Thread: Dog Slaughter Continues in China's Yulin Amid Growing Calls For Change

Thousands of dogs, many of them stolen pets, were slaughtered during the weekend's dog-meat eating festival in the southwestern Chinese region of Guangxi in spite of a global campaign to save them, activists said.

The annual June 21 festival, which is largely commercial in origin, has been the focus of repeated petitions and social media campaigns from within China and around the world since last year calling on authorities in Guangxi's Yulin city to ban it.

"[The] dogs are captured and transported over long distances under horrific conditions to Yulin," the Humane Society International said in a petition on its website.

Bastards!

On the upside, perhaps China will take up "cannibalism," and have special days for slaughter of your preferred victim and communal dinners for cannibals? Chinese always on the cutting edge of technology and societal trends...World could do with a general cleansing of the Chinese population.

^About time they had another "Great Leap Forwards" imo.

Great idea to get rid of the soi dogs, Thailand should export the bastards. Really so much hypocrisy and outrage from people who eat pigs, cows and sheep. The arguments are oooh but these are pets and that they are killing the dogs cruelly. Most of the meat is killed by animals having their throats cut unstunned these days and animals are animals. The ones people stuff down their throats had just as much right to live as the little doggy woggies everyone is so 'disgusted' about being slaughtered for exactly the same purpose. The only people justified about being outraged are vegetarians.

I suppose Stroll will be front and center at this Festival huh.

hear what you're saying
but we breed animals to eat ( sometimes in horrific conditions where they never see the light of day)
but nicking someone's pet goes against the grain.

In Kalasin opposite the pizza parler on edge of town<if its still there.>
there is mini mart and just behind up a short alleyway
is where i came across a whole bunch of cages with 3 or 4 dogs to each cage.
they'll be covered over with a big sheet of tarpolian.
Pull that sheet back and see the reception you get.
its not something you forget easily.
oh the horror.

yeah, I'd be gutted if one of my dogs got nicked by these kunts, as would my kids.

Mr and Mrs Somchai are lying in bed when Mr Somchai starts farting like a bastard.

"That's disgusting!" shouts the Mrs Somchai.

"It's fucking the dog!" Replies Mr Somchai

"Don't blame the dog!" Says Mrs Somchai it was cooked perfectly."

Dog Slaughter Continues in China's Yulin Amid Growling Calls For Change.

china have been eating dogs for centuries, as in Cambodia. Western people breed and eat sheep and cattle, Europe breed and eat rabbits. Maybe not kept in such harsh conditions, the again, what about the way we grow chicken.

I've no problem with people eating dog but I have seen the conditions the dogs are kept under in China. It is a nightmare. Add to that the stealing of people's pets for the trade makes it unforgivable.

Wish the Happy govt would come take some of the soi dogs away from around here,before i have to become the terminator again.

^^^ I was thinking the same,
I have mentioned my displeasure of to may stray dogs in Thailand.
