And all I see in this woman is cruelty and callousness that puts Dick Cheney to shame. I believe Palin will happily support Cheney's inhumane policies on torture and attacking other countries. Don't get me wrong, Cheney is a dark, cruel man.

Each one of these animals suffered extreme cruel and inhumane conditions in the transportation and slaughter process. Surely a nation and a national press that can expend so much attention on the life and death of one racehorse should be able to muster the compassion to pass legislation that would end this cruelty. 30, 2007

Animal agriculture is inherently inhumane. The debeaking of hens and other routine cruelties of egg production are seldom put before the public. Would we say these people were slaughtered in a “people friendly” manner? Confinement is confinement, mutilation is mutilation, and slaughter is slaughter. Karen Davis Machipongo, Va.,

Causing an animal to suffer for no good reason is cruel, and our ordinary commonsense morality tells us in no uncertain terms that cruelty is wrong. At the time of slaughter, these frightened animals are inhumanely loaded onto trucks and shipped long distances to the slaughterhouse without food or water or protection from the elements.

Wherever companies profit from cruelty, you can rest assured that they will try to hide that cruelty from consumers, because cruelty makes a rather poor PR statement. Because, despite a NY Times story designed to promote fur sales, real fur is associated with cruelty, and cruelty is never "in."
