On the same page I read a story about Brad Pitt who wrote a letter to Costco asking them to make sure there chickens were free range and treated well. They're working on it.
When Bard Pitt tells you to be nice to chickens, you be nice to chickens. lol
Yeah, like behead people and press their daughters into sex slavery. The good old days, when there were decent heroes, amiright? Hey, remember when our heroes used to send bears at children, flood out the world...and call grieving mothers a bitch for being part of the wrong tribe? That's what we -used- to "worship".
Personally, I'd call Brad an improvement, even if he is a chicken sympathizer.
