The dignity of the pigs is inviolable. Even when they are murdered in millions by human beings.

Es ist abgrundtief traurig, dass Tiere für die Dummheit der Menschen büßen müssen! It’ s very, very sad that animals must suffer for the stupidness of people! C’ est très, très triste que des animaux doivent souffrir pour la bêtise de les hommes!

All the other advanced countries at science said that this was a HUGE mistake. So why did we do that??? It's definitely a religious issue. By the way, the garbage will increase and surge after the killing of the pigs, which will bring much more deadly diseases than the AH1N1. Just wait and see people. Oh and, the prices of plastic will increase too.

Pigs have feelings too, they're not objects, & they've done nothing wrong. They shouldn't have to pay in blood. Those involved in these type of killings are repulsive!

Humans are living just because of the animals. We're connected to them. Is this behaviour our thanks and reward for them? I don't think so.

It hurts me so bad to see what all these animals go through, just because of human stupidity. Yes, humans are stupid. We're not the only species that matter. How dare you torture those poor animals like that? It's plain inumane.

I have been sickened by what I have read about those poor pigs!!! It's an absolute disgrace. The virus IS NOT present in Egyptian pigs so why on earth this has been allowed happen is incomprehensible!
