Kevin from Ostend, Belgium, tells me this is “self done”, but I don’t believe the pig’s foot is quite that capable. I’m sorry, I know, it’s in bad taste to make second language jokes, but I just wanted some text because I hate posting photos all by themselves.

Tracy, sure, if you torture and over-feed an animal in a factory farm where its life is literally a living hell, you could call it “humane” to kill it, but I’m not sure the argument is entirely logical.

(Sorry if that came off harsh; I might agree with you if most pigs were raised in humane ways, but most pigs, including probably the one in the picture above, are raised in truly horrific environments).

English is for Belgians the fourth language.
First there’s Flemish (Dutch dialect) then French, German, only then comes English.
Fourth-language jokes are just making YOU look retarded.

“Second language” doesn’t have to refer to a specific language in terms of the order it’s spoken. It’s simply a term for the non-primary language of the speaker.
For example, in my case, English, French, Latin, Hebrew, and Spanish are second langauges to me because I first spoke German. I don’t really consider them my second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth languages. They’re all just second languages.
Feel free to think I’m “retarded” if you want. Now go furiously edit the wiki on second language so it agrees with you!

Man, you vegs need to get your minds out of the guttter. You see a picture a pig’s foot and your first thought is that it was cut from a live pig? Also, an animal doesn’t have to live on a factory farm to be miserable in old age, and I don’t think factory farms were the point of Tracy’s comment. Who’s getting off on animal cruelty now?

ozone_00 – Are you going to kill yourself when you start to age? Because that’s what Tracy is saying — it’s better to be killed young than to die old. It’s a silly statement.

I think what Tracy is saying is that animals tend not to have heating, air conditioning, medical technology and the like, so old age doesn’t tend to be as enjoyable for a sickly, arthritic animals as it is for sickly, arthritic humans.

Hello everyone, iam the person who tattooed this pig’s foot, mets get some things straight. First off all i bought those pig’s feet a year ago in a butcher shop for 30 cents as meat leftover so no i didn’t assassinate any animals to do this, second off all, tattooing pig’s feet is a common practice amongst beginning tattoo artists around the globe. I did this about 5 months and learned also on myself (and i still do)before tattooing other people and no i do not support animal cruelty in any way and i never have and never will tattoo a living animal, let it be clear. I didn’t mean to offend anyone with this and i hope you all have a better insight now. peace.

obviously this is an old forum, however all of the comments have had almost nothing to do with the post itself. Tattooing pigs feet IS indeed a common practice, but not because it’s a pigs foot, because of it’s fleshlike quality. I do think it is very gross, but those practicing the art of tattoing have only a few things to use in order to get some quality practice in. I think the idea of eating a pigs foot is way more gross than tattooing it. Fruit works as okay practice but the flesh of fruit is so much diferent than that of an actual person.
It’s alot easier to be repulsed by something that still looks animalistic, but you don’t hear anyone making a fuss about horse and cow hooves being processed into glue. Or looky there at that fancy leather boot. It’s very sick how animals are killed for meats and products but that alone has nothing to do with tattoos. If you can stand to look at, and smell some nasty pig foot then so be it. More power to ya, but most of all make sure you get as much practice in on it as possible. Don’t waste food and don’t waste butchered pigs feet either. p.s. the butcher would have thrown them out anyway. Duder gave the feet an actual purpose beyond filling his gut with dead flesh. I’m going to go eat a hambuger. Peace out ya bunch of hippies.

Nothing is humane about a slaughter house, whoever thinks so is horribly wrong and doesn’t know their facts- Do you honestly believe everything you read?
Watch “Meet your Meat”. Seriously, forget anyone who’s too foolish to atleast learn what goes on behind the scenes.
Wow a younger me would hate how being a vegan makes me sound, but I’m so happy to have learned sooner than never.

Personally I am a meat eater, I lived as a vegan for 9 years and it was fun while it lasted, I have been to slaughter houses in person, and I have also had to clean up the dead bodies of suicides, murders, and car wrecks. All of you have very valid points, and as such express strong opinions. I do respect all of your opinions and will not bash on them in anyway.
As for the pigs feet, I am at the point of my tattoo apprenticeship, that my boss is now saying I have to get pigs feet and a preservative and a mason jar, tattoo it, and save it for him.
I as a apprentice tattoo artist, feel that pigs skin, is the closest thing to human skin that you can get. As for the art of it? Well there are pictures, of kids being tattooed, like 6 years old, out there and baby’s getting inked, I would save a lot of the animosity that you are showing, about a dead pigs foot, and put towards something far more crucial. The facts are thus: The Meat Market is a Multimillion dollar corporation, and is backed by our system of consumer marketing. It is also global. So instead of going to a site like Bmezine to express your opinions about the meat marketing, try going to the actual source. I am pretty sure that the guy who did this, was not trying to make a statement. (as he had written in a previous post)
You are all intelligent and awesome people, Thanks for your time.
