Why everyone should be concerned about AG GAG laws!

A number of states are trying to pass agricultural gag laws.  These laws try to limit people from watching out for the conditions of the farms and of the animals.  Not only are these laws a violation of the first amendment, they are dangerous to all kinds of animals, including humans.

Think about it.  If farmers were treating animals well why would they care if people took pictures or wanted to know what was going on?  If farmers were putting food safety first what would they have to hide?  

The answer is there is much to hide.  As people have seen pictures of the squalid conditions so many animals live in and the horror they face as they die, many people have not only stopped eating meat, poultry and fish, but also stopped consuming eggs and dairy.  Money hungry farmers who only care about money don't want people to see how they murder baby chickens and cows just simply for the crime of being born male.

These laws already exist in Idaho.  They are also a reason you should avoid eating food from Idaho.  In fact, given Idaho passed these laws they are a reason to boycott Idaho.  We should also boycott any other states that pass agricultural gag laws.  Perhaps we should even consider boycotting states with legislation pending.  

But most importantly of all go vegan.  Or at least try to eat vegan more often.
