captured on tape by animal rights activists

sarc:

How dare they! Don't they know there are LAWS against recording people unawares? I think these "animal rights activists" need to be investigated by a blue ribbon panel, and EXCORIATED in the fringe media! These meat packing plants just want to HELP PEOPLE EAT, so what business do these "activists" have trying to interrupt that sacred mission! /sarc

Just trying to square the treatment of James and Hannah with this...

You’d think they’d hold this story for closer to Thanksgiving.

I suppose a duck was too small and a goose was too loose...so the turkey must have been just right.

I have seen the video of this.....these workers were down right mean to the animals....there was no excuse for this. Slamming the animals against the walls then laughing about it. There was no call for it. Just take the animals in have their heads cut off and be done with it! No need to torture the animals! This was truly sick and these people don’t need to be in society.

Morgana, I got jumped on for saying that Southern WV folks don’t appreciate outsiders meddlin’ in their business. I thought it was a compliment. Apparently not.
