Yeah these guys are a right bunch of Dicks fire fighters regardless, but I mean it is a pig, they get slaughtered and killed every day, granted not by the very people that were supposed to save it, but in this case it was going to be made into exactly what they turned it into.

I support pig in all its many flavors.
Unreason and anti-intellectualism abominate thought. Thinking implies disagreement; and disagreement implies nonconformity; and nonconformity implies heresy; and heresy implies disloyalty — so, obviously, thinking must be stopped. But shouting is not a substitute for thinking and reason is not the subversion but the salvation of freedom. - Adlai Stevenson

The baby pigs and two sows were saved from certain death when the barn they were living in went up in flames in February.
But six months later they ended up on the barbecue when they were handed to the firefighters who extinguished the blaze – as organic bangers.

Fire crews had extinguished the fire at Lawn Farm in Milton Lilbourne, Wiltshire, owned by Rachel Rivers.
She said: “This was just a token gesture to the fire service. They were over the moon with them.
Well I would say you probably didn't read the article, but knowing you ya did, and you obviously don't see what the problem is. Originally Posted by lockedout

So its a "dick thing to do" to eat an animal meant for human consumption just because they rescued them as piglets? Originally Posted by Mall Security

Nothing to see here, just an OP who can't read.

Well NO, not especially, since the problem isn't with them eating or consuming meat, as much as it is with the fact these specific animals were rescued by the fire fighters and turned around and made into lunch. Originally Posted by Jaylock

What's the problem here?
Fire fighters saved the farmers goods. Farmer gifted those goods later on after they were processed.
Sounds alright to me.
Oh, what? You don't consider animals to be goods? Sowwy

Having family that lived on a pig farm, I can tell you that as children my cousins would pick out "their" pig and name it. As a pet sort of thing, but only in the nature that you pay attention to their day to day well-being and kind of remember the history of their life. Gimpy, for instance, was one with a limp that my youngest cousin had named. When it came time for slaughter, Gimpy still got eaten, and they typically kept the named ones to be specially butchered and sent back to the farm family for consumption. Livestock raising is not for the easily attached.
