SLAUGHTERHOUSE FOLLOWUP

I posted the video below that shows a slaughterhouse in Southern CA that was slaughtering cows that were too weak or sick to stand by themselves by pushing them with a forklift and or kicking them or spraying water in their noses and mouths (a la waterboarding) to get them to move to the slaughter.

Apparently the outcry from that video has resulted in a recall of 143 million pounds of beef -much of which was being used in school lunches, and an investigation.

Let's keep the pressure on.

UPDATE: Yahoo now has the story on its front page.
