think about this and then go look it up your self.
Meats production in this country has been safe for over 100 years for some companies
some have had small problems but at best they have been clean..
In this last year the Extreme Animal Right groups attack these farms and companies and now videos and people come out saying the meat is bad.. Recalls of the meat and many go out of business thousands lose the jobs and homes. But the Meat recalled test out clean and safe(the news never tells you this)In California a major slaughter house and farm get video doing bad things but only TWO men are fired and 2 or 3 other people never come back in after the video airs and the video it self no one has seen the uncut with sound raw video HUSU has kept that under wraps and didn't give any footage to the USDA for month.
the local Vet to the area farm said that he and other have inspectors and there were never any down cattle put into the food chain Never was any one put in danger but the Extremest seem to feel the more fear the more people will stop eating meat or wearing fur or leather of drinking milk..SCARE THE PEOPLE is what they do and to hell with the animalsI was talking to some who was mad I had a real wool scarf they yelled about how bad the sheep were and it was bad to cut their wool off...Ah if you don't shear the sheep they can die I told them they said no that was not true..the said some Animal right group (we can all thing of who that was)
IT is truth they will die .. Milk cows can rupture if not milked and these groups want this to stop.
I for one don't care what the people next do eat or ware and they don;t care what do as well but Animal right vs Animal Welfare the lines have been lost in the dust and both side are losing if one does not stop and do the fact checking on what HSUS or what PeTa said is the truth when they have no really understanding of animals and farms.
I will that how we get our meats and all from farms may not be nice but it isn't suppose to be.I know people that order meat from those farms that were getting recalls i had it tested it was clean and this didn't get in the news ..maybe it is time it should?

Love the link--thanks for posting it!
On a related note, this is why we need to get involved with our local agriculture again: Buy at city markets, u-pick farms, and local produce stands, join CSAs or CS distributors for local farms. Become "localvores."
If you are eating foods produced within the 100-mile "foodshed" of your area, then you can get to know which farmers use what kinds of practices. You can "vote with your dollars," buying food from the farmers whose farm management reflect your principles--no pesticides or herbicides, cruelty-free/free-range animals, family-owned businesses. And it boosts local economy by keeping all that money circulating in your area, instead of being sent to pay someone 3,000-12,000 miles away.

great resource. maybe I can allow meat back into my diet once a week, if I can be sure that it was not mistreated.
