Did you know dog meat is served in restaurants in South Korea? I didn't. In the United States and most western countries, Fido is a family companion and while it's not ethical to judge another culture by our standards, anyone who doesn't at least (humanely) butcher the animal first is acting without proper care. South Korea relies on western consumerism for their economy and needs to be aware that we do not accept the practice of skinning and boiling dogs alive. Originally shared by April Benney Over 6,000 restaurants in South Korea are still serving dog meat even though it is now illegal. In many Asian countries dogs are boiled alive or skinned alive when slaughtered. It's an unbelievably horrendous & torturous way to die. I know a lot of you hate seeing this kind of posts on G+, but the Asian industry slaughtering dogs & cats is how I first got involved in animal rights & it will always be my main animal welfare concern. It's intolerable what is happen...

Or maybe I'm just in denial.
I've heard too many people in real life who don't seem to know the most basic facts.
I'm just grateful to have surrounded myself with people online, for ~20 years, that make me doubt the legitimacy of the ignorance displayed in this post.
Seriously.
For good and bad, including the NSA and the l33tmobs: Thank you for not letting that shit inside my bubble.
I'd also like to thank myself for not being on Facebook, even though I understand ignorance is not restricted to that domain.
