Why not, start a topic on it man !
As locko24 said.
LisaP how many made in china/india/vietnam products did you buy this month?
do you buy chinese garlic? Do you know about their agricultural practices?
It's all nice and pretty to talk about things in a heated winter's classroom, but it achieves nothing.
Throwing around moral righteousness because of what you seen on your TV that disturbed your dinner for the next 2 weeks achieves nothing either.
As Ghandi said, "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated." And I firmly believe this, and think, perhaps, that the meaning extends not only to nations, but to individual people, too.
So, tell me how else am I to learn about the extreme cruelty being inflicted on animals in these buildings? Had it not been for the media coverage, I would never have known.
Indifferent,
You would be pleased to know that I am very capable of independent and critical thought.
You will also be pleased to know that I was not LED to care about this issue due to media coverage. I have always cared about animal welfare issues. What the media did, in this instance, and to great effect, was bring a hidden topic into the public arena. .......
I also don't agree with processing all that beef in Australia to create more jobs . The fact is wages are just too high to make it viable here .
So, where exactly and who exactly is willing to give up something to make this a viable solution. The answer of course at this stage, no-one is.

Did you see the 4 Corners program?
It's barbaric....stone age
There is no reason why the animals can't be first stunned
LisaP, I simply want to express my profound kudos for your input here.
But Lisa, you already knew.... remember this little chestnut below???
Repechage with a little consistency would be a nice touch
You only care about THIS issue because you have been LED to care by the media hype....This type of social conditioning only fuels the detachment we have with reality... like how did my steak get to the dinner plate. If we aren't TOLD, we often DON'T ask and therefore DON'T care..... are we then morally and ethically void without media prompting?
I can answer your question about HOW DO YOU KNOW, if you haven't been there or it is not in the media..... As an educator, I would expect you to know as well, so surely you are joking?
There are more than 2 information sources on this planet beyond your own eyes and the media....
Many people on here are quite informed on a broad range of topics and well versed in numerous industries regardless of what is or isn't said in the media.
BTW, I do care about animal welfare but in the context of everything else going on in the world, there are by far more important issues to boil the blood... but they aren't on your TV, so you will never really know unless you really care to find out
There are FAR MORE IMPORTANT issues that we implicitly accept everyday that are by FAR MORE ATROCIOUS than how a cow is delivered to the dinner table
I do not believe that you do care about animal welfare. If after having watched the videos of these animals dying a horrific death, you comment with:
...I can see that you hold no compassion for these animals at all.
And with that, I am going to bed!
Dunno - they are saying that stunning the beast is against halla and the animal must be fully conscious before going the knife.....as I said mate, don't know the ins and outs of halal technicalities - who makes that stuff up ??
