lambs to the slaughter

After watching a program on TV this evening its left laughing at the state of the naivety of the human race, let me explain. there is a program called 'kill it, cook it, eat it' being shown on bbc3 and this looks at animals we eat every day being filmed taken to the slaughter house and killed live on TV, then the carcuses are cut up and served for a select audience to eat.
the audience is a mixed bunch of meat eaters, veggies, animal rights activists and farmers. the program basically shows the public how the meat gets to the supermarket counter from the farm. now i think this is great as it educates the consumers and im all up for a bit of education, however what really got my goat (mind the pun) was the absolute severe state of naivety of these people. the reaction of seeing a goat being slaughtered is not a pritty sight but to sit there by choice a spout all kinds of rediculous comments like its inhumane and barbaric is complete tosh where did these people think their meat came from?? how do they think meat is produced do they think its comes from magical machine that nicely puts the animal to sleep with a smile and softly removes its skin and gently cuts it into perfect bite size pieces.
then to top this off you get a meat eater and some dumb ass farmer who says after seeing the process that after 30 or so years of eating meat they can no longer buy or consume it knowing that the animal has been killed in this way. where have they been i ask you please some explain to me why the human race has suddenly become aware, since the dawn of time when man first walked the earth we have eaten meat so why have the the human race now become aware of the fact that to eat meat we have to kill animals.

Hi thanks for visiting and leaving a comment.
It's good to get your opinion and I like your blog btw.
Things are crazy in England at the moment and will only get worse.
That's why it is always good when I hear from another like minded person such as you.
Take care
