Sickening! Rab Bhalla Kare!

[Sinister]

i know many famers in the US and Canada!!!! none of them practice agriculture like what they showed in the video??????? Ive seen it first hand (many of the agriculturist who are close relatives of mine, love their animals--> usually boast about them and are proud of them)

The video showed an extremely bias veiw (showed a few bad apples of the industry)

The video shows extreme torturous ways of animal treatment (but i know for a fact that the majorty of dairy agriculturists are not like that)

ei- will not kill pack animals into tight buildings and milk them by hurting them!

as for the slaughter industry--- that was horrible (its the awful price of mass production, but their are consumer choices you can make)

animals should be treated with more respect (more sanitation)......and we as North American consumers should be ready to pay more for our BIG Mac's and chicken burgers.

FOR THOSE WHO ARE AGAINST THESE PRACTICES SHOULD SUPPORT THE ORGANIC FOOD MARKET---THEY USE NO GROWTH HORMONES IN THEIR ANIMALS AND THERE ANIMAL FEEDS ARE ALL ORGANIC AS WELL, organic chicken rearers use open door environments to breed most of there chickens.

Lets not taint the entire agricultural industry as negative....when it is the consumer that is driving the farmers and slaughter houses to do what they do!!!!

[disguised]

is a cow teh only source for getting milk.. or could u get it from a goat??? :lol:

[SSM]

er does it matter, the goat prob dont get treated any better.

i would stop drinking milk but i need to drink it.

but everytime i pour that milk into the glass it makes me think what the cow went thru and how he cursed the bloke as the cow was being milked.

not only is it extremely sad but it also makes me wander how it affects us humans who drink the milk of a cow that was suffering at the time.

i think the best thing to do about drinking milk, would be to go to a farm personally, a farm which u know treats their animals well, and collect milk from their every week, some farmers are really nice and mite even let u milk the cow yourself :TH:

and obviously avoid all meats, egg etc. that goes without saying

I was Mr Sikhnet's blog and I came across a link....

MEAT NOWADAYS IS NO BETTER THAN HALAAL MEAT (IF NOT PERHAPS WORSE!) - Please Watch!

And you are no better than Halal meat eaters!

What the hell is wrong with a hardcore minority of people on this forum?

Shall I show you links to how you get your milk and vegetables?

How natural habiitats are destroyed for animals, and how pestcides are used to poison insects, and how these poisons affect birds, foxes etc, so that you can have a holier than though attitude to meat eaters.

You don't want to eat meat fine. I didn't eat it for many years. Truth be, told I hardly ever eat it, apart from when I'm training. BUT this brand of Vege-Fascism and Meat eater bashing is getting a little hard to stomach, now and especially when it has been established time and time again, meat eating or vegetarianism has nothing to do with Sikhism and everything to do with the individual.

PS Admin, how long are you going to allow topics on this issue time and time again. Kill this issue once and for all.

[SSM]

er... i don't think this topic was started with sikhi in mind.

basically, most ppl find halal gross cos the animal suffers a lot and now the person posting just saying that 'guess what, its not just animals that are killed in the halal way that suffer'.

nothing to do with what sikhi says on being veggie or not.

i found the way they milk cow gross etc etc etc.

[Singh132]

The suffering cows go through in the dairy industry is pretty sad.

The solution is to buy certified organic milk. There are standards that organic farmers have to meet including humane treatment of the animals and hormone free milk. The cows have to have access to pastures etc. The milk costs about double the regular price, but I think it's worth it.

Randeep Singh,

The majority of amritdharis think eating meat is not acceptable in Gurmat. Get over it.

[Heera Singh]

hmmm.. organic milk... i don't mind payin the extra few bucks... what companies provide it?... and where can it be bought in canada?...(toronto)..?
