I realise this is a pretty deep and difficult topic. I'd be interested to know what you think about dogs bred and butchered for meat. I think China gets a lot of hate for this despite dogs being farmed for meat for thousands of years, even in BC. I can understand why a lot of westerners would be outraged by it. In our cultures, dogs are domesticated, often touted as "man's best friend". Over here, in our countries, dogs are loved as more than just another mammal.
However, cows and pigs and lamb are farmed and slaughtered for meat, leather, etc. Consumption of dog meat doesn't just happen in China. It happens in Vietnam, South Korea, (possibly, not 100%) Thailand, and other countries too. When you take the cute image of dogs out of the picture, and consider them as farmed in a similar manner to our own dead animals walking, what makes the dogs superior to pigs/cows/sheep/etc.? I'm discussing this because I watched a lot of videos tonight on YouTube about the topic. Most people can't back up the arguments and just cuss or say things like "YOU SHOULD BE EATEN YOU SICK ****ERS!"
Note: I am not supporting the dog meat industry. I'm just trying to understand both sides as I normally do and I'd like to hear your thoughts.
