Mercy for Animals Canada!

http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/animals-are-animals-new-ads-say-207835601.html


The "Choose Compassion" ads are going up all over the cities in Canada, including Winnipeg.

The above link takes you to the Free Press's report on it.  What a piece of shit journalism.  First, the title and the words "feed animals" are so stupid.
Second, the journalist interviews Manitoba Pork Council dude for the last word.  Apparently, they're aiming for balance.
What a CROCK.
We live in a meat-eating society and when vegetarians get some press, the meat eaters need to get a say? The meat eaters and producers, with the government, the universities, and the culture in their pockets.  Pfffft.

I don't recall Twyla Francois getting the last word on the interview with the pork producer last week. You know, for balance.

Oh, and then the comments from the trolls.  No wonder the planet is over.  What a joke of a society we live in.   One of them wrote something about human evolution and meat-eating contributing to our intelligence as a species.   "Not in evidence here," wrote a commentator!  hahahahah!

We also know damn well that some sows end up giving birth in these godawful contraptions.  Shame on all of you who use them.

More on foaming manure pits.
