I certainly don't condone poor treatment of animals which is what the original post is about but I rather think that if we were to apply your ideals to overseas trade and suggest that we shouldn't supply any exports ( animal, vegetable or mineral ) to places that don't have "gold standards" then there would be an awful lot of businesses going to the wall Scotty.
