phragmentation

how did i miss this…?

uh thanks governator, for caring about the ducks and geese… geez people, get a life. if you don’t like foie gras, don’t eat it!!! as Mayor Daley said: “We have children getting killed by gang leaders and dope dealers [...] We have real issues here in this city. And we’re dealing with foie gras? Let’s get some priorities.”

More info on foie gras

“this traditional French dish has been produced by a number of cultures for over 4,000 years. Force-feeding began in ancient Egypt in 2390 B.C. to produce plumper geese. The process is designed to mimic the gorging that ducks and geese do naturally in preparation for migration.”

i don’t get it… these are ducks and geese! their goal in life, as it is for all meat products, is to become delicious food. how can this be worth objecting to? they might as well ban all meat production, including fish… after all, death is inhumane!

[ca on Thu, 01 Jun 2006 at 20:35:02] did you know that the cattle raised in hawaii are shipped alive to the mainland to be slaughtered, and then the meat is shipped back to hawaii? how’s that for cruelty… spending weeks packed into a animal cargo ship! i think i’d rather be a force fed duck!
