Waterboarding for Uncooperative Cows!

[Camelopard]

What is the world coming to? Yes I eat meat, although if I had to kill my own I probably wouldn't. To me, meat comes in a plastic package from my local supermarket. Whilst I do realise that animals have to be killed to provide food, is the sort of treatment these animals have endured as reported in this article totally necessary?

Save the waterboarding for terrorism suspects :rolleyes: .

Follows on from a story about some ducks and chickens being killed and injured at a local school. I'm guessing that the perpetrators were children, how would you as parent deal with a situation like this if it was your child?

If these kids had easy access to firearms (as in some countries), next step would be to take said firearms to school and teach those teachers/other students that have pis*ed me/us/whatever off a lesson.

Killing cattle can only be done by skilled person in authorized abattoir by cutting down their neck using sharp knife. Any other method I don't think acceptable.

waterboarding usually used to wake up those lazy who spend most of time for sleeping, or to make those drunker conscious. ;)

Never asisted to the rite of killing a pig by countrymen but these days it's compulsory to obey the EU rules. However the peasants claim they'll do it the way they learnt from the past. Can't see the next video cos I'm at work but I suppose it's about the "traditional " way.

On the other hand tv news are full of cases of cruelty against animals, esp. against horses.
If you are hard enough to resist these images I suppose you'll agree with me these people can be hardly considered humans. But don't watch if you're too sensitive.

When I read this title, I though waterboarding was some kind of watersport.

What I don't understand is, if you clearly know these things are illegal, why the hell film it?

If you're talking about the films I posted the answer is easy. We have a gap in the legislation and these horrible guys risk only a moderate fine. The brute who mistreaded the cat was caught and was still laughing.

But these days as a result of so many films the parliament is working for a law in this field.

I must admit I haven't looked at the videos, I really can't abide any form of cruelty to animals (this includes us humans) and I'm sure I would just get angry. :mad:
