Foie gras producer on trial in France for ‘serious animal cruelty’

“Even on the tables of the most prestigious restaurants, foie gras is nothing more than the diseased liver of a bird trapped in a cage, stuffed and sickened.”
____________________________________________________________________
When life ceases to be life, everything else falls apart.
When will some people realize that they are actually consuming the anguish, the torture and the cruelty of the ducks and geese please?
Imagine being force fed until death? and then what to be consumed to satisfy someone's appetite?
What did that ever achieve? Did it satisfy the taste? Did it really satiate the appetite? Did the taste of cruelty appeal+speak to you who consumed the foie gras please?
Your conscience knows it, Your consciousness knows it and so does Your conscientiousness know it very well, but then why do you pretend and keep indulging in sustaining this deplorable cruelty please?
When we human beings eat and are force fed with a pipe as is forcibly done with the helpless ducks and geese, then we will realize that how cruelty is nurtured.
Some people have forgotten how to live which is why they find some delusionary pleasure in exploiting the sufferings of helpless animals very most brutally and fiercely.
This is not just about ethics or expressing compassion for ducks or geese only; but also an strong appeal for safeguarding the integrity of humanity that is being torn apart by indiscriminate torture and cruelty towards all animals as well, when will those who err ever realize? When please?

First of all, before proceeding any further, please kindly note that we cherish the French culture and respect as well as enjoy it with a sense of thankfulness. However, there has been one particular aspect that continues to leave us speechless and experience tremendous sadness, it is relating to foie gras which as we all know when translated means fatty liver and as we are all aware of how this is ensuing, we are all the more baffled and really do not have words to say, what to say, since what we say is also but a humble appeal and continues to humbly appeal and earnestly seek your much appreciated guidance and help please.
The following petition reflects the extreme concerns of well wishers and supporters who hope, pray and wish that some resolution is found to alleviate the alarming sufferings of the helpless ducks and geese please.

Does it justify force feeding the ducks and geese please? The moral conscience of humanity is evoking those engaging in any such type/sorts of activities or consumptions of such meat to reflect upon their true nature and realize that what they are engaging in is sheer cruelty and abuse that defies all that we have ever known, know or will ever know please!
It is putting the ducks and geese under tremendous pressure and torturous ordeals that defies all covenants of human doctrines, ideals, principles, values and testimonials of life's etiquette, protocols and ethical governance respectively.
Imagine, a lifetime being overfed? force fed until the organs are literally tearing and almost shattered apart. We human beings know very well that if we experience a slight discomfort, we rush to seek immediate relief, but then with the ducks and geese since they have no way to appeal? no way to help themselves, they have to keep enduring this malicious abuse all throughout their lives until their last breaths and die an agonized death; but why please? Why..........
Alas, what to say? There really are no words, this is not a poetic rendition or an imaginary description of what is going on, but the very most challenging set of practices that are prevalent very most shockingly. The character and essence of life teaches us to practice compassion along with righteousness in all that we think, do and express consistently.
Whether in this World or in the Universe, wherever we look around us, we are graciously complimented with abundant resources and nutritious food that does not have to exploit the dignity and heartbeat of civilization by virtually strangulating the ducks and geese so that their organs could thereby enlarge to facilitate the mysterious sustenance of extremely cruel and tragic cuisines please.
In fact, with the anguish that the ducks and geese are force fed to death, it is the very same cells within their organs that are thereby transmuted to the consumer of the meat which thereby keeps augmenting until the taste of cruelty keeps viciously involving more and more ducks and geese to sadly perish due to the confounding greed of some individuals who for the sake of their appetites overlook at the harrowing ordeals that the ducks and geese go all = yes all across their lives, but time and again, the only question that earnestly strives in its diligent quest for the most awaited resolution for this very most challenging ordeal of a lifetime persistently lingers with the ardent and fervent hope that certain individuals will awaken to their true nature and adopt an reformist attitude in refraining from any such cruel indulgence completely please.
Being human is about humanity's being and not how many of these beings have to suffer please. They have gone through the worst ever cruelty known to humankind and no amount of atonement or repentance will be able to compensate them; for their lives have been cruelly snatched away after an extremely cruel set of lifetimes; however every initiative and step taken now towards with an attitude of genuine realization of providing them with adequate protection and safeguarding them from this malicious practice of over feeding would be the first ever glorious step and silver lining that humanity could adopt.
There are millions of supporters who are earnestly appealing and seeking your gracious cooperation to help provide an authentic, legitimate, meaningful, purposeful, righteous, sincere, truthful and conscientious life to the ducks and geese please. The ducks and geese are speechless but our moral conscience is not for the speech of humanity's conscience observes what is happening right across the World in fraction of seconds and experiences the pain and earnestly appeals for relief for the ducks and geese for we all share one privilege which is the opportunity to live a dignified life please, God bless.
