I believe I heard in the Sunday news(OPB)- a Judge in Pasco Wash. Granted Water Rights to a new cattle feeder lot (30,000 head of cows) over the rights of the local farmers who now draw that water for irrrigration!

This many cows in one location is Abominable! Factory Beef- at the expence of all of us- & an act of ecology be dammed!

How many Chickens, Pigs, Milk Cows and Beef Cows are made to live under these horrible conditions in Oregon? I'd like to know!

What can the average citizen do to have these pratices- condimed and out lawed!
