Personally, I don't see how forcibly impregnating cows and then taking their newborns away as soon as they are born in order to ensure we get all the milk could be considered cruel. Everyone knows that all non-human animals are simply automata with no ability to experience emotions. Cows, like dogs or cats, have no ability to feel so we can do anything we want to them.

Also, veal couldn't exist without our wonderful dairy industry. Think of all those veal steaks you'd get rid of without the newborn males to slaughter from the dairy industry.
