Comments

I have unfortunately had to delete a number of comments in response to some posts. This blog was started for the sole purpose of providing information and support for vegans - it is NOT a forum for meat-industry activists or for those who wish to peddle infantile nonsense such as "it is a common misconception that animals suffer when you slaughter them, it's a painless process". Only someone lacking any sense of compassion, or a supporter of slaughter-for-profit would come out with rubbish like that - how is it painless to be electrocuted, then have your throat slashed whilst conscious (because the electrocution didn't work), and then dumped in a vat of scalding water and be roasted alive? Doesn't sound all that painless to me, but maybe I'm missing something, hey?

For the record, the process described above is an objective fact, backed by a fairly hefty volume of unimpeachable evidence, and it is the unfortunate - and unacceptable - reality for millions of chickens every year. Maybe you are happy to support such abuse and to invent whatever excuses you need in order to avoid facing up to it - but some of us are a bit more honest and decent than that, and are not prepared to accept the unacceptable.

Anyway...if you have something sensible and intelligent to contribute, then please feel free to do so. But if all you can come up with is excuses for supporting abuse of animals and the environment because you're too lazy or uncaring to change, then I'm just going to delete your comments - so don't waste your time. :-)
