That they did. Just long enough that the memory of them strutting about the place, and their wanton slaughter, had faded.
I certainly couldn't have eaten them straight away.
But someone else's turkeys...now that would be different.

Connecting logic with the consumption of meat is an erroneous debate. The same folk who claim dog meat is fine will scream blue murder at the Japanese eating whales.
The fact is we do not eat Dog meat in NZ, to claim so is incorrect and could possibly create the wrong impression for Tongans or Koreans [or anyone other culture that decides to fry Fido]. Serve Dog up at a bar-b-cue and watch the guests scarper!

What's so unacceptable about slaughtering a pig in your own back yard?

What is unacceptable is neighbours thinking they have a right to tell you what you can and can't do in your own back yard when it is neither any of their business nor of any consequence to them.

You would have got one hell of an earful from me. And probably also a fair few pig entrails on your back lawn.

A few years ago step-daughter would not speak to me after she relised why I was calling the three piglets that we were feding, they names were Ham, Bacon and little Porkie. As for slaughting in a backyard whats the differene between a 1/4 acre backyard and a life style block (just the size)

If you didn't tell them what it was they'd probably eat it and not know any difference

"Once were warriors" full of lion red might not know or care. My guests would want to know what the 'interesting' cut and taste was.

Because, believe it or not, some people do actually draw a distinction between "pets" and animals destined for the supermarket shelves. Duh.

Trust me mate, any earful you think you'd give me you'd get back in full! My fishwife impersonations are an awesome thing to behold. Why do you think we have abattoirs ya plonker, instead of a free for all backyard (I'm talking residential here) rivers of blood and guts. Not to mention the terrified squealing of an animal as it's being slaughtered. If you were my neighbour and subjected me to that you'd get a lot more than you'd ever give me petal.

How many countries would incarcerate you and worse for insisting on "your rights to live by your own cultural standards" in their country? Yet here in NZ we are expected to bend over and take it up the exhaust pipe simply in order to let all our immigrants feel completely at home here.

Baby beating? You mean Maoris are immigrants?

And what? That makes it ok for these other animals to be murdered and when "pets" are murdered it's not.

What next? You'll say their shit stinks and your's doesn't?

B0o0 h0o0o get over it.
