Would you be willing to go to a slaughterhouse and kill a cow? Do you eat meat?

Carissimi70-79, F
I no longer eat beef or pork, but I think a trip to the slaughter house would be a good thing for most. At least some would never eat meat again.

The best visit would be when they take new borns away from their mothers. These babies look terrified. All they want is the warmth and protection of their mother, and to suckle, but all they get is carried off to a shed on their own where they stay until slaughtered for veal and lamb. What kind of humanity kills baby animals like this? It's barbaric, and the poor babies are terrified and bewildered.
[c=#BF0080]Oh, I'm not denying that it doesn't happen in other slaughterhouses.. I'm just saying we don't do that ourselves.. I think it's wrong to take them away from their mothers when they're too young.[/c]

@pinkrainbowkisses: I think it's wrong to kill babies period.
@Carissimi: [c=#BF0080]I do agree.[/c]
[c=#BF0080]I don't slaughter them personally.. but my family does. We eat a variety of meat as well.[/c]

Been to a slaughterhouse, and no I would not personally kill a cow. But I do occasionally eat cows (I'd like to be vegan but I enjoy salami.)

@3venus: Very possible. If you get stuck, i have a website you can visit to buy them online. Let me know if you want it.

@HoraceGreenley: Okay, cool. Can I just acknowledge the fact that we've carried on a conversation about cured meats on a tread about slaughtering cows. 馃槅

@3venus: Works for me!

I've been to a slaughterhouse. Personally, I think they should be killed differently, but I'm sure they have their reasons.
Carissimi70-79, F
Their reasons are they don't care. It makes no difference to them that the animals are terrified, and know something bad is happening. And all for the sake of efficiency and money. It's disgusting.
