I’m mostly concerned about how the pigs are going to deal with us when they get a few rungs higher on the evolutionary ladder. Maybe some pigs will start chasing us around for sport and certain other pigs will decry their actions as inhumane treatment of livestock. But in the mean time, we killed, clawed, built, and bled our way to the top of the food chain. May as well enjoy the view from up here.

No, “kinda douchey” is coming onto a site and calling people “panzies” or “idiots.”

Never said I was smarter than anyone. But it goes beyond having “different views” — your views allow for exploiting animals for a pointless “sport.” Mine don’t.

Wow, didn’t realize it was that time of year already. I thought they didn’t let the idiots out of their cages until later in the spring.

you guys are panzies, its sport for entertainment and the pig was going to be eaten any ways. think about it, if the pig was going to die why not have a little bit of fun with it. Also their wrestling it to the ground its not like theyre pulling a knife on it. so yeah screw you guys im going home…

Wait, Zach, you mean I can’t advocate for more than ONE cause at a time? Dang, we must be a horrible species at multi-tasking. And if you follow that train of logic it also means that when you’re considering the welfare of your family you can never consider the welfare of your friends, country, environment, pets, coworkers, etc. I’m sorry you’re so lonely.

In my experience veg*ns are better at advocating for human rights than non-veg*ns. Call me crazy, but that’s how I call it.

With all of the vitriol and superior attitudes, I am just surprised only one response is written in all caps. There are people all over the world being mistreated also, maybe you could spare them a little of your obviously superior time.

Regardless of whether the pig is physically harmed in these “contests,” he is probably very terrified; he’s put into an unfamiliar, loud environment and is chased, apprehended, and lifted from the ground by four people. That in itself makes the event wrong and deserving of condemnation. Being mean to animals should not be fun.

In addition, between the cheering crowd and the fact that it is a timed event, eventually injuries to the chased pig are inevitable, and in fact there have been reports of injuries. (Yes, humans may get injured, too, but unlike the pig they’re willingly participating in the spectacle and know beforehand what it is.)

Aren’t we resourceful enough to think up fun and games that don’t involve harrassing or harming animals? If nothing else, let a human volunteer try to get away from the people chasing him or her. At least that way, everyone is a willing participant.

THIS IS DISGUSTING, AND THEY ARE DOING THIS AT OUR FAIR NEXT WEEK. IT MAKES ME SICK, I WANT TO LET THE HOGS DO THIS TO THE HUMAN.

ANIMALS DESERVE SO MUCH MORE THAN THEY ARE GIVEN….
