Good luck
It's they're own faults for doing illegal activities
Isn’t he getting impeached
….and people wonder why we get cancer…..
Well stop eating pork and this problem is solved
1:11…… Umm…. I don't think he realizes Trump paid nearly 90% of his own campaign…………
What the f is wrong with the government? Corruption
Betchu he was trespassing. Which means robbery.
I really hope the judge and the jury have any common sense and don’t send him to prison, they should also bring up how killing an unarmed person at its own home gives you 10 years, when you should be punished with LIFE IN PRISON, but trying to tell the truth and open people’s eyes send you to prison your whole life smhhhhh
I… I don’t even know what to say. I’m speechless at the way those animals are being treated. Speechless. I’m done.
You mean you stole someone’s property and think that it’s ok have fun in jail
Crony capitalism will be the end of humanity
iam not a vegan but no living thing deserves to live like this .
Thanks Trompudo!
That man broke into someone else’s property and stole their piglets, a vital part of their livelihood. Don’t glorify this, liberals. This is crime, plain and simple.
Yooo farmers gotta do a living, and this chigga stealing pigltes. What this dude this was theft
absolutely what’s wrong with our governing system. so unbalanced so wrong.
If you haven't seen "meet your meat" look it up. ?
crazy how people still vote for trump..
How can these horribly people even sleep at night ? ?
everyone needs to stop buying animal products so these industries die already
I have this to say…
Whether these people get their 70 years or not, they are undoubtly not just American heroes but global ones. Their actions are pointing HOW the crazy amount of corruption in our societies affects the rest of us all. The well being of all Earthlings is at risk. Also, I'm glad they're considered "terrorist" because big corporations should be scared of the PEACEFUL PROTESTS that are going to continue to come their way. Peace and love to all and be safe out there
How are groups like Antifa running around without being shut down but this guy hiding a piggy is labeled a threat.
70 years is outrageous. That said, you did break the law.
So, you trespassed, stole and had no remorse for those actions because you wanted to do the “right thing”. You did all the wrong things. You’re not Robin Hood. You have to effect change by changing people’s minds not acting like you’re Batman out to save the piglets. Plus, I really love bacon. ?
White kid shoots up church: Troubled kid
Asian man saves a sick piglet: Terrorist
Me: ?
Stealing or rescued?
the world really is getting crazier out there
Wow. How is this illegal? Shouldn't this considered part of our right of freedom of speech? If getting lifetime prison time sentences for trying to report and save abused animals, are we really living in the land of the free? What a shame.
But then animal abusers never get the punishment they deserve.
Well dont steal fool
Does anyone know how to help this man?
America has been a chaos since Donald Trump happened. I wish the 2 term rule was removed and Obama could take place as the President again.
I hope you get convicted
Support the right to rescue!!! Animals are not possessions they are beautiful individuals!
