  Lots of jokes but this was an old man that died doing his regular job to keep people fed. Rip
context: The pig didn't really "kill" the butcher. The struggle caused the butcher to slip and fall and mortally wound himself with his own cleaver.
  Edit: seems like the wound was on the foot and it was really the fall that was fatal. >
  
  Found the pig's lawyer >
  
  If the glove don’t fit, you must acquit! >
  
  If the the hoove can't heave your must bereave. >
  
  If the snout don't snort you must abort! >
  
  If you're dead tired at working, then you are the thing the pig is porking. >
  
  "Call an ambulance....but not for me!"
  - Chinese pig >
  
  Weird. American pigs say the same thing. >
  
  If a pig kills its butcher, it should be allowed to live.
  ​
  This was a fight to the death and the pig won, and should be allowed to live the rest of its days free. >
  
  Here's a cow, not a killer cow, but one determined enough to escape that people saw fit to let her stay free. >
  
  good for her, i hope she's happy >
  
  More people are killed every year by pigs than by sharks, which shows you how good we are at evaluating risk.
  
  Bruce Schneier >
  
  Yeah, but if we rounded up thousands upon thousands of sharks in commercial areas and tried to take a cleaver to them, I’m sure the sharks could rack up a similar kill count >
  
  That's not a very fair comparison. You know how hard it is to swing a cleaver under water? >
  
  Need to try this sometime when I have access to a pool.  I mean, it's harder to swing your arms underwater, but the edge surface area is tiny on a knife, so it wouldn't provide a ton of drag. >
  
  I think you attack with disadvantage. >
  
  It probably did >
  
  This is the start of animal farm. >
  
  Four legs good!  Two legs bad! >
  
  Just wait until the pigs are “more equal than others…” >
  
  That’ll do, pig. That’ll do. >
  
  When my friend worked for ROSPA (UK health and safety agency) he used to get a summary every day of all sorts of serious accidents. 
  One was an instructor, two trainees go into to kill a pig. Result one dead, one seriously injured. Pig survives. He forwarded it to me with "John Wick the pig" as a title. >
  
  I’m sorry to be so cynical, but how did this make international news?  A significant number of people must be killed annually in slaughterhouse accidents.  Things have improved since Upton Sinclair wrote the Jungle, but it’s still a very dangerous job. >
  
  It’s an incredibly dangerous job. And it’s been shown to have significant adverse psychological effects on workers. At U.S. slaughterhouses, annual turnover is close to 100%. >
  
  People should just eat less meat fr >
  
  People will get upset with you for even suggesting this. A lot of people just don't want to change their ways and will get very defensive to justify what they do >
  
  Developer needs to fix this flaw >
  
  Why was the police officer at the slaughterhouse in first place? >
  
  Suspected there was a person of color there holding a weapon...or a hat. >
  
  I’ve seen many pigs kill many men >
  
  It was a blood bath. >
  
  Sounds like the pig won the death match. Should be put out to pig-stud and enjoy his remaining days. >
  
  Maybe, but I don’t think they want those traits to be heritable. >
  
  I hope the pig escaped and ran away to a happy free life >
  
  This little piggy went postal >
  
  the pig was in the right >
  
  Go vegan. >
  
  No way! They’re harder to kill than pigs and they don’t taste any better. >
  
  I live about 10 minutes from there! Really weird to see this on here… gotta say, it’s a terrifying sound walking up the river and hearing the screams echo through the night. One evening as we walked by the squealing went silent for about 5 minutes (which I’d not heard before previously) and that gap felt surreal until it started again. >
  
  Damn, sounds like you live within earshot of hell on earth. 
  A hell that would not need to exist if people stopped fucking eating animals. >
  
  Lab grown meat is coming and it’s gonna change everything.  Might take a generation or two but it’ll happen >
  
  Would happen a hell of a lot quicker if the government would subsidize meat alternatives. >
  
  You know Charlie Walser's got that place out east of Sanderson? >
  
  You know Charlie Walser?
  He's got that place out east of Sanderson?
  Well you know how they used to slaughter beefs,
  hit 'em right there with a maul...
  ..truss 'em up and slit their throats?
  Here Charlie's got one all trussed up
  and all set to drain him...
  ...and the beef comes to.
  It starts thrashing around.
  Six hundred pounds of very pissed-off livestock
  if you'll excuse me.
  Charlie grabs his gun there to shoot the
  damn thing in the head...
  ...but with all the swayin' and then the trashin' it's a glance-shot and
  ricochets around and comes back hits Charlie in the shoulder.
  You go see Charlie,...
  he still can't pick up his right hand for his hat...
  The point bein', even in the contest
  between man and steer,...
  ...the issue is not certain. >
  
  I mean if someone is trying to kill me I would probably do the same >
  
  Not by the hair of THAT pig's chinny chin chin... >
  
  So is the pig out on bail? >
  
  Butcher didn’t have the chops. >
  
  The pig won fair and square.
  Now release it into nature. >
  
  Yeah for the pig! Except he probably just got slaughtered by someone else. >
  
  Considering that millions or maybe even billions of pigs have been slaughtered for food over the years, I feel like they’ve earned this one. >
  
  According to this it's  a little over 100m pigs a year in the US alone, so yeah  billions. >
  
  I wouldn't use statista as a source. It's a shitty website that doesn't show you any primary source unless you're a premium subscriber.
  Never trust a source unless you checked their primary source. >
  
  Oh, that's goofy. Luckily this doesn't seem like a controversial stat, but PETA cites it, which ironically makes it inherently suspicious to me now lol >
  
  You are correct in assuming that PETAs sources are as biased as they are.
