I is not only red meat. My first job was in a chicken slaughter. Not pretty either. I know all too well the cruelty of the industry. (My ex. is an engineer in a pork plant) Often, these animals come off the trucks hurt, half dead or some already dead. I am not against someone humaily killing an animal and eating it. I am against the Packing House Industry. They are in-humaine and wastful of the meat they so willfully slaughter.
I read this and got really upset just picturing it. I can't imagine seeing it on TV! It makes me feel helpless. I'm already vegetarian, so there's not much more I can do to make a difference. In my opinion, working in a slaughterhouse has to have a negative psychological effect on a human being. I guess maybe those are the people who are always saying "it's just an animal". Those people I always want to smack!
