Bet they pass on Chinese Burns though!

Miss Capri there are plenty of traditions that should cause "world shame". Female genital mutilation for one.

Big business animal husbandry in the Western world is as cruel or crueller than the slaughter shown. Why don't I post about it? Because I am not a hypocrite, I am a meat-eater and I do not trace all the meat I consume from farm to fork to ensure it has been reared responsibly. I cannot guarantee that if I buy cheap fish it is not at the cost of overfishing or the destruction of another species.

That's not to say I am immune from the shock of the pictures above. But don't insult my intelligence by suggesting this is staged, when even this thread shows a little knowledge - or reading around - would verify it as an annual event.
