Oh, so this fat blowhard wants to kiss up to conservatives, does he? He could start by pardoning every otherwise law-abiding person his state has locked up for violating New Jersey’s ridiculous gun laws.
Then he could ask the legislature to reform those same laws to bring them in line with the norms of the rest of the country and the Supreme Court’s definitive reification of our Second Amendment rights.
Until then, he can kiss my @$$.
Bacon to go from $6 per pound to $12 per pound.
It does seem cruel to confine an animal that severely for long periods of time.
I love to read the sites posts. They always bring out the animal loving Leftists. The same Leftest would think nothing of writing a check to Planned Parrenthood or having an abortion, but God forbid a hog is uncomfortable while awaiting slaughter.
Leftists are misanthropes. They love animals, can’t stand people.
Well, it is even crueler to kill and eat them, but I love me a pork butte and ribs so.....
Hey, leave his wife out of this.
Steve King got the Missouri Democrat AG to join him on the egg lawsuit.

If California legislators are permitted to mandate the size of chicken coops on Missouri farms, they may just as easily demand that Missouri soybeans be harvested by hand or that Missouri corn be transported by solar-powered trucks, Koster said in a statement.

The lawsuit is the latest effort by a Midwestern politician to fight food regulations in California. Big agricultural interests backed an amendment to the farm bill, authored by Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa), that would have superseded state laws that set local standards for production; the amendment, which is not included in the final version of the farm bill, was aimed squarely at California regulations.
Can’t wait to see the “Save the Pigs” bumper stickers sitting next to the pro-choice stickers....
Hang on a second. Have you ever heard of a sow being pregnant “up to 2 1/2 years”? Neither have I. They just lied to you.
Pigs are pregnant for two and a half years?
I don't know. That could anger their Muslim overlords.
I’ve been around family hog operations quite a bit. And the idea that a sow is going to be confined in a farrowing crate for two and a half years is laughable.
Breeding sows are pregnant for 112-115 days before birth, and I assume they’re bred more than once, so they spend a pretty good length of their lives crammed inside gestation crates.

Well whatever. But that’s not how they make it sound. They’re trying to make people believe they are cooped up in there for two and half years straight. That’s just not the case. Shoot, they couldn’t even be bred if that were true. lol...
