No, you missed it by a mile.
Killing pigs in a respectful way for food or medical research - ok.
Killing pigs for medical science in a unnecessary, disrespectful way that causes unnecessary tortuous pain to them while doing so- bad.
- ben_w 4y agoNot that it contradicts your core argument, but I'd be surprised if the number of animals slaughtered in a way that fails the official legal standard for ethical, but nobody noticed for one reason or another, is less than 0.1% of the total.
- fastball 4y agoHow do you kill something respectfully? Bow before you shoot it in the head? And why would that matter? "Unnecessary" is a value judgement made by you, not an objective property of their death. They died for the purpose of furthering science and medical research – many people would consider that necessary even if fewer mistakes could've been made.
