It's obvious that neckarb has never been on the killing floor of a meat packing house.
That's anything but a humane way to kill animals...yet if you eat meat sold in the nice cellophane wrapped packages in the grocery store...you're supporting that practice.
I'm a meat eater, and while I'd prefer that the animals were killed quickly and as painlessly as possible, I know that it's not always the way it happens.
Hell, even when hunting deer and elk, sometimes a shot goes a bit awry and doesn't kill the animal instantly. I hate having to track a wounded animal...sometimes for hours...it's a PITA, but it's the right thing to do.
I've hunted with guys who thought it was ok to let them go off to die. They usually ended up being banished from our hunting camp...and one of us had to track the animal and take care of it properly.
