Another reason not to eat chicken
The Beastie Boys have always had a lot to say about everything from partying and girls to politics, social causes, and the city that they love (NYC, of course). You name it, they’ve covered it without bowing to censorship, so it should come as no surprise that they have decided to speak out against KFC to defend the rights of chickens.
MCA, Adrock, and Mike D fired off a letter to KFC head honcho David Novak, asking him to follow PETA’s recommendations and eliminate the worst abuses that chickens raised and killed for KFC endure, including painful debeaking, life-long crippling, and live scalding.
If KFC treated dogs and cats the way that it treats the nearly 800 million chickens who are killed each year for its restaurants, the company would be facing felony cruelty-to-animals charges. Chickens are probably the most abused animals on Earth, enduring a lifetime of misery, and KFC has a responsibility to ensure that chickens raised for its restaurants are protected from the worst cruelties.
