Call for Action!
Call for Action to my wonderful From SAD to RAW readers...
By now you've heard about the UNBELIEVABLE torture of newborn calves and cows at the Conklin Dairy Farm in Ohio. If you've been living under a rock and haven't heard, by the time you're done with this blog post, you will know all you need to know to help make a difference in the lives of these abused animals.
Please do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING you can to help make sure these ef'ing cowards are put away for the rest of their natural born lives (or the max of 3 years and $750 fine....pathetic, but let's at least get him that)...
Read the full story which initially broke on 5/25/10
See what one of the ef'ers looks like (I'd REALLY like to have some quality alone time with this beast)
Watch the actual video of the abuse (FYI the video starts immediately - watch the WHOLE thing; the animals didn't get to look away as they were being tortured, so bare witness on their behalf)
See what the experts say about what the animals went through
Visit the website of the organization, Mercy for Animals, who went undercover to investigate and catch the ef'ers torturing these beautiful creatures

I watched. I cried. I ho'oponopono'd. I pondered. I commented. I donated. I petitioned. I linked. I shared. I wrote. I facebooked. I tweeted. I emailed. I blogged. And now I wait.
