Arizona Proposition No. 204
November 2006
The debate between supporters and opponents of the Arizona Proposition
204 is a heated one. This Proposition, the Humane Treatment of Farm Animals
Act, would ban keeping pregnant sows and calves (for veal production) from
being confined and crates so small they cannot even turn around.
Supporters of this initiative argue that the animals’ instincts and needs
should be taken into consideration. Opponents argue that their animals,
although in small cages, are well taken care of. Interestingly enough, the
only Arizona's large hog farm has refused to let reporters in to see for
themselves.
The callousness of the factory farming industry can be seen in the way they
treat God’s animals. Keeping pregnant sows and calves in crates is very
cruel; moreover, claiming that factory farms take good care of their animals
and trying to deceive the public is outrageous. God asks compassion from us
for all creation.
