Alec Baldwin–Conklin Dairy Farm Proves Animal Activists Needed
Written by Vegetarian Star on June 2nd, 2010 in Actors, Animal Issues.
Alec Baldwin contributed to the Huffington Post his ideas on politics, specifically, his opinion of what New York city needs in a governor. Baldwin thinks the governor should have many priorities, including reducing air pollution and controlling taxes.
On his final note, Baldwin touched on another area of politics that has nothing to do with New York, but with Ohio and the recent undercover investigation that discovered cows being severely abused by employees.
“On another, certainly more important note, did you see the video posted here regarding regarding the Conklin Farm animal abuse story in Ohio? Let me assure you, someone risked their health and maybe their life to record that video. When you see this, you will never again doubt the necessity for and courage of the animal rights movement.”
Thanks to these activists, one employee has already been charged with several counts of cruelty and hopefully this serves as a wakeup call that mistreatment of farm animals is never politics as usual.
