All of us have seen the depictions of Christ, a gentle man, surrounded by animals, often carrying a lamb, children, disciples who is the symbol of Christianity, a man of miracles, the epitome of purity and goodness; who would never harm an innocent. Today the Resurrection is celebrated worldwide - the triumph of good over evil, eternal life after death.
And then when I booted up the computer, and the CNN page came up, a video caught my eye.
It was an undercover video taken at a calf ranch in Texas and the vicious cruelty meted out on these innocent animals destined for your table by cruel men without souls. What is it in their mental and emotional makeup that makes cruelty all right?
There are several agricultural states and a Senator (scroll through the blog - you will see the entry about photographing cruelty at ranches, farms, labs and puppy mills and making whistleblowing a felony) from Michigan, I think, who are prepared to lobby for this victory. Florida is one of them.
What you are about to see is so graphic that the tv reporter couldn't allow most of it to be viewed.
I just watched the first minute and burst into tears and sobbing. I have been fortunate enough to have kept livestock in my care since the 1970s. I'm sick about this.
Even if you are not inclined to act on behalf of animal welfare, this is YOUR food supply.
There is a humane way of ending the life of a suffering animal by way of a merciful bullet.
These people are barbarians.
DO NOT LET CHILDREN WATCH THIS VIDEO. IT IS MUCH TOO DISTURBING.
