aneliane Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 Not in Thailand...in some small areas in Isaan only. It is like you would say that Canadians slaughter seals in horrible ways. Same....just a very small area of very insane people, not the general population. Barn Tarae is a village in Sakon Nakorn, a province in southeast part of Thailand - 647 kilometers from Bangkok. It's a THAI village, not in Isaan check out the link Southeast? I doubt dog is halal.... Take a map....more NORTH isn't possible. And Isaan is also Thai!!!! Reality check.... still it's happening in Thailand the country you live in kills 500 dogs a week for meat/fur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This hierarchy (1 human 2 the rest ) has been proven ethically wrong as we ARE part of the animal kingdom, and it is the base of our current self destruction Have you seen Earthlings ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naam Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 still it's happening in Thailand the country you live in kills 500 dogs a week for meat/fur the country you seem hail from kills 16,000 horses a year (308 per week) for meat... French livestock associations — including those representing horse breeders and riders — note that over 95% of all horses in France are bred first and foremost for their ultimate marketing as meat. In 2008 alone, nearly 16,000 horses were slaughtered for that purpose in France — providing an income that riding centers, racing stables and other horse-related interests rely on to remain profitable. Horsemeat is also the main source of revenue for just over 1,000 horse-butcher shops in France, which were traditionally the only places in France to sell the meat, though in recent years, some ordinary butchers and food stores have also begun offering prepackaged cuts. Horsemeat brings in a tidy sum too: sales amounted to $238 million in 2005, the last year for which figures are available. http://www.time.com/...1950375,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not because there are sufferings all over the world that we should not condemn the one on our doorstep. Obviously they are loads of sufferings done to animals in my own country, and I was addressing that when I was there. But now I am in thailand so I address thai animal suffering.

Could have been an old horse though, it's not something I make a habit of eating. it's more like beef with a more filamentous texture and a distinct subtle taste. you have horse steak for example which are quite similar to beefsteak Edited July 27, 2012 by aneliane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cdnvic Posted July 27, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2012 I think the point many are trying to make here is that our taboos against certain meats are artificial, and widely varied. For you, a vegitarian, it will always seem wrong to eat any meat. For many others, it all comes down to their own feelings toward individual species. At the end of the day animals are animals, and none of us have the right to pick and choose which ones others use for sustinence based upon which ones we individually have an affection for. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
