This video shouldn''t be a suprise to any American that doesn''t walk around with their eyes and ears closed. Animal abuse in this country is rampant. If one is stupid enough to eat meat in the first place, you deserve what you get. It will cause cancer, high blood pressure, worms, and a host of other diseases. With all the things on this planet there is to eat, red meat should be the last thing anyone with a brain touches.

Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of this story is that it''s not just about an isolated slaughter facility, but occurs daily, throughout the country, at dairies, slaughterhouses and factory farms, to countless sentient beings and to our food.
As a nation are we just morally backrupt? Or is this more a matter of big corporations whose bottomline is more important than quality, stewardship, morality and ethical responsibility. Our understanding of where our food comes from and what it has been subjected to has been carefully censored and presented to us, the consumer, in sanitized (and often genetically modified or irradiate) form, pleasantly packaged with bucolic scenes of farm life. But after seeing this story, (thank you CBS for having the courage to expose a bitter and unpleasant truth), can anyone possibly believe that this is ethical? sensible? or even an acceptable way to do business with the natural world that sustains us?

Hopefully, it''ll wake us up to examine what we can do to make this world a better place; for ourselves and all living things. One way to end this madness is to change our shopping habits. Check out local food co-ops, health food stores, farmer''s markets and CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) farmers for ethically and locally grown safe foods (including meat, fish and dairy products). Gardening and cooking can making eating a pleasure...and spiritually uplifting!

It''s one area where you can do the right thing for the earth and yourself!

I have a novel idea. 1 - bann the use of fork lifts from slaughter houses. They have been used in so many abuse cases. 2. Shut down the slaughter house permanently. Its time to take business to task and if this abuse exists, shut them down period. We have been too nice with these horrible abuses too long. Where is California government?
