This post is not beauty related, and I am sorry about that, but this is something that I felt really needs to be said. I posted this on my Facebook, sent out a message on Youtube, I emailed the link to a bunch of people, and I am posting this here. Obviously I think this is of utmost importance. As I am writing this, I am literally sobbing. As some of you may know, I am a major animal lover. I have been vegetarian since August 2010, I do not support animal testing, and I am an animal welfare activist. Well, I just received this email from one of the organizations I am on the email list for, Compassion Over Killing. They emailed me a video from the Humane Society (I am subscribed to them on Youtube and saw the video had been posted, but did not watch it) that showed the conditions of the pigs that are destined to be Tyson ham. I have seen a lot of animal cruelty videos, but I have never seen one that upset me this much, to the point that I am crying outloud, gasping at what I am seeing, and watching through half-closed eyes because I don't want to see what is on the screen. Never have I seen so many sadistic, heartless people! When something says "Viewer discretion advised" or something along those lines, I do not pay attention to it because I can stand the sight of a lot of horrible things, but this video shows some of the worst animal cruelty I have ever seen. I strongly caution you before watching this video. 
 
 Below is the link to both the video and the petition against Tyson foods. Please, at the very least sign the petition and boycott Tyson. Signing the petition takes less than a minute, and the more pressure that is put on Tyson, the sooner they will change their horrible ways.
