I wish America would get with the times and stop ear tagging all their farm animals and what is really sad is that most people here in America think that it's okay to cause pain, infection and degradation to innocent animals who have to live out their lives as slaves to their human captors. It really bothers me when people act all non-chalant about it just because that seems like a normal practice. Where is the thinking, clearly they are not giving any thought to anything. How lazy and stupid of them. Just because society does it as a regular practice does not make it okay. Society keeps getting more screwed up so clearly there is something wrong with their thinking.
