Is this what we have become? The video at the link is very disturbing. It shows abject violence to dairy cows and calves. It made me sick to my stomach. In this day and age, I cannot fathom that there are people who could do this to a helpless animal. But yet, I know it happens on a daily basis. One of the farm workers has been arrested on animal cruelty charges. But at most, he’ll only get a few years in prison for his crimes, because we all know that animals don’t matter.
After watching this, I think it’s time we ask our legislators, both at the state and Federal levels, to make crimes like this felonies, with some real hard time minimum sentences. I’m talking 10 years+ without parole. Or maybe, just subject these lowlifes to the same treatment. In the meantime, we need to find out what companies buy milk products from Conklin Farms and ask them to stop.
