The Bacon of the Sea

They are so beautiful and smart - pity people treat them like property, like objects, castrate them without anesthetics, cut their tails and teeth also without anesthetics, keep them in crates so small they can't move, then transport them for hundreds of miles to a slaughterhouse where a low skilled worker needs to kill as many of them as he can in a minute, often resulting in very slow deaths. Not to mention that these same workers, so desensitized by their jobs, often will torture them just for fun - there are many reports of such things, including one from Ozzy Osborn who used to work in a slaughterhouse.

All for what? Bacon, ham, and other completely dispensable items which give a little bit of pleasure to you yet cause a hell lot of suffering to them.

So I'm glad to see these guys roaming free, swimming in nice waters and having a good time. I just wish they all had that opportunity to be free.

wheel of morality, turn turn turn, tell us the lesson that we should learn

-that bacons' for humans n' the 'poor piggys' sufferings' not un-like ours...we all get served.

so that's what you guys turned a fun video of pigs swimming into?!?! sheesh...

Come now, It's still a fun video of pigs swimming!! Imagine if that water were a huge vat of hot bacon grease!!??

@choggie -- yes, or a huge vat of barbecue sauce!

Always look on the bright side of life.

Careful, I think you've got something stuck in your anus there. Looks like a stick...

And here we have the salt-water pig,
substantially different from the well-
known freshwater porcine. Note the
webbed, split hooves and chromata
phore stripes upon the flanks.
Tourists are advised to visit at
dusk to truly appreciate the noc
turnal display these pigs make to
signal each other.....
They are tasty. We eat them. That is
all.
