by passing Proposition 2, California redeemed itself in my eyes...
I know it was a very controversial Proposition, but it made sense and I am glad to see that most Californians agree that it is a good idea that Chickens, Pigs, and Veal Calves can actually turn around in their cages. It'll cost the industry a lot of money to retrofit, but they should not have put Compassion aside for profits in the beginning; if you ask me. I watched the Oprah episode about this and felt that the Meat Industry was lying and spewing hateful speech upon what they called "Animal Lovers". All in all, the decision rested with the people and they found it to be absurd that Pigs live their whole lives in cages where they cannot even turn around. Hopefully this will make ALL meat-based industry take a new look at their compartmental cages.
