alex the american legislative exchange council those of the guys you create
model level legislation and and and farm out to and
republican legislators around the country try to get uh... favorable
legislation on behalf of corporations written well they've got a at a new push
that they're making now they're moving to criminalize the filming of animal
abuse on factory farms
uh...
the right
the alexa sitting around in six states could make it a crime to film animal
abuse of factory farms or to lie about
you were identity on a job application
in order to get access to the job to a slaughterhouse to be able to
the animal these felony criminal animal abuse going on ob the meat industry has
already come out and responded to say that they think that this is a great
idea they they don't have to but i don't have any secret workign asset shocker i
know uh... the humane society of united states uh... spokesman
when a story came out he was asked to comment and a main side he says that
the meat industry's response to these exposes has not been to try to prevent
these abuses from taking place
but rather it's really just been to prevent americans from finding out
about these abuses in the first place
uh... and he also said that what they're trying to do
is but they're doing is trying to pass laws throughout the country
they don't just shoot the messenger
they seek to in prison
the messenger
it's very clever
i mean any
taken sides of this if you're doing nothing wrong
why do you care
if you do anything wrong if your you know
abusing animals and wide what you can
came after me they would say uh... it simply does that do they say that that
these are used to take place on
on private property and he should have some expectation that you're not being
videotaped like
if somebody's started to write the internship in the new film in the life
without me knowing it had become bothered i guess
but because of the fact is that tones of these
does happen expressions and when i was editing videos uh... last year we did
this video of obvious
piglets just being horrendously abuse thrown around for fun audiences lol
exactly and eighty-eight phiri's let's not worry about stopping that stuff
what's the difference and i guess
realistically if we're gonna kill them keep them
that seems like the biggest problem but still you should care about that not
just
uh... the videotaping of it also actually add as scientific sort of
sanitation reason for this as well you know that when you have these really
disgusting practices like
there were some ideas that came out in the past couple of years about down or
catholic catholic and walked over to stick to walk
that were actually supposed to buy lobby kept out of the food supply that they
would you know they had videos shelling them being dragged and and and forced
into the food supply anywhere propped up what rob and i said that they want to
support your products
well there
yes and there are some some sort of sanitation reasons behind it but also i
think you know americans are just philosophically and very strongly
against us
and how you know i happen to agree with the uh... humane society that means is
that they don't really wants to spend the money to do things right to train a
personal
uh... properly
acrobats fire
e everything that we take everything we ingest it from our vegetables tourney it
we it happened on the farm and there's idyllic away to do it right in a way to
get longing understand people who stand for and not mean he needed albeit a
crime
fine i've personally doubt
but like
i don't know at i'd feel like if you're doing something wrong why aren't i want
to know about it and i'd and i understand he said he had a great point
is a nice falling around the camera
you know you're gonna be a little upset about it but
this also goes back to the for some of the cam on mit romney was running in the
forty seven percent in people said you know uh... was that at violation that
this guy was in there and it was supposed to be a private thing it's like
why don't we needed to know that he thought that way
adhesive film piglets in this pcd
candidate thing that andy and one final thing for halat
he said that at the end of the day it's about personal property rights of the
individual right to privacy you would money coming into your home with a
hidden camera
unless you're doing something illegal you know i have a problem with that
applicable could put on makeup one i think that people might oppose this if
you uh... don't focus on the kennel angles focus on the line on the resume
angle because of the slippery slope but i don't think most people want like
resumes to be made a legal
it's a little bit of it
don't
it's kind of sad how far backwards we've gone to victory in about a hundred years
like i remember
what i remember but i've read about
when at the time looking up it was learning about just how terrible are
meatpacking industry was wind and it was it was awful what was going in people
ravinder fingers chopped off in the machinery and it was going into the
that's what the solution back then was that should get some food regulations
and the soviet that
the solution now apparently would've been judged something on the publishing
of the jungle
so that's kinda sad
uh... but also i think that that that
i think the gateway police this attract that's a great
specifically
people oppose the that abuse but i think that they're they're still willing to
allow it to go on because it seems like a necessary part of the fact that
released country
we as a planet we eat meat
there's gonna be abuses related to that because corn doesn't complain he take it
but it what does
and people are willing to allow that to happen because
they want to keep the meat at the end of the day
but i've had faked chicken recently and it is pretty damn realistic and i think
you have a couple more decades
i wonder
how far it would be able to come
yet at the reds in the diesel pretty dot the fake chicken is just as good as the
real stuff
and grandson try it out
