Ignorance of what, exactly? Do you think they aren't aware that what happens is painful for the animal? Do you
really think that if you went over there and said to them "Hey, that hurts, you know!" they would say "Really? That never crossed my mind, I'll stop now!" No, it is
not about "ignorance"-- it is about the culture not placing a personal value in the emotional state of animals, while yours does. And you aren't going to change their values any more than they are going to change yours.
