OK, i'm really annoyed at the commentators on MSNBC for making a big deal about Palin being photographed at a turkey slaughtering business while turkeys were slaughtered.
This is what the meat industry is, and what offends me is that city dwellers think meat comes from the local Safeway/Jewel and get all outraged that Palin would support a turkey slaughtering business during thanksgiving.
I was especially disappointed in seeing Rachel Maddow jump on the pissing on Palin for being photographed in front of a slaughtered turkey bandwagen.
I know what most americans are eating for thanksgiving, and turkey slaughtering is a integral part of it. I was a vegetarian for many years, and still prefer to avoid meat. But never would I object to the humane slaughter of animals for food consumption. And in my mind, I think it is good to show the slaughter of food animals on television so that the american consumer can judge the practice for themselves if they so choose.
I think it is honest and admirable for Palin to support a local turkey merchant for producing goods which people want, and doing so openly. |
