The shame of Korea

[Guest guest]

I was shocked to read of WSPA's and the RSPCA's intention to press for a bill to have dogs classified as livestock for meat, I dont think they dont have any right to take this upon themselves, people worldwide are striving for the government to enforce its own animal protection laws, surely if dog meat was legalized it would become more popular, and dog eating would increase horrendously, resulting in thousands more of dog breeding farms shooting up, how could wspa then turnaround and and say, no, they have more to offer as pets than food afterall, who by then would listen to them?

If wspa & rspca press for legalization they undermine the Dr Dog work being done with orgs such as animal asia & others, I go with Kyenan Kum and Sunnan who are strongly opposed to legalizing dog meat, & believe it would be a major setback in trying to establish dogs as companion animals, and in that millions more dogs would be killed and eaten each year,

to say it would be regulated and done humanely if legal, our abottoirs in the U.K are nothing to boast of and dont get it right every time, also, look at the outcry over the cruel inhumanity in dealing with livestock with foot & mouth here in the u.k due entirely to the overwhelming millions being slaughtered were to much to deal with, if dog meat was legal and commerciliased in korea the many millions of dogs being processed would be to overwhelming to be slaughtered or regulated properly, and who can believe that every single slaughterer in korea, would slaughter according to regulations or humanely, (how can there be a humane way to slaughter dogs?) every single dog, every single time, they wouldnt care,

then there's the100k superdog thats been bred & they aim to get to 200k, by professor hum-dai park,

sorry for going on, I feel this is the easy way out, but not for these pitiful dogs, I feel we would be condemming them to where it could never end.
