Foie Gras

What I want to know is...who is the sick individual who came up with the idea of force-feeding ducks to make their livers fatty so people could enjoy having another delicacy that is unhealthy anyways?? How is this legal?? Wait...I know why...because ANIMALS HAVE NO RIGHTS. In the eyes of man, animals are treated as lesser than us because we feel that we are superior to all living beings on this planet. Am I right?

Foie Gras has been banned in some states, but it's still legal here in New York. They have some farms upstate...lovely "family-run" operations...it just sickens me how everything is sugar-coated, even though the reality of it is that millions upon millions of animals are abused and killed everyday at the hands of man, for selfish reasons.

I heard about it and the protesters the other day in the news, so not sure if it's still going on

It's PETA being idiots. They hurt animal rights more than doing any good. I can see some of their points but I don't think they go about it the right way...and they euthanize a lot of dogs so they are pretty hippocritical.
