    I'm with you. I prefer my animals to be healthy before I eat them. Better for us, better for them.

    Yet nobody complains about vegetarians who eat their victim while it is still alive, sometimes in the presence of their immediate family. I refer to this barbaric practice as kingdomism.

    Not to mention that horrid business of cutting off the arms and legs, and then placing the suffering morsel into the fridge where it can linger for DAYS before dying.

    I think it's important to not only respect all species equally, but all taxonomic kingdoms as well.
