143 million pounds of beef recalled and the shocking video
by: Sarah

143 million pounds of beef has been recalled, here is a video showing the reason behind the massive recall.

I’m surprised this is video is the reason for the largest beef recall, not because I think these cows who are too unhealthy to walk should be consumed, but Peta has made videos like this before.

I’ve been to concerts where Peta booths have been set up, I stood there for a bit taking in the horrifying pictures and videos they had on loop.  I still eat meat, I just think that we do not take care of the animals we have on our planet, especially the ones we are about to digest.

Now, I lived on a farm as a child, so I know a bit about slaughter.  We always took our animals to the same place, which was the best butcher we could ever ask for.  Either way, no abuse and we had good healthy meat.

The use of forklifts and chains to drag cows is unnecessary, but watch them do it.
