1. Factory farming in all its permutations...

should be seriously curtailed, if not eliminated. It is a blight on the animals involved and the environment.

4. Can't watch the video.

It will play, but I am unable to make myself look at it.

5. We're naive if we think any of the meat we buy is any different

One of the reasons I'm a vegetarian

6. If you've ever taken chicken.....

...from a package and wondered why the legs or thighs were broken, now you know -- they were made that way. And for those baby-boomers who've wondered why the chicken parts today are so much larger than they were when we were kids, it's the cross-breeding and the arsenic.

- Yum.

7. I've seen what happens to these chickens

even as they load and unload the trucks. It is beyond horrendous.

No way is that meat healthy.

I keep chickens. They are sweet (and sentient) creatures.

8. Chicken farmer who spoke out about factory farm abuses immediately audited by Perdue

The farmer faces potential disciplinary actions in what some speculate was an act of retaliation
