An Open Letter to all the People who are Protesting to Stop Yulin Festival in China

I have been seeing a lot of protest going on, on various social media platforms especially Facebook. But I don’t understand why people want to stop the festival firstly.

Millions of chicken, goat, fish, cows, buffaloes are killed everyday … no one gives a damn.
Dogs are killed in China every year for some xyz festival like “every year” still no one gives a **
And all of a sudden in 2015 some xyz campaign comes up and everyone loses their mind.
If you have ever seen the way a chicken or an innocent goat or a pig being killed, you will start campaigns for each of them …. Right ?
Good Luck with that !
PS : Thousands of dogs are killed in the North East too for the sake of festivals and its not apt to describe how they do it here on the social media.

Why Yulin Festival Should not be stopped?

1. Dog is also an Animal like Chicken, Goat, Cow, Pig etc:

There are many countries that eat Chicken, Goat, Cow etc.. I question how different is dog from these animals? I question all the people who are running the protest where were they gone when humans are killing all these animals on regular basis.

2. Human Being is always superior:

Human beings have transformed in the ages, from a wild man to a modern man. Wild Man’s food was meat where he used to kill the animal he gets and eat its meat.

I consider that human being is always superior and has a superior control over the nature and has all the rights to kill other animals unless laws of particular country permit that.

3. Its a Tradition in China unlike other countries:

Different countries have different traditions. In some countries during some traditional festivals people kill various animals like Goats, Cow etc. So in China its Dogs and Cats. How different are dogs, cats when compared to other animals.

4. Come out of a Taboo that Pets should not be Killed:

For some Dog is a pet, for some cat. But there are other animals which are also treated as pets like Pigs, Goats etc. So dogs and cats are no exception when we talk about Yulin festival.

5. Facebook itself is not used in China, so does it make any difference if people create a lot of buzz about it on Facebook?

 

I would say just stop bothering about the killing of dogs and let chinese follow their tradition. If you want to stop Yulin festival in China.
