Um... This one time I had a dream where I was going to be physically harmed. In another one of my dreams, I accidentally tried to open up two .pdf documents at the same time and had to wait for Adobe Reader to open. - velvethead, on 01/31/2008, -2/+16I am always amazed at how callous some comments can be. I don't judge you for eating meat, but how someone can watch this and not feel at least some empathy is scary.
- dcmusicfusion, on 01/31/2008, -2/+15Wow...that was well done. Scary, scary stuff. Free range baby, free range! And organic...
- midoritsuru, on 01/31/2008, -1/+14Even if you like meat and choose to consume it, it's foolish not to consider the effects on you of eating anemic, disease-ridden flesh that was probably pumped with fear-induced adrenalin for its entire living existence. Don't digg this comment down just because you may not like what I'm saying...man up and accept the realities and consequences of eating meat and animal products produced in this way.
- christoast, on 09/04/2008, -4/+14Harder to watch then 2girls1cup. I am for meat but not not like this.
- weehead, on 01/31/2008, -7/+15I'll still eat it
- mikesbaker, on 01/31/2008, -0/+8When I grow up I'm going to Bovine University.
- djepik, on 01/31/2008, -0/+6hahaha, I feel your pain!
But seriously, try Foxit Reader. http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php - Boshow, on 01/31/2008, -1/+7I had a dream once, that a hamburger was eating me!
- mxpx720, on 01/31/2008, -0/+6I grew up on a farm. One of the "mass producing" ones. I can say people who treat the animals like that are in the minority. Not only is the meat worthless if it's bruised, you actually get charged for the animal and have to pay out. Don't believe everything you see on the internet, even if alec baldwin is the narrator.
- inactive, on 01/31/2008, -0/+60. We lived 250,000 years without industrial farming. Third-world countries do NOT have industrial farming. Only rich and well developped countries do this, and we don't need it.
Do you know how many people on earth could live from domestic farming? The only difference in terms of production is who gets the money. Industrial farming produces 6,000,000 pigs a year, 200 people profit, 1,000,000 pigs are wasted. Domestic and de-centralized farming produces 5,000,000 pigs a year, 100,000 people profit, 0 pigs are wasted. - turbopro, on 01/31/2008, -1/+6I dont know whats more sick, the video or the ***** pimple add. Come on digg...
- marioday, on 01/31/2008, -0/+5guess i'll reprogram myself to be a veggie.
- inactive, on 01/31/2008, -1/+6It's not about health problems it's about living with yourself you turd. I'm a hunter, I eat meat every single day. But I couldn't live with myself if I supported an industry that tortures millions of sensitive beings every single day. There's a difference between raising animals for consumption and what you saw in this video.
When I kill a deer or raindeer when I'm in the North, I feel bad for the animal. I really do. It's heartbreaking for me. So I pick an individual that doesn't have any kids, I pick a reject, kill it, the species becomes stronger, etc. These animals aren't stupid. They feel. They cry. They know their relatives and will look for them. So I try to kill them as quickly and painlessly as I can. It's about respect and it's about being a human that feels.
What you saw is entirely new. It didn't happen that way before megafarms started appearing. We have pig farms in Quebec with 50,000 pigs in a single building. The pigs eat each other, eat their own ***** and they piss and ***** in their own food. They waste thousands of pigs a year. About a quarter of the animals they kill won't even be sold.
It's an absolutely disgusting practice. And we just plain don't need it. The meat would taste better and would be of much greater quality if the animals we raised in free range. This is about a complete disregard for life in order to maximize profit. - SebHughes, on 01/31/2008, -0/+4What has become of us.
- floridiot2, on 01/31/2008, -0/+4They straight up cut that bull's balls off! Holy *****.
- romistrub, on 01/31/2008, -0/+3Whatever, man. As a poor-ass student, I am not willing to shell out a damn cent for eating food that gets "treated well" before it turns into food. I'm still waiting for the ability to grow animal-less meat... then everybody can be happy (except, inevitably, the indefinitely-angry religious goons).
- inactive, on 01/31/2008, -3/+6thank god i eat twice as much meat to cancel one of you out.
- stfucupcake, on 01/31/2008, -2/+5Nope. Nothing fixed. Farming practices are the same as ever. It sucks to be a pig/cow/chicken/lamb. I'm not a PETA person but I am a vegetarian.
- edstate, on 01/31/2008, -0/+3Overpopulated and addicted to artificially low prices for, among other things, meat.
