    You didn’t answer my question. The dog in the picture, if someone came over and instead of rescuing it would have instead stunned it and slit its throat. Again, not because of hunger, just because of taste preference, would you call that cruel?

    Oh btw. something being part of nature surely isn’t justification for humans to do it. Animals mate without consent in nature and I hope you are not a proponent of that as well.

    And bolt guns specifically stun their victims, they don’t kill. For the bleeding out to be quick and efficent, the heart of the animal has to be beating still. I’ve been to slaughterhouses and I’ve seen it.

      Is it their dog? Is it raised for food, or would the person otherwise starve? If the answers are yes, then no, I don’t find it cruel. I might find it distasteful, but not cruel. Does that answer surprise you? Good. Maybe you’ll start to see that morals are not universal and not everyone has to conform to yours. That’s the kind of thinking of a child.

      Also, penetrating bolt guns are a thing and yes, they do kill.

        Lol you are changing the hypothetical cause you know exactly that this would be cruel and that you would try to stop it if you saw it happening. It’s so dishonest.
