I adore food, especially meat. However, not when the animal(s) I'm going to consume have suffered for reason prior to finding themselves on my plate. I'm all for the ban on shark fins and anything else that is cruel and unnecessary regardless of someone's culture. However, I would also be alright with strict regulations limiting the number of sharks that can be hunted. We have to keep the well being of the ecosystem in mind.

I got news for you, most of the meat you eat was probably mistreaded while being raised and/or slaughtered. Just look up slaughter videos on youtube and you'll see.....

i agree that humans should eat meat, but something needs to be done to allow us to choose humanelly raised/slaughtered meat.
