The West published an article on their website this morning about the anti horse meat backlash... unfortunately they've focussed on animal rights activists instead of the real concerns of those of us willing to engage in reasonable debate about this!
Human health risks? No mention... Animal welfare concerns in the slaughter process? No mention... Someone ringing up and mentioning "Underbelly"? Well of course that got in there...
Who would expect such a thing from a newspaper... Hmmm... Oh dear, so easy to be cynical...
Link to the story: "Threats over horse meat sales"
So frustrating - the crazies are not helping at all.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. I can understand that they're passionate about this, but I really wish they'd realise the damage they can do to their own cause by opting for extremist actions... Death threats are absolutely not on, it's just ridiculous.
