You’re more likely to go to prison for exposing animal cruelty than for committing it trib.al/KZPZS3B

Convicted, and immediately remanded to jail, facing 42 months, for saving lives. The system is broken and upside down.
Wayne Hsiung, the co-founder of the #AnimalRights group @DxEverywhere and a leader in the #RightToRescue movement, has been convicted of charges related to the rescue of sick and dying chickens and ducks from animal factories in Sonoma County, CA.
You know the criminal justice system is broken when the people who rescue animals are the “criminals” and the those who abuse them are the victims. #SonomaRescueTrial pressdemocrat.com/article/ne…

A new generation of animal welfare activists argue that U.S. state bystander laws give them the right to save animals in distress—including those in factory farms

Animal rights activists disguised themselves as factory workers and took off with birds from Petaluma Poultry's farm. Activists said an investigation found "rampant abuse and disease" with some chickens being scalded alive and others left to die slowly. bit.ly/43ZmPse

“DxE’s theory — that when you show a jury of ordinary citizens what happens to animals in the meat industry, they’ll agree that they deserve rescue — turned out to be true, challenging the idea that the animal rights agenda is radical or unpopular.”

“We published this video within an hour with both my name and Alicia Santurio’s name attached to it because we believe what we’re doing is legal and morally right. We’re rescuing sick chickens from a factory farm that has a history of abusing them."

Did you know: The @FosterFarms slaughterhouse in Livingston uses 3-4 million gallons of drinkable water every day - more than ALL OTHER WATER USE in the city combined! Foster Farms is bad for the planet and bad for communities.

The pork industry has argued that its gas chambers for hogs are "animal friendly" and "painless." Then an activist sneaked into a meat plant and at risk to herself installed spy cams in the gas chamber--and the videos are devastating. My column with video: nytimes.com/2023/02/04/opini…
How could it be that a heinous extermination procedure was adopted by the federal government to kill animals? Unfortunately, gas chambers are everywhere. Not only in USDA’s practice and in animal shelters but in over 2 dozen slaughterhouses in America. STOPGASCHAMBERS.ORG
