Read some of the comments while there
This is very different to what is going on in Denmark.

The animals used are humanely anaesthetised before any practice is done.
You post something like this which is not at all similar. In that sense you are provoking a controversy.
You link the two situations as if they are the same.......and while PETA do some excellent work, they are in the business to shock.
The video is done for the maximum shock impact. I am not saying that it doesn't happen because I haven't got enough knowledge about what happens across the pond.

As I previously said in another post. I do not condone cruelty to animals, but humans trump animals when it comes to providing for care in life or death situations. You have to have been in those situations in some shape or form to understand them.
Killing pigs is unpleasant...but watching a person die because you haven't got the skills/equipment to save them, lives with you every day of your life.
