My computer wouldn't let me open the video, but I have seen chickens & hogs slaughtered. (maybe it's a southern thing) While it is gruesome, the animals were not raised to be pets. The animals that were raised on my grandfather's farm were raised to be sold or eventually end up on the table. It sounds cold, but that's just the way it was on a farm back 25 years ago or so. As a meat eater myself, I confess it's cruel, but there's really no way to make it pretty. Just my opinion.
