"Speaking to the benefits of openess and transparency, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis once said, "Sunlight is the best disinfectant". It's our duty to throw open the doors of factory farms and expose its ugly reality for all to see. Consumers have a right to know the truth about how their food is produced and how animals are treated. To the chagrin of the meat, dairy, and egg industries, most americans find their day-to-day practices both offensive and totally unacceptable. Surely an industry so out-of-control and offensive that its only recourse is secrecy should be examined with an evermore-critical eye. As a civilized society it's our moral obligation to prevent needless cruelty to animals - not to conceal it. Abuse thrives in darkness." - quote from Compassionate Living, MFA
