Stronger Laws to Enforce Humane Factory Farming

Stronger Laws to Enforce Humane Factory Farming

Target:
 President Barack Obama
Sponsored by: 
 The Humane Slaughter Act only covers cows and pigs it does not protect any poultry. All animals and poultry suffer and feel pain. Even with the Humane Slaughter Act in place animals and poultry are still frequently mistreated by workers at the farms, on the way to slaughter and at the slaughter houses. The slaughter methods are inhumane. The stun systems are ineffective and many animals/poultry are either skinned, boiled or dismembered alive and are aware of pain. These procedures need to either stop completely or at least be much more heavily monitored.
 Please help get this message to President Barack Obama!

We are writing to you with our deep concern for the animals and poultry in commercial factory farming. Animals and poultry are very frequently and horrifically abused at the farms and on the way to slaughter as well at the slaughter houses.  All animals and poultry feel pain. If we are going to eat meat and poultry we need to at least treat these animals and birds with respect, decency and without unnecessary suffering. 
  The Humane Slaughter Act only applies to cows and pigs. There are no laws protecting poultry from pain and abuse. Even with the Law many animals have been insufficiently stunned before slaughter, and so therefore suffered pain being dismembered or boiled fully aware.
  I am respectfully asking for your attention to this matter. Please help end the suffering to all animals and birds raised for human consumption.
 Thank you for your time.

Animals are an awe-inspiring component of our planet earth. Remember GOD stipulated their existence not US. Frankly, ‘only’ a vile delusional, underprivileged and dim-witted human being would exploit, harm, or inflict misery on an animal. Regardless if a person’s action is due to mere feeblemindedness or a GREEDY unscrupulous soul... it remains evil and abominable. PLEASE, Lets ALL work together to do what is ‘our MORAL obligation’ and protect animals from the human idiots roaming ‘OUR’ planet.

A strong society must protect those (people, flora and fauna) who cannot fend for themselves. We should set a better example for the rest of the world.

Factory Farming is Horrible. Animals have feelings I don't care what anyone says. I have seen pictures of these awful factory farming places. The pigs have no room to even move. These animals are kept in HORRIBLE places and it's not humane how people kill them. I cry everytime I see what goes on. Factory Farming should be made humane.

--- All animals deserve to be treated with respect. They are living creatures that feel fear and pain. Current conditions are tabtemount to torture and barbaric methods should not be tolerated in our modern world.
