Have you ever been to a slaughter house? It is normal, even if you remove the neck of a bird it still moves for a while.
The other major point is:
Look how long that bird struggled before dying! Surely a quick chop would be better!
It seemed as though an artery was severed and blood vacuumed out of its body... some blood spilt.
Torture is not necessary!

I am with you, it seemed very barbaric based on the bird's struggles. Not sure what her point was in doing this interview either.
Turkeygate:
Q. What's the difference between Sarah Palin and a turkey?
A. The G.O.P. doesn't have to pay $150,000 to dress a turkey.
...
* It isn't the turkey that bothers me so much, it is the gobbeling of the governor. What, in heaven's name did she say? She speaks in broken cliches, two words forward and one back.
* The birds are put into that thing live, head-first, struggling? Thanks for telling us that - seriously. I just became a vegetarian this minute ... [lol].

LEX TALIONIS
Adam Lindsay Gordon.
To beasts of the field, and fowls of the air, and fish of the sea alike,
Man's hand is ever slow to spare, and ever ready to strike;
With a licence to kill, and to work our will, In season by land or by water,
To our heart's content we may take our fill of the joys we derive from slaughter..........
Shall we, hard hearted to their fates, thus soft hearted shrink from our own,
when the measure we meet is metred to us, when we reap as we've always sown,
Shall we who for pastime have squandered life, who are styled "the Lords of Creation",
Recoil from our chance of more equal strife , and our risk of retaliation?
....
But you've no remorseful qualms or pangs, When you kneel by the grizzly's lair,
On that conical bulllet your sole chance hangs, 'Tis the weak ones advantage fair,
And the shaggy giant's terrific fangs are ready to crush and tear.
Should you miss, one vision of home and friends, five words of unfinished prayer,
Three savage knife stabs, and so your sport ends
In the worrying grapple that chokes and rends :-
Rare sport, at least, for the bear!"
Too true.
There was a transition pause - from frantic to weak struggling, when it had died and the nerve twitching began. Awful.
The Australian report on this says Palin was not aware of what was happening in the background as she spoke.
Their video clip is from KTUU-TV in which the journo says Palin didn't know.
In fact, before the taping, Palin was asked about the scenario and she said:
"No worries. I'm fine with that."
Did you note the drums under the guillotine that collected the blood?
I just think they should knock them out before they suck the blood out of them.
Hopefully it will be a wake-up call for all abattoirs - all over the world. Be humane!
Maybe Palin's media addiction ploy for attention will have some value besides self-interest.
Who is worse?
Voyeuristic commentators who eat meat and have never seen a turkey killed, living in clingwrapped fetid cities or a good ole country girl doing her duty as Governor of Alaska, and saving one at Thanksgiving.
Sarah Palin lives in the real world.
lol - good one.Palin eating Turkey a new way for looking at cannibalism
She lives in a world, not the 'real world'. I dont have rifles in my home ready for me to go and shoot the wildlife.
