I can honestly say I have never been this disgusted

[Thaius]

Admittedly, this level of animal cruelty is kind of annoying. But to be completely honest, I'm against anything PETA stands for as a matter of principle. Morons.

 

[Enzeru92]

yup that how it is for me because even if PETA or any animal right activist try to do anything they'll just screw it up or protest be in the end they can't do anything cause its in China

 

[cambodiancam]

Probably staged by PETA the guy skinning them is the vice president.

 

[LiftYourSkinnyFists]

PETA uncover stuff like this but they're seen too much like an activist group compared to an animal rights group.

I would be a vegetarian but I see it like this, since the animal is dead... If I don't eat it that animal died for nothing, If I eat him... at least then he's died to help me.

 

[Internet Kraken]

I'm surprised there haven't been any "lost faith in humanity" comments yet.

Anyways, I wouldn't trust anything the OP links me to if it's from PETA. They will alter any issue to make it favor their side of the argument. So I'm not going to bother watching the video.

Of course that's just a bad excuse. The real reason why I won't watch it is because I'm a massive coward with a weak stomach.

China also sends people to labor camps, do you think they give a shit about some animals?

You know who doesn't send people to labour camps?

The EU.

I'm sorry I couldn't watch the whole thing it was just disgusting and horid. I believe it's alright to eat and use animals, but I see no reason to torture them while I do so. What's the point of keeping them alive while skinning them anyway? It couldn't provide any benifit to the product and only makes the work more difficult. Would be so hard to shoot them in the head first? You don't use that part anyway. What's the point beating them too? Does it make them feel godd to hurt things? I hope those people are kept away from others because I could easily see them doing the same things to people if given the chance. What the fuck is the point of that?! I knew it was bad, but god what the fuck!? This shouldn't shock me, the Japanese scale cook and eat fish while they are still alive (chefs are trained to keep them alive through the porcess) on the grounds that it's fresher that way (see bullshit excuse). It's also not uncommon for them to rip apart and eat a still living, uncooked lobster like a pack of starved zombies. It's just sick and has no place in civilized society or any society for that matter. Those people should be beaten, see how they like it. I would laugh at them the whole time, maybe even take part. Oh who am I kidding? I gladly pick up a heavy stick and bludgeon the fuckers senseless.

 

[Harlemura]

I can thing of things more disgusting than that, but whatever, let's roll with it.
This kinda thing would almost be acceptable if it was for food.
Anyway, couldn't they just buy a gun or something? If you're going to brutally murder something, at least do it quick. Then the little suckers won't squirm as much.
I've sickened myself a little with this post...

i guess its pretty cruel... but hey, theres a lot of kids dying of starvation out there... who cares about them! lets worry about the dogs

yes having one injustice in the world totally makes another Ok.

of course not, its horrible to see those poor animals being skinned alive. but i hate when people concentrate more on the suffering of animals when there's so much people suffering not so far away...

 

[Nmil-ek]

How much would iut cost to humainly kill them really? A bullet to the head would do it even.

 

[appleblush]

And besides, in a world where people will sooner vote to give chickens more space before letting gay people marry (see California), stuff like this seems really small. People do care more about animal equality than people equality, at least here on the U.S. West Coast.

Yeah. Kids dying of starvation "Out there". Off in Ethiopia (not to bash Ethiopia). There are dogs dying of starvation "right here". So yes, let's worry about the dogs. I sure as fuck don't plan to drag your ass out of a burning building, so you'd best make the dogs happy.

 

[Azraellod]

Skinning alive? That's sickening. Kill them first if you really have to.

I don't care if it gives a better cut on the fur, that is completely unacceptable. I'm not watching the video, as I have no desire to throw up on my laptop.

 

[Finnboghi]

im a human, i eat other animals

That wasn't actually linked to the OP - unless, of course, you eat your meat whilst still alive.

Fur, I don't like, but its 10 times worse when the animal was alive WHILST being skinned. I do like my meat, but I don't want it so the animal suffered on route or was still alive when I started munching.

im a human, i eat other animals

Does the fact that they are a source of food or clothing for us make it okay to torture them? No. It should be done painlessly. We can justify killing them for food and the like, but they shouldn't have to suffer in the process.

Perhaps if you took a step back and actually looked at things objectively, you'd make an incredible realization; sensationalist news ignores anything that contradicts their point.

Namely, the fact that human beings are the only animal that kills it's food before doing anything with it.

If a pack of coyotes killed those dogs, then they would likely live much longer while being eaten.

Not to say that they should be made to suffer, however we aren't the only animal who can be cruel.

 

[Samurai Goomba]

This is hardly China's only problem. Their whole industrial structure is running on an early 1900s US model which badly needs correction.

 

[Mozared]

Oh stop whining about China already, the only reason they do it is because people in our society demand the goods.

That said, I can't really work out why they have to skin the animals alive. I'm not a professional on skinning but I wouldn't say it made that much of a difference if they killed them before starting the actual skinning.

I'm not normally a big animal rights protester, but I had this fowarded to me and nearly threw up in complete and utter revulsion. Don't watch this video if you get sick easily. Its a video on the chinese fur farms and the horrible things happening there. They have been skinning the animals alive, which they say is "for a better cut". I apologise deeply if this offends anyone but it really should, this has to be stopped. Im not asking for signatures or anything I just want to throw this out there.
Anyway here's the link, again don't watch if you have an easily upsetable stomach. http://www.peta.org/feat/ChineseFurFarms/index.asp
Mods: If this video is too graphic please tell me.

Ahem i smell "schleichwerbung" for PETA...and actually this both has to stop. Needless cruelty and PETA.


"Im not asking for signatures or anything I just want to throw this out there."

that reminded me of the guys on the street: "No don't give me money we don't take it - Here's a flyer (link) with all info and account data if you really want to help us..."...HAHA

"I'm not normally a big animal rights protester,(...)" ahem then what the hell are you doing on the PETA website?


jeez...let me alone with this bullshit....
maybe you start focusing on "human"-problems and when they are solved; there's time for
cleaning fur farms...
