This is a practice that is illegal in some countries due to its cruelty. As a Wisconsinite, I must respond. Any comment regarding cows and their treatment is a comment regarding dairy farmers. The PETA elite doesn't know that dairy farmers often name their cows, know their individual temperaments and make sure their cows are healthy and comfortable. They keep abreast of bovine health issues and technological advances related to milking and keeping cows happy.
Dairy farmers are ethical.
Their consistency and commitment is to be admired. They teach their children the value of hard work, perseverance and respect - the true character of America. PETA members should become informed before spending money to misinform the general public regarding milk and cows. Now that would be truly ethical.
