Not really sure what to put here...I usually put relevant excerpts, but that got this post deleted for doing that

If only there was a device that can fit in your pocket that could record such things as well as allow you to call the cops

    If only the OP was allowed to present those recording and videos taken through their magical pocket device in court.

    There's these people called the police, may be you present it to them, if they don't do anything may be try getting that changed instead of breaking the law yourself

    And when decades of lobbying to change the laws don’t work and the animals are still being abused?

    Edit: lol at people downvoting this. Do you think there isn’t physical abuse going on here? The ag gag laws are working I guess, but footage of the abuse is out there

    What are people supposed to do besides lobby? Lobbying didn’t work.

    Are you against all climate change protests too? Animal agriculture is one of the biggest drivers of climate change, so you probably hate Greta Thunberg, since she commits so many crimes and is always getting arrested, right?

    So I SHOULD break in and record it, like the group in this Vox article has done? Your comments seem to be against them, but then you make statements that sound like they’re defending these actions.
