Happy (early) Thanksgiving, everyone!!
Butterball's House of Horrors: A PETA Undercover Investigation

I've not watched the video, nor am I likely to (following link goes to a page containing a LINK to the video, and does not automatically launch any video). Good link to send a letter to your reps about making birds part of the Humane Slaughter Act, though, amongst the details.

The "What the Investigators Saw" page is shocking, even to me (no pics, just descriptions):

3. I wish all poultry consumers could watch this in person.

The day I accidently ran across a slaughter house as a child on horseback in the countryside of Brazil, ( and this was decades ago for the ol' peacebuzzard) was the day I began my journey to vegetarianism and beyond.(beyond, thanks to this little forum...)

I will never forget the sadness of the old cow that was standing there and the brutality that followed.

The same goes for these birds...
