Piglets are taken from their family at 3 weeks old, denied sunlight, fresh air, food, water, and love. At 6 months they are taken to the slaughterhouse, killed, never knowing happiness. This happens about 500,000 times each half-day. All so you can have a piece of bacon. Steak- is it really the truth? Do you know what happens to who you eat? Even I can't say the horror that happens to it. It's revolting. Horrendous. Putrid. Disgusting. Here's another: You see a nice, shiny calfskin leather wallet. Do you even think about what it's made of? Nope. Well, here's what: A tiny, innocent little calf, at birth years, is instantly separated from their mother the moment he\she is born. They're shoved into a cart with a dozen- wait no, 5 dozen others, and lead to a slaughterhouse. Guess what happens there? As the baby calf is lead to the kill floor, they nuzzle the human's blood-filthy hands warmly, with their muzzle. Look at your hamburger or wallet and think that. Oh, And you know something that's so awesome? *Sarcastic* Here it is! Chicks, at birth, are dried immediately with a artificial dryer, then shoved into a basket with 500 others! The males are instantaneously thrown into a grinder at only 3 hours old!!! Then the females, live 18 months, give eggs until they can't anymore, and are SLAUGHTERED.
On this happy note *More sarcastic*, let me say: Everything Adolf Hitler did was LEGAL, LEGAL, LEGAL!!!
THINK ABOUT IT.

The Art and Aspirations of a Commenter
I believe in the power of a free exchange of ideas. I also recognize that words or access to
some information can be of harm to others, intentionally or unintentionally. As a
commenter, I therefore aspire to participate responsibly in the great online conversation
by:
* treating all bloggers with respect.
* seeking first to understand what is being said.
* celebrating another's accomplishments.
* using school appropriate language.
* rephrasing ideas in the blog that made me think, made me feel, or helped me learn
to let the blogger know his/her voice has been heard.
* commenting specifically and positively, without criticism. If I disagree, I will
comment appropriately, politely stating my perspective.
* being mindful always that I may be a role model to my audience, especially if they
are younger than I.
* making no reference to, link to, and/or giving access to any information that may
be inappropriate for a school setting.
* asking at least one question in my comment with the hopes of continuing a
conversation and deepening thinking.
* using a triple check before submitting any comment: Would I be happy to have my
mother read this comment? My grandmother? My favorite teacher?

I agree with you, the treatment of animals is deplorable. It's good to get the word out there and let people know :)
