Show a saharan nomad the attitude some people have towards animals and watch his expression. If you don't think saharan nomads, bushmen, massai etc have respect for animals you're mindnumbingly ignorant.
Why is it that if any kind of animal rights are being discussed, the retorts revolve around how people are supposed to eat meat? Even if its like "say no to making medicine out of tigers penises" someone will say "humans have a digestive tract suited to eating meat and bla bla"
Wtf does that have to do with anything?
Why are people so basic that they can't distinguish between killing and mistreating/disrespecting?
Killing animals for food was never supposed to be a rage driven activity, we aren't angry at animals when we eat them. If you are, go see a psychologist, or better yet go duke it out with a lion face to face.
Human anger, aggression, etc is intended for other humans. Hunting animals was (and is for hunter gatherer tribes that still exist) a spiritual experience. And utmost respect was shown to fallen prey. Anger is reserved for members of your own species, organisms you can relate to, communicate with, understand, and thus rightfully become angry with.
I'm not against eating meat, I'm against the mindset seen in people today. Restricted from venting their anger on other people, they take it out on the living creatures that have no laws protecting them. Usually just by thinking like an idiot (ie nebuchudnezzar and his "fuck them
" attitude), but it often gets worse with physical violence, and its just disgusting, cowardly and pathetic. The dispicable look that appears on someones face when they are
enjoying hurting an animal that can't defend itself.
Nothing is uglier than these people, not a "sea-roach" or anything. These people should be boiled alive. Thats not a passive half hearted comment. I would turn up the heat, and slowly lower these people into a boiling pot of water feet first while looking them in the eyes and spitting at them. Set up the contraption and I'll be there.
