This is my thing. All these scumbags saying eating dog is ok because its just an animal blah blah. That is a logical argument until you say you won't eat a human too. Stick to your guns and go full savage. Its like a guy going 70 in a 65, saying the dudes doing 65 are pussies but the guy going 75? Hes a god damn nut.
Of course you can domesticate pigs and I've heard they can be as loyal as any dog. But they don't have the history with mankind that dogs do.
The term "man's best friend" isn't an exaggeration or a pointless cutesy term. Dogs are the animal that has historically helped humanity in their growth the most, maybe at best rivaled by horses, another animal that people don't commonly eat. To a lot of people, killing and eating a creature that literally has the instinct to serve humans in its genetic code is morally wrong and I can't blame them. As someone who's not a dog person I can't relate as well as others but I can absolutely see why it bothers the hell out of people.
Chickens are capable of feeling Empathy.

Well you got me good there. Most people don't know that being able to count is proof of "love, self sacrifce, and empathy like a dog" and not just you whiffing out terribly. Let this be a lesson to all of your haters. But it is true and one of the main reasons I won't eat a calculator.
But on a serious note, you are either so dumb you think counting to 6 is proof of love and empathy or you are a troll. Either case I wash my hands of you.

Yeah I know this Pro Dog Propaganda on the internet is getting annoying. Snowflake Youtube vids on Trending! SJW's are so annoying.
For what it's worth, horse meat was commonly eaten by nomadic tribes, the very people whose livelihoods would have depended the most on horses, so there's no real contradiction between depending on an animal for survival and also eating it as food. From the perspective of a modern city dweller, it's a bit different because you would pretty much never actually encounter chickens, pigs, or cattle and so dogs and cats would be special since they'd be the only animals you would really empathize with on any level. However, most of the people who do still eat dogs and cats would not have this same perspective and would probably see them the same way as any other animal.
This topic is getting debated to death. Both in previous Yulin threads and stuff like this.
Its nothing wrong with eating dogs, especially not the ones bred for consumption. What is wrong is malpractice and bad treatment of the protein. It happens in all protein sources, but when its dogs we get all our panties in a twist.
Everything underlined has nothing to do with the question of the moral opposition to eating dog and everything bold is flat out not true. Soooooooooo yeah...
Here's a moral issue....pigs and humans are extremely similar in physiology. So much so, we can share organs and numerous diseases.
hahahahaha, that it is horseshit.
You know precisely dick and fuck all compared to what I know about farmed animals in the US. As a person that has a farmed animal sanctuary and who has actually rescued farmed animals from conditions so bad it gave a cop PTSD, I can confidently declare I know exactly what I'm talking about.

There are laws against speeding. Does that mean speeding doesn't happen or rarely does?
The USDA is understaffed and actually at the mercy of the major slaughterhouses. The slaughterhouses dictate when and where the USDA can inspect the various parts of the operation. Look into the book called Fast Food Nation.
Also, google:
- what these actual rules call for
- factory farm line speeds
- egg farming and cage free egg farming
- the life of a dairy cow
- captive bolt gun
You do the research, so you know I'm not lying.

Ok, roosters will fight predators to protect their hens, they will also mourn if one dies. I've seen these things with my own eyes. Further, when we mow the chicken yard, one chicken will walk in front of the mower slowly because all the other chickens are eating the grubs/seeds/etc being kicked up by the mower. Then the one keeping the mower going slow, will get to eat while one that was eating will take that one's place.
As long as something is edible I would say feel free to eat it.
I think I won't go any further than hot-dogs.
