Will You Be Taking Steps To Stop Supporting China?

[youngmafbog]

It's a pretty evil State with people eating wild animals and a disatrous human rights record. Now, if reports are correct, China is making money from this disaster by buying up stocks in the West and selling masks to Ireland etc. One way or another this country is responsible for all this, we know they lied about the figures so what else? Already they have tried blaming everyone else but themselves.

Personally I shall now be very careful of buying anything made in that country from now on if I can help it.

And certainly BoJo needs to stop the Huawei deal.

Look I don't know about you but I live in a house in a town, near a city and have a job. But I do chose to cause the least amount of suffering to others that I can, this includes where I buy my clothes from.
I also do not pay for the artificial insemination of animals so that we can steal their milk and eat their babies.
I do not pay a farmer to lovingly raise and then kill lambs for Easter.
I do not pay for a farmer to confine a sow to confinement so she can birth piglets for my sandwich filling.
I do not eat and animal or their secretions and this is from the bottom of the so called food chain up.... no shrimp, fish, beetle or other....
Not in my name. The Chinese have an awful government that abuses people in concentration camps... that's why I don't like their regime. Not because they eat pangolins!

Ok, it's about people now?

[pixie374]

Btw, I do too and have never abused or condoned abuse of animals. But I am aware that it exists. Your idea that only insects die for you... amongst your other posts... again, i can only see as hypocritical.

Pixie. "Horses and dogs have been selectively bred in different ways for different reasons."
That's true. But it doesn't provide a moral excuse for humans to selectively breed animals for humans' own desires. If a superior race from ET-land bred humans to be extra succulent or extra strong and therefore able to win money for the ETs' gambling pleasure, what would we think about it?

[divegirl]

No, I am saying it's about all beings, humans being part of that.

If you continue to equate the life of a locust with that of a pig which is as intelligent as a dog or young child then there really is no point in carrying on this conversation.
There is little I can do to help the insects aside from plant flowers etc and that I do do but there is most certainly something I can do about killing sentient beings.
Is that clear enough for you?

Night night x

Was there not to be a crackdown on unutterable drivel in News?

Maybe just Monday to Friday.

[divegirl]

Sorry... just spotted this...

Btw, I do too and have never abused or condoned abuse of animals.

No, you pay someone else to do it for you!

[pixie374]

I'm not saying it is right, necessarily... but that when animals need and expect certain behaviour, we have the responsibility for that. We did that. If you are suggesting that racehorses should just not exist... maybe. But we are in between that right now, and they should be treated with understanding.

[pixie374]

So do you, dg.

[divegirl]

Theres always the report button douglas :)

[divegirl]

So do you, dg.

Lol. That was your view. Not mine.

[divegirl]

I don't pay for this.....



And really this time... night night... sweet dreams I'll look in in the morning to see how many people *** me off for posting this and telling be it's an isolated issue....

[pixie374]

Go to bed and spare your blushes. Night x

I'm with you as well Divegirl ,everybody should visit a slaughter house once in their life just to see what goes on in them
Father was a slaughter man in my young days

The equipment that the Republic of Ireland have bought from
China is also to help those in Northern Ireland which is part
of the UK. A deal was made with R.O.I and N.I.
If the equipment helps save live I am all for it.
