As far as I'm concerned the farmer has already taken responsibility for the slaughter. I'm just buying a packet of meat. That said as a consumer I try to support the right kind of farming.

Fairplay and good on you for supporting ethical farming, even I must admit that Animals who've had a good life produce better meat.

Would you like humans being killed for food by lions? Does the thought of a lion sinking it's sharp teeth into your leg or neck to rip a succulent raw chunk of meat off make you happy?
Soldato
No not really but then it would probably be my own fault for getting too close.
How appropriate, you fight like a cow.

When you look at a time line of human evolution. Over the hundreds of thousands of years, its probably only this past 20 years or so (a tiny little spec on the timeline) that we started becoming much more righteous as to an animals welfare.
Granted, in years gone by animals were probably left to their own devices and then hunted (as opposed to say battery farms). But I doubt if they were ever killed in a human manner.
There is a great deal being done worldwide now to ensure that we do treat animals reared for produce in a much more humane way. However I for one don't see how letting a chicken reared for produce and left to run around freely for 30 days and then be killed is an awful lot different to an RSPCA approved battery farm where they have a decent'ish life and are bred for the same purpose. Either way they are killed for meat and in arguably an "humane manner" during both methods of rearing.
Fair play to those who choose to be more righteous and pro animal rights. I have no issue with it and respect your views. Just don't start throwing round comments like "you have blood on your hands for eating meat" etc. Lets not forget that we are built and programmed to be carnivore's. I for one simply look upon it as the way the food chain is and how many more animals are likely killed in a humane way these days than they were many years go. Right way or wrong way, its the same end result and so I don't really see much cause for debate...

Animals die then we eat them. We kill animals to eat them. I don't see the problem, it keeps me fed, the food is good, happy days.
I've hunted, gutted and hung game - as well as eaten it. I've been fishing and cooked the fish I caught - it's just the way it is. Food chain. In the wild many men/women/kids have been eaten by bugs, animals, predators, fish, etc... we just eat more of them than they eat of us.
There are so many sensitive little bunnies on this forum! Bless.

Some people maybe...
only if it did it in a proper and humane manor, other wise the other lions might say mean things about it on an internet forum.
