...“They blink. They make noises, the head moves, the eyes are wide and looking around. Still [the worker] would cut. On bad days dozens of animals reach the station clearly alive and conscious. Some would survive as far as the tail cutter, the belly ripper, the hide puller. They die piece by piece.” (testimony from Raymond Moreno, slaughterhouse worker for over 20 years)
Gee, and we wonder how someone can kill and torture another human being. There is absolultely no doubt in my mind that if someone can do the above, then to blow someone away with a gun is nothing in comparison.
Why are so many of us party to such a sick process? For starters, we don't look out our hearts and question things, thus searing our conscience with a hot iron.
amonngst various other activities, romans poured hot metal down peoples throats, we think we have come a long way, but i don't think so.
what does make me happy sometimes, is that there are actually some people waking up.
