Sick... Raccoon Dogs Skinned Alive in China to Make Fake Boots

Quote from hoffmanw:

Don't be a hypocrite. You should become a vegetarian. The meats you eat come from slaughterhouses. The chances of animals being skinned alive in the slaughterhouses are high.




....For her book Slaughterhouse, Gail Eisnitz, chief investigator for the Humane Farming Association (HFA), interviewed slaughterhouse workers in the U.S. who say that, because of the speed with which they are required to work, animals are routinely skinned while apparently alive, and still blinking, kicking, and shrieking. Eisnitz argues that this is not only cruel to the animals, but also dangerous for the human workers, as cows weighing several thousands of pounds thrashing around in pain are likely to kick out and debilitate anyone working near them.[7]....

..........Many are still alive while they are skinned, hacked into pieces, or scalded in the defeathering tanks....

I have tried going vegetarian 3 times for the health benefits and because of the cruelty to animals and I was miserable.The longest I got was about 4 months .Not eating meat left me hungry,weak,light headed,irritable,not able to concentrate etc .Other vegetarians said with time I would adjust but never did.I'm thinking about trying again do you have any tips you can share ?
