Bracing herself she’d thrown open the door to the store, the bell ringing merrily to herald her arrival. Every time the bell rings, a divorce attorney gets a Porsche. Afton had looked around nervously, wondering if she’d actually spoken the words out loud. The cynical thought had popped into her head out of nowhere it seemed. Pushing it aside, she’d waded into the gown-packed establishment, almost blinded by the unrelenting sea of white dresses, intent on finding one of her own as her wedding date loomed ever nearer. ↗

More laying hens are slaughtered in the United States than cattle or pigs. Commercial laying hens are not bred for their flesh, but when their economic utility is over the still-young birds are trucked to the slaughterhouse and turned into meat products. In the process they are treated even more brutally than meat-type chickens because of their low market value. Their bones are very fragile from lack of exercise and from calcium depletion for heavy egg production, causing fragments to stick to the flesh during processing. The starvation practice known as forced molting results in beaded ribs that break easily at the slaughterhouse. Removal of food for several days before the hens are loaded onto the truck weakens their bones even more. Currently, the U.S. egg industry and the American Veterinary Medical Association oppose humane slaughter legislation for laying hens on the basis that their low economic value does not justify the cost of 'humane slaughter' technology. The industry created the inhumane conditions that are invoked to rationalize further unaccountability and cruelty. ↗