- Vodka2389, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2You are what you eat.
- destro713, on 01/31/2008, -2/+4The way to battle this kind of cruelty is not to become a vegetarian. The industry is too powerful to be fought from the bottom up. You have to get at the politicians first, and push for a political change that will then run down into the slaughterhouses. I'm sure the meat industry in the EU isn't great but it's definitely better than in the US, and I'm pretty sure it didn't get that way because people were boycotting inhumane slaughterhouses and cutting into their profits. The profits will always be there because most people can be counted on to not give a *****. You have to bring the hammer down from above.
Vegetarianism will help you have some more traction in making your point when you stand up to the politicians, of course, but in the short-term, the meat industry does not live or die on YOUR money. - KraftDinner101, on 01/31/2008, -2/+4If the entire world went organic we would have "to destroy 3 billion living human beings and forcibly abort most of the babies now being born in the world”

I'd trust family farmers over corporate over any day. Save the whales!
- Errdoth, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2Put much better than I could have
- wrenchone, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2I don't understand calling less-processed foods organic. All food is organic. You and I are organic. Anything made of carbon is organic.
- dash1185, on 01/31/2008, -1/+3Guess what ? Most people in the world don't eat meat because they are too poor to do so. I think he was talking about organic meat. Besides, there is a difference between overproduction (especially when you see the price) and waste and regulated production.
- inactive, on 02/01/2008, -0/+2A number of my relatives were farmers and all treated the livestock well even though it was being raised specifically as food. To treat any living creature so inhumanely regardless of use or purpose is beyond me.
- fasda, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2you know if you cut out meat for this video cut medicine out too cause every drug is tested on animals and boy do they suffer and stop being a filthy hypocrite.
- grungegbunny, on 01/31/2008, -1/+3How can any human being stand by as these animals scream in torment and pain? Its natural that we eat meat but there has to be a much more humane way of doing it.
- romistrub, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Why pain? That's as arbitrary as any distinction. Why not "self awareness"? It's arbitrary no matter how you spin it...
- retrolab, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1So the guy standing on the pig is a 'regular' guy....whatever bud. I know I couldn't do that but it comes down to the dollar bill. People do it to get paid, people eat final product because that's all they can afford. A trapped cycle with no sense of regulation.
- imruaz, on 01/31/2008, -3/+4I will be more careful what we buy!
- bcclist, on 06/11/2008, -0/+1don't shoot.
- Autofac, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1"Registrant Name:Mark Pavlak

PETA can bite the big one. - fasda, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1they'd be to aggressive other wise
- zephyr42, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1It's ok man..... i don't dream that often either. And it usually involves my cat and butter. (if you put butter on a cats back and drop them, they float)
- fasda, on 01/31/2008, -1/+2if you cut meat out for the concern of animals and did not also medicine then your a hypocrite animals are the back bone of medical research and consequently suffer. if you did then congratulations your not a hypocrite but are insane.
- romistrub, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1wtf... your very valid point is obscured by your confusing english...
- zephyr42, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1For every vegetarian I meet/know I eat twice as much meat to counter balance natures offset. And for every vegan, I go hunting.
- Neopublican, on 01/31/2008, -1/+2When the contents of my meat freezer rotted after hurricane Rita, I too almost went on a temporary hiatus.
- romistrub, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Yessir, same here. I work out regularly and, as such, I require about 100g of protein daily. I can only get so much from those expensive supplements. The rest of it comes from (imo) the most delicious meat ever invented by jesus: chicken breast. I eat a box of 9 breasts a week, and I don't feel bad in the slightest.
- mxpx720, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1You do realized the "finer" quality meats are generally 4 month old whatevers?
- christoast, on 09/04/2008, -0/+1I'm going to assume you dont know what a double negative is.
- fasda, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1why would they wait till it was born they'd give the cow an abortion as soon as they could tell to save time and get the cow pregnant again months sooner
- stonebear, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1...
- fasda, on 01/31/2008, -1/+2I'm going to assume you meant that double negative and do want meat like this and give you the digg
- romistrub, on 01/31/2008, -1/+2But... meat is delicious! I just had a sirloin steak last night, and a chicken breast wrap today. I don't know where I'd be without meat.
- SpaceDreamer, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1some people have a brain and draw the line where it should logically be drawn:
at creatures that actually feel pain. - ibar, on 01/31/2008, -8/+9more people need to see this video.
