chickens are profoundly stupid, basically dirty habits, and there are endless numbers of them, mostly in ugly captivity. Yet humans are so competitive to any other meat eaters that 'zero tolerance use of deadly force' is accepted at face-value in a thousand casual conversations. Is it any wonder that more than half of all other large mammals are now gone forever?
- tomcam 4y agoI think you’re largely right. Except somehow many of us fall in love with chickens once we care for them. And mine sure aren’t in ugly captivity. I say these things mostly in support of your point, because my attitude is profoundly irrational. OTOH I have no problem with farming animals humanely.
- mistrial9 4y agoI had happy chickens myself for years; they had a great time in their dirty chicken way, and I ate some eggs too. I distinctly recall thinking about predators at the time, and I totally stand by my comment..
