Why do people expect everyone to be happy just because it’s a certain day and/or time of year? And why does that attitude only seem to be promoted during that time? Should you not be caring and giving all year round? I just don’t understand. It seems like some people use this time to be good in an…

10 billion animals are slaughtered each year for human consumption (this isn’t even counting the billions of marine animals that are killed)
9 billion of those animals are chickens.
If you think chickens don’t die for egg production you’re kidding yourself.

Backyard farms contribute to the deaths of millions of chickens every year. This is why:

This is after at least 100 were reported killed yesterday. Syrian activists are reporting numbers in the 360s within the last two days alone.
