 All right, so we're in Berlin. It's about three degrees Celsius We're driving out to a slaughterhouse. We had to hire a car I'm driving in Europe for the first time with the right hand driving on the right hand side of the road So it's a bit confusing But we're driving up to a pig slaughterhouse to go bear witness and I don't know anything about this place until we arrive So we'll have to see what happens. All right, I reckon this is them up there There's police there So they've got a truck stopped in the middle of the road Film the activists. Let's have a look. There's a fire inside your heart Let it light up the world. It's Mr. Truck, eh? Oh my god, there's a puppy in there Hello Hello darling How are you all? Nice to meet you. How are you? How many trucks have been here? I've got six, I think. Six? What? 4,000 a day here. What is it? Gash chambers? Gash chambers. Hello. Hello. Nice to meet you. How are you? Fine. That's good. Yeah, you're Joey. I'm Joey. Yeah. Okay. I'm working for a local newspaper here, and we are trying To make some picture and report about this what you're doing here. Yeah And you just came from Australia? I come from Australia. I actually just flew from Italy Berlin this is to this place this slaughterhouse. Yeah Why don't we come to this slaughterhouse? Is this the closest slaughterhouse to Berlin? Yeah Two hours away. It's a closest slaughterhouse. It's a big slaughterhouse 4,000 pigs here killed a day. Yeah I think this is a gas chamber. All right, so pigs just like these ones In a gas chamber much like this Being murdered in a place facility behind us in the middle of Germany here Absolutely disgraceful human human being should hang their head in shame for this Should hang their head in shame and change their ways. This is not how we treat other life other sentient life There are several kinds of killing of killing the animals Like this well usually with pigs they kill them in gas chambers because they thrash around. Yeah, and Like if they clean out the bottom of the gas chambers, sometimes their limbs are at the bottom because they tear their own limbs off Yeah, in the in the gas. That's horrible really disgusting to see if you've seen the footage from the gas chambers It's really disturbing to watch You can imagine I would like to show you a gas chamber So they go into this it's like a gondola down the bottom is their co2. Yeah, I can imagine You're doing this all of the time and being an activist in this Yeah, well while animals are being butchered and murdered for no no reason I will Go around and try to raise awareness about it. Yeah, yeah, I don't think it's necessary. I think it's a Cruel you take someone's life from them. Yeah, we have alternatives now plant-based options. Yeah, no one had to die. I Don't think gas chambers are a moral way to treat Yeah sentient beings. I mean we should have learned in history that gas chambers are wrong. It's a quite strange thing to do this in Germany It's a strange thing to have gas chambers killing sentient beings in Germany I don't think a pig is it any morally different to a dog We wouldn't put dogs in gas chambers and stab them for bacon, but we do it for two pigs They eat them by how they eat them by the million here a year pigs probably One of the most intelligent animals on earth to pigs. Yeah, I remember I haven't been in a slaughterhouse when I started Yeah, for a newspaper I didn't I didn't eat Meat for a very long time. I'm not I'm no vegetarian or something. Yeah, it's it's disturbing You know, it's interesting that if you go into a slaughterhouse where animals are killed and turns you off of eating them Which doesn't show me that you're a natural carnivore Carnivores would be hungry in there. They'd eat the corpse blood drink the blood. Yeah human beings. We're not really built for that We like to be disconnected from the process. Yeah, but what we like to do is connect people to the process We say here they are these are the animals show what's really happening It's not like going to the supermarket and purchasing some packaged flesh It's they're struggling Just trying to escape They're terrified in there Horrible. Yeah, the thing is the most of people are good people. They're against animal abuse They wouldn't want to see they wouldn't want to contribute to what happens in there. Most people they'll be like No, that's horrible But they will easily go to the supermarket and purchase it and pay for it to happen Because without the consumer these industries don't exist. Yeah, so the blood is on their hands Used to be on my hands for 26 years. Yeah till I changed What was your point to change your mind and to be become an activist I was Yeah, I did I've previously I spent a lot of my life in gangs and in Going down the wrong track on drugs and alcohol and I am I changed my life around after having an epiphany when it when I was sober in prison and I started to see my life from a new perspective and Part of that epiphany part of that change was to stop Unnecessarily harming others. I started to be conscious of my actions Yeah, I've been harming others for a long time and animals are others So they they I encompassed them in my new compassionate way And I feel I feel like animals don't have a voice the same way humans do humans can form a coalition and defend themselves Yeah, animals are helpless defenseless and their screams are unnoticed So they need us human beings to speak for them. Otherwise, they have no chance. Okay. What do you call this? What would you call this? I don't have any explanation for this Mm-hmm. It's really horrible. Could we just say like in our history We should have learned our lesson about gas chambers, but we still have gas chambers killing thousands of sentient beings in Germany We should have already learned our lesson. That's what I wanted to say If this is a holocaust, yeah, what is happening to animals is a holocaust holocaust the word means slaughter on a mass scale Destruction or slaughter on a mass scale if four thousand sentient beings in one day in one slaughterhouse in one place in Germany Isn't a holocaust. Yeah. Okay. We're talking three trillion sentient animals every year including marine animals Yeah, yeah, that dwarfs any human holocaust in comparison. This is what it is. It's a massacre It's an absolute tragedy They're like a three-year-old children in their mind. Yeah, they're really scared and terrified They don't want to die when they come up. They come out stunned And when they come out the other end, they're stabbed in the throat drained of their blood Chopped up into pieces and served to people Six months old six month old pigs little infant like infants and all four five minute meal This meal is gone as quick as you eat it. That's in their entire life A life of suffering sometimes. Yeah, or a horrible death Okay I think Germans are very sensitive about the meaning of this word and I think there's also danger that when they hear this word they don't Associate it with what happens to pigs. Yeah, they probably just think they criticize you for using this word and Then they are not so open anymore about the vegan message. This could be a danger Of course, I also agreed that it's a gas chamber there, dude. Yes There's a gas chamber murdering animals in there. What is it? 4,000 animals a day Constantly relentlessly 4,000 a day here worldwide Millions millions billions Gary Roskey was in um Israel saying the same thing Okay, and you will stay here for the next two hours or what yeah, we'll stay here for as many Trucks that come in the next few hours what we do the reason this is effective It's not just us standing out the front here with signs looking at animals and crying We're taking photos images of them and we share those images with the public and say hey These pigs were killed not too far away from you You're probably eating one of these personalities that were scared and terrified and died in a gas chamber Please stop boycott the industry. Yeah slowly slowly demand decreases They stop breeding animals and these industries go under that's what we rely on Okay, a truck here is stopped But they wouldn't let us Can we hear the gas chambers from around the back? Is that a killer? Kidlar Okay, it's a killer truck look at the look at the back Looks like it says killer that'll be consistent You know it disgusts me that they they put on the sign food group How's a chopped up body of a murder victim that screamed for their life inside of a gas chamber a food group? Look at this sign It's okay
