I subscribe to a meat CSA where I live, but never knew until I read this story that all meat processed in USDA facilities is sprayed with chemicals. And I'm certainly no animal lover, but to think that the final moments for these animals are spent in some large processing facility they've never spent time in, and they're killed by people they don't know, that just seems wrong.

They've started a crowd funding campaign to pay for their legal fees. I encourage you to contribute, or, and possibly even more importantly, write to their senators.

The senators for Pennsylvania are Bob Casey and Pat Toomey:

There are two gofundme campaigns active, and still receiving donations, though they are both a bit dated:

I process my own meat all the time, but I never get caught. I do wonder what those guys are doing with all those buggy whips, though.

I thought you were being serious. I had great uncles that did farming, but I was banned from ever seeing how the animals were dispatched.
