On profit-driven factory farms, veal calves are confined to dark wooden crates so small that they are prevented from lying down or scratching themselves. These creatures feel; they know pain. They suffer pain just as we humans suffer pain. Egg-laying hens are confined to battery cages. Unable to spread their wings, they are reduced to nothing more than an egg-laying machine... The law clearly requires that these poor creatures be stunned and rendered insensitive to pain before (the slaughtering) process begins. Federal law is being ignored. Animal cruelty abounds. It is sickening. It is infuriating. Barbaric treatment of helpless, defenseless creatures must not be tolerated even if these animals are being raised for food. Such insensitivity is insidious and can spread and is dangerous. Life must be respected and dealt with humanely in a civilized society. - Robert Carlyle Byrd U.S. senator
