    I'd quote Dennis Leary here, Cathy, but somehow I don't think some would find the humor in it.

    I love Dennis Leary but I am not sure what you're referring to...PM it to me?

    If they have to, humane killing is the way to do it..and they certainly don't. Some places have the equivalent of picking a live lobster from a tank...if you follow me.

    Yes, it bothers me that it's done - but more, it's HOW it is done. I think our commercial cattle are better kept and slaughtered than the dogs and cats in Asian restaurants.

    However, China and other countries have great numbers of pet lovers as well...so this may change from within.

    I wouldn't count on this have you looked in to the cattle industry at all? Its actually very disturbing, we have no right to be judgemental.
    don't breed or buy while shelter dogs die....

    I have been frosted!

    Thanks Kfamr for the signature!

    I have to agree with Caseysmom.. the cattle industry is not what I would call humane.

    I don't really think any animal killing industry is what I would call humane. It's a means to an end to get the population fed.

    Here's two more things that 'will not be served' during the Games.

    A news report from a paper-can't remember which one but it's not a mainland China pub- wrote a story about they 'police' going to bars and having the owners sign notes saying they would not serve blacks or Mongols any alcohol.

    Nice, eh?
