I stand for

*Warning: Rant. If you don’t want your day ruined by my whining, then I recommend you back away slowly now*

Context: A thread regarding a petition on a Facebook Animal Rights group. The very controversial subject of dog meat trade in Asia. People feeling all disgusted by the fact that other people are eating dog meat.

Here is my initial comment on the thread after reading all the previous comments.

OK… I’ll bite. I know I’m going to get a lot of hate replies but what the hell. Abuse aside (yes, I know the poor doggies are brutally murdered), how many of you here in this group that are so upset and up in arms about people in Asia eating dogs and cats, eat cows and pigs and chickens, and ducks, and Pâté (made of horribly abused geese) and lobsters (horribly boiled alive)? What’s the difference between displaying the lobster and displaying the dog you are about to eat? And you DO know a good number of the cows, pigs and chickens you eat daily are also very much inhumanely slaughtered, right?

Who decides which animals deserve mercy and which don’t?

I’ll leave that here for you to consider.
