Melissa's friend Novella has a nice piece at Salon.com about killing the turkeys she raised at her Berkeley home last year. I believe that everyone who makes the choice to eat meat should, at least once, do the slaughter himself or herself to understand that choice at a deep level. On the other hand, I doubt that our neighbors would appreciate a chicken farm in our living room. But once we have a yard, I want to raise rabbits or chickens.
