Suggestion for the Animal Liberation Front issue

15-11-2003, 14:03
I'm vegetarian. I simpathyze with the ALF-like organizations. But I'm not a dictatorial fanatic, so I don't want to persecute ALF, neither I want to ban meat eating en bloc - and being animal friendly, I don't want to approach the problem of cruelty against animals in a strictly economical viewpoint as it hasn't any use for the animals. So I took the compromising opinion, and will accept that. But really, I would crack on industrial slaughtering, and would shut it down. If someone wants to eat meat, it is his/her right - but he/she must kill the food him/herself. It would greatly reduce meat eating itself, while doesn't effect Civil Rights and doesn't harm the animal breeders' income too much - and if someone must kill an animal with his own hands, he/she would make greater efforts to do it quickly and painless.

Thank you.

That's what the dismiss key is for.

Actually, it can't simultainiously destroy the market for meat products and not harm the breeders income.

I wanted to do something about it, not simply run away from the problem. :)

I do know that it hurts the breeders' interest, but not so strongly.
