So people say there are two sides to every story. However, I have a hard time believing that what animal rights groups have to say about agriculture is a very accurate portrayal of the other side. That's because I grew up on a farm, a beef farm to be specific. Caring for our animals was the number one priority, and I don't think my family is unique. I have been on too many farms and have not seen the things that animal rights groups talk about.
I found this story awhile ago, and wanted to share it with you. Compassion for Animals and the Animal Rights Collective, two animal rights groups on George Mason University's campus, hosted their their third animal Pay-Per-View session. These two organizations paid students a $1 to watch a four-minute segment of "Meet Your Meat," an animal rights video. The video contains some extremely graphic footage of animal abuse. There are bad apples in this industry, but farmers and ranchers do not stand for this type of animal treatment and are trying to rid our industry of these people. The video says these are standard methods in animal production. This is not true.
