death, we have violated state and/or
local laws that protect animals from
abuse and neglect. If a USDA licensed
facility does the same thing, they have
violated the 'rules and regulations', not
the law.


Here is the article: http://www.igsafehouse.org/livestock.../LSReport5.pdf

Well, that clears some things up for me, now I can better understand why these new laws are being addressed in the penal code by the various states.
