Some have higher standards than you, thankfully. Some people find it reprehensible to slaughter and consume companion animals. Sorry, I can't help that you have such low moral standards.
Pigs are smarter than dogs,can be quite cute...but taste good.
So we should eat them.

If you had bothered to even glance at where I live before you posted, you would realize that the area I am in is one of the biggest breeding/training areas in the US, and has been hit particularly hard by the recession.
I have to go take my old mans truck, load it with hay and feed, and go deliver it to one of the many rescues in the area now.
Have a good day.
In that case, you already know the issues...why did you ask:

How incredibly sad.
Whats the benefit here?
You should know the benefit, as many others have posted.

I'm opposed to the slaughter of any animal. However, I have a great deal of difficulty making a moral distinction between the killing of a "companion" animal, and the killing of a food-source animal. For the most part, that distinction has varied by geography, custom, and the scarcity of the normal food supply. We seem to have created a hierarchy of species' value, based largely upon our own psychological and emotional needs.
Yes, I am. We are all living creatures, are we not? I already know I will be in the minority opinion on this, but that is my opinion and I stand by my convictions. You are free to disagree.
