I'm not an animal person by any means but I've never been cruel to animals as well. Chickens are forced in small cages where they walk over dead chickens, but people are ok with that as long as they get their fried chicken and spicy strips. So what counts as animal abuse? Only when the animal is said to be "domesticated"? Pigs have IQ's higher than dogs but frick that, I need my bacon and tenderloin. Humans are such Hippocrates.

I've never heard of a chicken or pig called "man's best friend" but, I agree ... the mass production and slaughter of chickens and pigs, the way they do it these days, is inhumane and something definitely needs to be done about it.

The way chickens are raised and slaughtered, having so much steroids in them by the time they are 8 weeks old, that their breasts are so big they can't even walk ... yeah, that's just bad.

And pigs are very bright, and can be domesticated, plus Muslims hate them so they must be good ... but they are damn edible and when they go feral or wild they revert back to being mean in a hurry, so I don't have a lot of problems with eating pigs, I just wish it could be done more humanely.

I honestly wish livestock, barnyard species, were free-range raised, old school style, on local levels rather than the mass production facilities in play today.

Arkansas, although their mascot is a pig, is really funded by the (Tyson) chicken industry, and Walmart of course ... two corporate villains of modern America.

We raise our own chickens (and eggs), pigs, goats and beef here on my farm. All steroid free, grass and corn fed, free range, au naturale.

I knew some Bama fan would defend this guy. Only one. But still.

Glad to see the other Bama fans call this guy out. What a jerk.

I wonder if Terrence Cody could even fit in a Hippo-crate?

Some people may be okay with it (just like people that are okay with what Lard-arse Cody did). This case is very specific about what happened and who is responsible though, so of course people are going to be more upset.

When people are buying chicken from restaurants, they usually aren't buying them with specific information about how they were treated before they made it to their plate. Some restaurants have no standards about that kind of stuff, but some do. But most of the time, people don't even know what the conditions were behind the scenes (decent or bad). So it's really a different situation.
