Quote:Dog may be a staple ingredient in various Asian cuisines, but that wasn't enough to silence South Korean animal rights activists, whose repeated protests lead to the cancellation of a Seongnam festival focused on promoting canine meat's consumption.
As the AFP is reporting, the festival -- planned to “showcase canine food products, including barbecued dog, sausages and steamed paws”
Yep...pure fiction!
Oh, so Dogs are off limits but not Pigs, Cows, Chickens, Sheep, Ducks, Fish, Sharks and the like? Sure, because the animals we are happy eating, that's some objective moral standard for eating meat or something! Not like those minority of people from that other culture who don't feel the same way about Dogs as you, they're evil! Right? No, and your looking at them like criminals for eating Dog meat is bad enough, similar to a Hindu looking at us westerners with disgust for eating their beloved Cow, but the fact you find something YOU dislike that is present in a TINY SUBSET of the Korean population and then use that to attack THE ENTIRE COUNTRY.
And, what was the whole point of that story? That public outcry by KOREANS got the show cancelled, showing that enough people there don't like it to give the event venues the reason to refuse to host the event, meaning they could not find a location. As the protesters themselves said; "This is making our country an international laughing stock, and making the whole world mistakenly believe that all South Koreans eat dogs,". You completely missed the fucking point of their protest, to protect their reputation from assholes like you who would bitch about Koreans buying a meat plant "because they eat Dogs". Well done Min, you Jackass!
