest and stumbled upon a hungry grizzly bear say good bye to your face ;) youll be eaten...

[AnimalLeftist]

LOL, so, as you admit, you have NOT read any of her books?

Autism is a poorly understood "disorder". How do YOU know that autism didn't help her? Oh, right, you have NOT read her books.

Never mind. Go stuff your face.
