“Waterkeepers [sic] is one [group] I not only am happy to support, but have joined as well. Robert Kennedy’s strong statements are exactly on target.” — ICCI board member Garry Klicker, responding in the Van Buren County Register to reports that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had compared hog farmers to Osama bin Laden
“Inside? No. I’ve seen videos, and talked to folks who have worked in them. I’ve driven by them.” — Iowa CCI executive director Hugh Espey, when asked by The Des Moines Register if he had ever personally seen the inside of a modern hog-confinement farm
“My feeling is if a farmer is raising hogs in a confinement, they probably need to be visited by DHS [the Iowa Department of Human Services] because they probably have kids in the closet.” — ICCI board member Garry Klicker, sharing his feelings about large-scale hog farmers, in the Burlington (Iowa) Hawk Eye
