Come on, get real. That isn't humane, and I doubt it's ethical either. I can see euthanizing animals because they are carriers of disease, but by a fucking wood chipper? Bullshit.

What makes this the ultimate hypocracy is that this idea supposedly came from a freaking committee on animal rights.
Yeah, actually it is humane. It's not ethical, but it's humane. The chickens fed into the woodchipper died instantly so it's just as humane as breaking their necks, shooting them, gassing them or injecting them. The animals HAD to be killed, they merely chose the cheapest and easiest way to do it. Is it terrible? Yes, however it is legal and American businesses are not known for their ethics.
By the way Here are the CA statutes for animal cruelty. There are some pretty hefty penalties for malicous animal mutilations.

You realize chickens run around for 5 minutes with their heads cut off right? They don't know what's going on, and it's a hell of a lot better than when they're killed for consumption. I have a buddy who's mom has a farm, and when she goes to kill a chicken for dinner, she grabs it by the neck, and just whips it like a bull whip, sending the body flying and the head remaining in her hand. She comes back out in a bit to get the body. You guys are seriously over reacting. Either that or you've never seen what a wood chipper does to wood, I imagine chickens would be even quicker.

Fact is, a chicken isn't a cat or dog, it's a lower life form. It's certainly not a human, and it's some quality dumb shit to imply it to be even comparable.

It's alive nonetheless. We have no evidence to suggest that they do not feel pain.

sucks for them. I like my bojangles

edit: yea I realize this news isnt about chickens that would be used as food, but im making a point about how I feel about the treatment of the lower animals. In the world of chickens I would say the chickens turned chipper fodder were the lucky ones.

edit2 (ok more like edit12) ^ my post sucked ass, dont bother trying to make sense of it.

Oh really? I didn't realize there were sub-classes of animal life forms.

So then are you in line of thinking that certain "ethnicities" of humans are sub-standard? Or just animals? And you determine an animal's intelligence how? Did you learn to speak Chicken and then decide, "This bird is fuckin stupid!"? I'm really curious as to how you break down an animal's intelligence and value in the animal kingdom. I mean, I'd really like to know where "the fact is", and what authority made it fact that a chicken was a lower life form. Cats and dogs are cuter, and have fur instead of skanky feathers, therefore they must be of more worth. Otters- they're cute and furry and do cute little tricks, but a chicken- he just sits there and makes noise and pecks at the ground- must be fed to the chipper!

I don't argue with the fact that the chickens were diseased and needed to be destroyed. What I find sick is the fact that A) they used a fucking woodchipper, B) some of you find that intensely funny, C) you don't see that as somehow disturbing, and D) the idea came from an animal rights committee.

And for the record, I don't eat chicken nuggets, unless I buy chicken and make it myself. Do you know what's actually in that shit?

Points that had already made with less detail a page back and that were well refuted in Navarone's post. Fact is the two of you are over-reacting, it isnt funny, but it isnt something worth making an ethical argument over. Remember, they are our food, not friends or companions such as a dog or cat.

I dont even consiter this as being news-worthy, most people just dont care, and are much less willing to shed a tear over some chipper chopped chickens.

I'm guessing you missed the Seinfeld episode where Kramer had a chicken for a pet.

I know.

Those were serious questions that I had, but okay... I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion but me. Thanks for the great debate.

HFS! Someone notify PETA, Seinfeld can now be used as viable support for animal rights arguments!

He used the rooster in cock fights... so... yeah....

Anyhow I don't care... I've done worse to animals then shredding them and killing them quickly... Think dog + some cloth imbebed with flammable liquids...

Now think about dog with cloth in ass and cloth set on fire... yeah... don't ask how I stuck the cloth in! I was young and stupid! But hygieniec!
