Dogs saved from being slaughtered for food arrive in America

[Allybeboba]

Are they going to save cows next? Horses? Fish?

They probably have. They are a Humane Society after all.

[Fargus]

Calves and lambs can be just as cute as some dogs. Yet I don't see the outrage about them?

[Combatbutler]

What a colossal waste of resources, instead of saving dogs in the US, who by all means have a better chance to be adopted rather than cattle bred ones, simply genius. -.-

[telygroar]

Go eat a steak in india, its the same as south korean eating a dog before you. Culture, culture... And no, cow are not necessarilly more dumb that dogs especially the one of my neighbors its just you see that as normal because youve been teached so since birth...

haha, youve made me remember this south park : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbie3DnAkd8

So small cage for the rest of their life? If I was in that situation, I'd say bring on the poison instead.

Nah...
They are let out twice a day. Some get foster parents. They will eventually be adopted.

there is no justification for death that will ever be adequate to make up for it.

it is a failure. the whole design is a failure. whatever is responsible for it, natural or divine, it failed. it should be corrected.

Death should never happen? Sure. But I'm not sure that's even theoretically possible. The extent of re-engineering that we would have to do is immense, and we would have to become synthetic androids with no connection to biology. Because even as you sit there, you are responsible for the genocide of billions of organisms, and billions of your own cell. Is that a bad thing? I'm not so sure.

[Zoibert the Bear]

Why would South Koreans eat dog? Why don't they abide by western culture, which condemns this kind of act? We're obviously morally superior.

This should be stopped immediately and everyone involved, even if that encompasses the entire population of a subcontinent, should be brought back to 2017. Cultural diversity is a DANGER to my moral safety. I am disgusted.

Let me just go ahead and get some delicious pig ribs now. Fuck ISIS and their DON'T EAT PIG bullshit, what a bunch of terrorists.

[Ealyssa]

I hope India will save 46 cows from NA in return...

[Lady Dragonheart]

While that's a nice gesture... what are we going to do with more dogs that are generally unwanted by society? We need more incentive for people to own and care for domestic animals instead of hording them in cages for the duration of their lives.

[endersblade]

i don't really care how. if we could prevent the destruction of life, it would be nice.

we can't, sadly.

once we master genetics, maybe then we could alter everything in the world into herbivores.

Congrats on derailing the entire thread with your warped ideology.

OT: Vietnamese restaurants in NYC are about to have a good week.

Animals die in the production of produce as well. If it's not humans killing animals the machinery used to gather all of your "guilt free" vegetables kill thousands of small animals. If the machinery doesn't do it then the animals themselves will, death is just an unavoidable aspect of life. There is no way to sustain the food requirements of a city without mass production and mass production inevitably results in the death of animals. If you want to live according to your ideals then you should just stop eating entirely because there is nothing that exists that is not the result of the cycle of life and death, plants included.

Your view of the world is delusional.

Right, I guess I better explain it for all the "But It's their culture" Inbreds on Why eating dog is stupid as fuck.

Dogs eat meat. To raise dogs for food, you need to feed them, Meat. So they also need to raise another source of meat. That meat is usually chicken. So the Koreans and Chinese are raising ample supplies of chicken, Just to eat the dog.

People defending these kinds of practices are the same people who defend poachers killing Elephants and Rhinos.

They don't NEED to eat the Dogs, they WANT to, because it's their cultural to brutally torture animals for novals reasons, and yes, Despite how much you cry about it, it is wrong.

Stop defending torture of animals.

[Allybeboba]

So how exactly did they "rescue" them? Did they purchase them or did they just go in there and take them? As much as I love dogs and believe they should not be treated poorly, taking them is still stealing.

Probably didn't meet whatever codes they have over there. You saw the article just as much as I did.
Similar to when government entities rescue animals over here from appalling conditions and put them up for adoption.

[Vankrys]

there are objective moral truths to the world.

western society is morally correct on this issue.

in an ideal world, nobody would need to eat meat, not even other animals.

Giving a sense of moral to a digestive system is kinda out there for an ideology.
Men are omnivore. We are capable of digesting food from both animal and vegetal origin.
There is no moral to it, it's just nature.
I don't eat dogs nor i plan to eat dogs, but in the nutshell, it's just another meat from species.

The only remotely related to moral correctness i can see in this matter would be to treat animal with decency before being killed. There is no point in being unnecessary cruel.

Yes, they seem to boil or burn them alive because either "they taste better" or because "to get rid of the diseases". They do the same thing to captured stray animals like rats, civet cats, etc.

[Queen of Hamsters]

Maybe 'Murica should focus on sorting out their own dog-related problems first? How many stray dogs, backyard breeders and shelter dogs are there in the states?

And those saved dogs don't do jack squat for the other thousands of dogs. Short of making this shit illegal in those countries, it will never stop... and even then, it'd probably continue. It feels good that these dogs have been saved, but in reality it's an exercise in self-admiration.

Not even Western countries with all our laws in place are free from animal torture.

The treatment of the dogs is horrible to say the least, but eating them on the other hand simply is not wrong.

Novel idea but it couldn't it just be that they enjoy the taste of the meat...? Or are we now telling people that their taste in food is wrong?

It's almost how like in america veal cows are kept in crates to prohibit muscle use and movement because it "tastes better".

Yes? We're supposed to excuse the act of maiming and killing animals that are really not very good food animals, because some barbarians say they like it? I guess we can go back to eating Galápagos tortoise because they apparently taste fantastic.
