I'm sure he tastes a lot better! ls3mach FEB 17, 08:21 AM I'm not trying to eat my dogs; I'm torn here. Scientists say pigs are smarter than dogs, but I eat them. It is a weird line we've drawn. Blacktree FEB 17, 12:52 PM Keep in mind that a vast majority of those migrants are basically ghetto trash. To put things in perspective, it would be like a ghetto dweller from America immigrating to Europe, robbing a convenience store at gunpoint, and then saying "This is normal where I come from!" And technically, he's right. It is pretty normal for convenience stores to be robbed, in the sleaziest parts of town. And that is basically Europe's problem in a nutshell. They're letting ghetto trash into their countries, and expecting them to act like civilized people. Then the Europeans are shocked and horrified when the ghetto trash acts like ghetto trash. All I have to say about that is: DURRRHHH!!! Wichita FEB 17, 02:11 PM quote Originally posted by ls3mach: I'm not trying to eat my dogs; I'm torn here. Scientists say pigs are smarter than dogs, but I eat them. It is a weird line we've drawn. I don't understand why we can't accept that it may not be such a bad thing for us to raise dogs, cats or even horses as live stock for meat consumption by us humans. MidEngineManiac FEB 17, 04:15 PM Because those animals are our friends, family, companions. I might joke about BBQ *whatever* food, but in reality those little guys can bring a smile when nobody or nothing else can. Hell, back when we had horses I even had a pony in my living room. WASNT me that brought him there to get out of a storm, but it WAS kinda funny for a while. cliffw FEB 17, 04:58 PM quote Originally posted by ls3mach: I'm torn here.

I have seen no evidence that pigs are smarter than dogs, except maybe Arnold of Green Acres. Not that I doubt you but I have seen no evidence. My grandfather raised hogs/pigs, and horses and cows. dratts FEB 17, 05:00 PM quote Originally posted by Wichita: I don't understand why we can't accept that it may not be such a bad thing for us to raise dogs, cats or even horses as live stock for meat consumption by us humans. Wouldn't it be expensive meat? MidEngineManiac FEB 17, 05:16 PM quote Originally posted by cliffw: Let me see if I can clear this up. Which tastes better ?

Having been there... Cows are dumber than a stump. Horses are smart when they want to be, otherwise you got a problem. Mules...see above with horses Dogs. Oh, hell yes. Cats. You just got owned. forget it, They are now your master <shi*t, aint that the truth> Gerbils ?????...I dont want to know about that crap ls3mach FEB 18, 09:08 AM quote Originally posted by Wichita: I don't understand why we can't accept that it may not be such a bad thing for us to raise dogs, cats or even horses as live stock for meat consumption by us humans. It's not for me, but, I am not that hungry. Tons of wild dogs and cats are euthanized daily. At a minimum we could be using that to produce feed for other animals. quote Originally posted by cliffw: Let me see if I can clear this up. Which tastes better ? I have seen no evidence that pigs are smarter than dogs, except maybe Arnold of Green Acres. Not that I doubt you but I have seen no evidence. My grandfather raised hogs/pigs, and horses and cows. I have not seen the evidence myself. We had a pet pig about a year ago. She was cute. Smart enough to tell us when she needed to potty, but my Labrador will bring me a duck. I have haven't done the research personally: "Pigs outperform 3-year-old human children on cognition tests and are smarter than any domestic animal, and animal experts consider them more trainable than cats or dogs." Having said that, I also read dogs don't dream, and from my experience I just can't believe that either. quote Originally posted by dratts: Wouldn't it be expensive meat? I wouldn't think so, we could easily wipe out the shelters first, then take stock of the situation. Larger breeds have larger litters. I think I had 11 once. I am not arguing for these people or us going to this. I am just saying it is an effing weird line in the sand we have drawn. It IS exactly that; something we have decided arbitrarily.
