perhaps the artist is attempting to juxtapose the horror, disgust, and outrage over a film of 6 animals being killed with the apathetic (daily) viewing of humans killed.
Perhaps this exhibit is actually a good thing. Maybe it'll get people to think about the routine, sanctioned violence (stuff like this exhibit happens every single day in any given slaughterhouse, factory farm, research lab, circus, fur farm...) inflicted upon animals for meat, dairy, and egg production, biomedical pseudo-research, et. al.--literally upwards of TEN BILLION sentient nonhumans every year in this country along. Go vegan, please.

What I wanna know is why hasn't the D.A. charged the artist with animal
cruelty?
Looks like multiple felonies have been committed by this "artist".
Where's anti-death penalty crusader and SF DA Kamala Harris
on these crimes?

this is fucking sick
To Vegan, did he create this for the purpose of exposing what really happens in slaughter houses, or did he do this just to cause a stir and increase his Google search cred?
Hey Michele....you sound like you are almost as big of a loser as the Adel scumbag. Too bad miserable, hateful people like you keep breeding.
Mistreating animals (smashing them in the head with a sledgehammer) is at the same disgusting level as child abuse. Figure it out.
