Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger Tuesday signed legislation into law requiring that eggs sold in California come from hens that are not crammed into cages.
The law requires all eggs sold in the state as of Jan. 1, 2015, to come from hens able to stand up, fully extend their limbs, lie down and fully extend their wings without touching each other or the sides of cages.
This one went to ballot and was approved by voters last year. Local chicken farmers were against it because of the cost of retrofit, animal activists were, obviously, for it, but it wasn't a very big issue in the state as far as I recall.
I voted for it. I have seen too many documentaries about how inhumanely our poultry and livestock is handled.
And ya know it's true.
Cuz ya saw it on the T.V.
Folks get their arms up in the air about livestock, then claim that abortion is a woman's right.
Not sayin' what your beliefs are......I'm just sayin' that there's a lot of that goin' around.
