Title

Clippings from the Registar Pajaronian regarding Butchering

Description

Three clippings from the Registar Pajaronian that reference Filipinos' butchering practices. The three columns— titled "Art of butchering," "Gory and Macabre," and "'Sport' is what's cruel"—are written by Lee Quarnstrom, V. Todorovic, and Modesto Orlando Tuzon respectively. The original column, which detailed a pig's slaughter, incited a negative response from a community member, who alleged 'inhumanity.' Modesto Orlando responded to both op-eds. In his response, he discussed the cultural importance of butchering in Filipino communities as well as the skill and precision it requires.
