Double standards over animal cruelty

With the live export trade once again in the spotlight, I find myself wondering - if one person is unkind to an animal, it's considered cruelty, but where a lot of people are unkind to animals - especially live export and factory farmed animals - the cruelty is condoned, and once large sums of money are at stake, the cruelty is defended.

Live export is the most appalling treatment of living creatures I have seen. Talk about double standards. Cruelty is cruelty.
