Last night I stood outside a slaughter house with fellow activists to bear witness and give water to baby pigs who’s lives were about to end. We saw about 8 trucks come through in the span of 2 hours. The reality is that many more trucks than that come through Farmer Johns 7 days a week. The pigs on these particular trucks were able to get some sort of kindness and compassion before they lost their lives while the rest of the time these poor innocent animals do not. These 6 month old babies were scared, thirsty, hungry and covered in their own feces. The saddest part of it all is that we can stop this. If we all just choose to make more compassionate choices every time we sit down to eat, then this can stop. The market is all about supply and demand. Please take pause to think about what we are doing to the animals and the planet when have a meal today. #govegan
