Farm Animals

Aren't farm animals great? Aren't animals great in general? When I look into the eyes of an animal, I don't see a piece of meat, I don't see an object, I don't see property....I see a living being who feels pain the same way I do. When I think about that, it breaks my heart knowing that so many animals out there are treated this way. It is archaic to think that our society can continue down this path or that it will continue to be acceptable in future generations.
