Exactly.  The same people on the other thread who somehow manage to bring Muslims into a thread about a homophobic bus driver. 8 minutes ago, Halibut said: If anyone is really committed to minimising animal cruelty they'd just stop eating animals - anything short of that is just arguing about the minutiae.

No. Absolutely irrelevant. I don't have to be a vegetarian/vegan to be concerned about animal cruelty. It's as stupid as claiming vegetarians/vegans don't have the right to criticize bad farming practice.

Well, if certain groups are over-represented in these actions they deserve some extra attention. Whether that is child abuse, animal cruelty...

What parts do you disagree with?  I suspect some of it comes down to a) not understanding that the majority of halal slaughter uses stunning, and b) having an unrealistic view of how slaughterhouses operate generally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I don't think I've ever seen some real numbers. And still, this is certainly not true for subset of gang-related grooming. Anyway, this is a discussion for another time, we should stay on topic.

Most sexual abuse occurs within families, most is committed by men, the overwhelming majority of families are white in the UK, therefore the majority of sexual abuse is committed by white men.

So you don't have any.  Any relevant comments on meat production and animal cruelty? Edited August 16, 2019 by Branyy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

You can't have large scale meat production without cruelty to animals. If you really care about animals, don't eat them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

If you really care about animals, don't eat them. That's false. And I've also given you counter example above. And just for you, I'll add another one - Amputation will always cause trauma to the patients. So let's perform that without anesthesia because patients will suffer anyway.
