One of my favorite North Carolinian rivers--the Neuce--was destroyed by a factory hog farm while I lived there.  I actively campaigned against it, to no avail, because people thought it would bring 'em jobs.  All it would cost was the death of their river and a stench too unbearable to live alongside.  They regret it now.

And the fact that I don't eat pork of course added insult to injury.  But that is my religious choice.  I don't try to harass or force others to adhere to my dietary choice.  I leave that to sanctimonious, hypocritical 'vegan' weeble-wobbles...
