If you're going to China for the olympics, you can forget dining on Fido.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

what do you mean by the last line?

I really dont care what people eat for food.  Who cares if you eat dog, we eat cows and pigs and chickens.  How about we kill them ourselves and then eat the meat as we bleed the life out of them and see them shake violently as they die.  Ill still eat steaks after that.

It's summer.  More cat season.

Dog always seemed to be more winter fare.
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

i think it's pretty obvious what i meant.

they don't want foreigners to see dogs being eaten, which is an element of their culture.  period.

same think that Korea did during the olympics.

i could care less if they eat dogs.  eat people for all i care.

point is, they want to hide it from foreigners instead of just going along as usual.

it is not like the driving ban (to reduce air pollution) or ads reminding Chinese to be polite to the foreigners.  it is no different than them deciding to hide the fact they eat with kui zi (chopsticks) or that women occasionally wear a qi pao.

The City of Denver (even though they are @ $40 million short of what they need to host the convention) has rented a several hundred hotel rooms far outside Denver city limits to house the homeless during the Democratic Convention in August.

During Super Bowls, World Series, etc., hosting citys will do the same.

Homeless problem?  What homeless problem?  We have no homeless problem!  [roll]


So glad to see tax dollars spent so well!

Sorry, i didnt know if you were being sarcastic or not.  I was pointing out that all animals pretty much die in the same manner then whey are slaughtered.  Violent shaking as they hold on to dear life and you see and know that they are trying.  Sorry tasty animal, you just taste so good.

Question...

Is this really the Chinese government pushing this issue or is the IOC pressuring restaurants to do this because they are being pressured by other oganizations, i.e. PETA?

good question, and it would explain south korea's decision to do the same thing.

In certain parts of china food is still hard to come by because everything that you produce needs to be sold to the government so other people can eat. So if your dog is dying or your dog has bitten someone, its going to be eaten. Same is true for ox's. THe only animals actually bred for food are pigs chicken and cute little ducks (that taste so good roasted!!!!)

Am i oppose to the chinese eating dogs, damn right, i think its totally not cool to be serving an animal like that in a restaurant. Though i have to say, i would not have a problem eating a wolf. It might just be the impact society has on me about dogs and cats.


HOWEVER, i dont like cats, i will eat you if you scratch me kitty. [wine]

Sure, i dont like the idea of eating dogs myself but what you write is some what "America" centric isnt it?  What if India was the wold power right now?  They hold the cow sacred.  Does that mean their opposition as to what we eat should have any bearing as to rather or not we can eat delicious steak?  I sure hope not. 

Im not really dumping on you.  There is a reason why my initial post on this topic said that all things die in the same manner (shake violently as they hold on to dear life).  Just because one culture holds a particular animal in a high regard due to it being a pet/part of the family and another culture holds a particular animal sacred, does not mean that one is better than the other.

thats exactly my point. I think i only feel that way because i live in America. And youre right everything dies in the end, which is why people over there eat whatever they can get their hands on. "My dad told me once, god made all living beings and everythign deserves an equal chance to be eaten by anyone, so get the make the beast with two backs out of my way. " And i agree, everything dies in the end becasue everything is food for another animal. I just dont feel like eating a dog, but dont get me wrong, ill eat anything if you cook it right. Hell I've already eaten some stuff that most people would probably shun me for. And it all sucked (except for rattle snake and shark fin, and the exotic animal spirits ive drank)

And comeon, yall didnt click that link, saw those noodles in soup and god "damn i could go for some chinese food?"??? YOUR ALL SICK!!!! im hungry.
