why not just gather up and protest at one single slaughterhouse instead of recruiting more vegitarians? itd be alot more effective.
I think you are mis-informed. 1000 people protesting a slaughterhouse does nothing to stop meat eating. The slaughterhouse will continue to operate. The workers enjoy their fairly well paying jobs and are likely big meat eaters. 1000 people who decide to become vegetarians no longer support the slaughterhouse industry and thus it becomes non-profitable and obsolete. Lead through your own actions.
well, here the slaughterhouses are nowhere near where the people are. They are pretty isolated, so not many people even know where they are. No one would even see the protest. I also would refuse to be near the slaughterhouses, as it obviously smells like dead rotting animals.
yes, i don't believe you'd convince very many slaughterhouse workers that meat is a bad thing because their salary depends on that very meat and as 3littlebirds said, how often is it that you see a slaughter house? perhaps our surrounding are different.. isn't the point of protesting to convey your message to as many people as you possible? like people who will actually listen.. no one is gonna be convinced at a slaughter house.. unless you just picked up random people and brought them inside slaughter houses i guess, like on a guided death tour heh
around here everyone would think it was an anti-immigrant or a pro union rally. Closest large scale slaughterhouses are in Greeley. It's slaughter house and uni based town. Now, having information in Denver/ Boulder will net far more people who will stop consuming at least the direct products of killing. Also, your post assumes that all vegetarians are so EXCLUSIVELY based on the killing aspect. Many vegetarians are simply so for their own health and many would snarf a steak in a minute if it would not up their cholesterol or chances for colon cancer (etc),
yea you vegetarians really need to make a better alternative.. something that actually tastes better than meat ya know
This has nothing do with the post but let me just say that there are plenty of damn good vegetarian meals. They don't have to be meat alternatives, in fact its tastier if its not. Try some vegetarian Indian food at a real Indian restaurant and then we'll see what you have to say =)
THere's no such thing as authentic Indian outside of the Subcontinent. What we get is Anglo-Indian. Unless you happen upon a South Indian place.....
Seems to me like eating meat is a God given right, and I don't know how to go about protesting a God given right
