N.C. poultry worker arrested after video shows him stomping, throwing chickens

Greg Toppo   | USATODAY

A graphic undercover video depicting a poultry worker stomping chickens, breaking their necks and throwing them against a wall has prompted authorities in North Carolina to file criminal charges against the worker, the latest in an ongoing battle over animal rights playing out in U.S. factory farms and slaughterhouses.

Something wickedly tone deaf about considering that animal abuse but the rest of the operation is just fine.

If he got paid for stomping chickens snd throwing them against a wall it would be fine, apparently.

Hell the male chicks are tossed live into a meat grinder.

Really not seeing a distinction except the profit motive.

The crime isn't the cruelty.

It's doing it for free.
