Can this be locked before more people get flamed?

Note the THEY would be eating your chickens

I've been around every aspect of the broiler industry, I know first hand what they go through.
I've picked them up off the road, my brother in law has 3 houses, and friends have some too.
I've helped them with those.

I did refrigeration for a large poultry company for two years in the early 90's
I've also been overseas, and have seen the look in starving peoples faces.
While I was still raising my own back yard flock, my leghorns were as docile as my bramhas and just as spoiled rotten.
I had 130 of these spoiled rotten chickens, they seemed to think I was compassionate enough to run to set on my lap when they saw be coming.

Compassion comes in different ways.
Letting a person go hungry to save a chickens life that was raised and bred for that purpose is just illogical.

I think my eyes have probably seen more of that sort of thing than yours have, to be honest.
I've seen far worse.

You may have seen alot of suffering but have you done everything in your power to stop it? You don't have to feed a person a chicken to keep it from starving, in fact it is far healthier NOT to eat that genetically modified chicken!

I am glad you have farmed your own chickens and have shown them humane treatment. I think anyone who eats meat should do the same. If you can't raise it and kill it don't eat it! I think that anyone who eats meat should be responsible for that animals care and life until it meet a humane end. Factory farms are a bleak and dismal existance for the animals there.

Problem is, that ain't possible.
We live in a world of what IS not what IF.
What we would LIKE to see has little to do with the reality.

Sorry I'm CANADIAN, & we refer to them as INDIANS up here, cause they had nothing to do witth America before the white man arrived.
Or should I say Caucasian to keep you happy.

Sure say caucasian, you tend to open your mouth and say whatever you like as long as its going to irritate someone anyway.
And Indians are from INDIA not CANADA!

That would be EAST INDIANS from India. Where did you learn your cultural differences.

The Proud Tribes from all of North America are in fact INDIANS

I always thought the word Indian sounds like they are from India.

That is bc there is so little action, people don't want things to happen but they won't get up off their butt and actually DO anything about it.

Ok, I think we are so far off topic. I might clean this up later and reopen it. If I have time.
There are a few of you who would do well to review the rules about flaming.

Thanks.
