"Anyway..that only proves they go insane when locked up."

How do you think this method was discovered? Years ago pigs were raised outdoors and had large pens for farrowing. A large number of "baby pigs" were eaten by their mothers. Farrowing pens were designed to increase the survival of the newborn piglets.

PETA uses emotional approaches to issues and never bothers to do any research. Years ago, when there were more people that grew up on farms and wild animals were part of a persons everyday life... the radical PETA crowd would be recognized for their politcal agenda.

Now, the vast majority of people grow up in the urban environment and the only large experience they have with animals is as pets. The movie "Bambi" is a fantasy and too many people grew up using it as an influance on their life. Thanks to Walt Disney the PETA people can spew their propaganda and most will fall for it.

You do understand the difference between a Constitutional Amendment, a state law and an administratative code don't you?

The Constitutions are supposed to GUIDE the laws, not regulate tiny little provisions that effect a handful of people.....ummm...errr....PIGS!!!

The main objection on this thread seems to be that this is purely a fundraising stunt by PETA. They are blatantly preying on the weak minded because nobody else could possibly think a Constitutional Amendment is appropriate here.
