Current Events > If you eat meat, you have to kill animals yourself from now on or not eat meat

(+) Yeah! (+)

My meat consumption would definitely drop. Maybe meat would go back to being a treat as opposed to just an expected part of every meal.

There is a smll but significant chance i'd give it up altogether.

my meat consumption would probably increase actually. if i kill a pig, ive got a whole lot of meat now. normally when i go shopping ill only buy like a pound of bacon.

Grew up in a farm in the Caribbean. By the time I was 12 I had already killed rabbits, chickens, pigs, goats and a lamb.

There's an interesting disconnect with many or even most meat eaters that nevertheless couldn't kill an animal because it would be too distressing for them.

It's a (imo) valid criticism of meat-eaters, that we're too far removed from the suffering of animals and that we're not taking responsibility for the damage/harm/welfare of animals.

Few things annoy me as much as when someone throws away and wastes meat. A living thing had to die for what's on that plate, throwing it away is a total disconnect and disrespect of where your food is coming from
