Sickening

I know they're only birds that are going to be killed anyway, but Jesus Fucking Christ. This is absolutely sickening... the footage available here is upsetting, and I wouldn't advise anyone with a nervous or sensitive disposition to view it. The footage shows chickens being thrown against walls, stamped on and kicked... PETA have a detailed expose on their website.

On July 20, 2004, PETA released the results of an undercover investigation into a KFC chicken slaughterhouse in Moorefield, W.Va., where workers were caught on video stomping birds, kicking them, and slamming them against floors and walls. Workers ripped the animals' beaks off, twisted their heads off, spat tobacco into their eyes and mouths, spray-painted their faces, and tied their legs together for "laughs."

This is absolutely unconscionable - the kind of people who would do these things for 'laughs' are nasty, twisted fuckers. Indiscriminate cruelty to animals is a symptom of a deep-seated psychological problem that bleeds into other aspects of a person's life. I hope these bastards get shafted so hard by the law that it's a decade before they can sit down again.
