Yes, what a dirty business it is to raise cows for slaughtering is!!!! I live on a highway but it is in a very affluent area and I pay top buck to live here. Everyday, I see slaughter truck after slaughter truck after slaughter truck drive by. The poor cows are so pathetic looking! I can't take it anymore, I want to get out of here to where I never have to see a poor cow going to the slaughter again! God help the poor cows that have been used for milk and then sent the slaughter. God help them!
You gotta be kiddin’ me. :)
If not, you better move.
BLM livestock grazing has declined by about 50 percent since 1941.
USFS likely even worse.
Owning remote farm land with good water rights seems like a good idea.
The AR , PETA , city liberals who want to subdivide the former range will fuss when their food prices go up.
It’s probably dairy farmers ditching their stock (as they have the right to do) . . . but don’t mind, someone will be by shortly to explain that a couple thousand wild horses are interfering with their God-given right to use public land to graze even more stock that we don’t need.
PETA’s Pet Killing Program Set a New Record in 2008.
Animal lovers worldwide now have access to more than a decade’s worth of proof that PETA kills thousands of defenseless pets at its Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. Since 1998, PETA has opted to “put down” 21,339 adoptable dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens instead of finding homes for them.
PETA killed 95 percent of the dogs and cats in its care last year. During all of 2008, PETA found adoptive homes for just seven pets.
Just seven animals — out of the 2,216 it took in. PETA just broke its own record.
Why would an animal rights group secretly kill animals at its headquarters?

I am not kidding. I pray that I never see another slaughter truck in my life. Where I live must be slaughter HELL! The poor cows look like dogs going to be killed. Farmers are so callous that they do not even care about the animals that they have used for milk for years. Actually, they do care to a degree because they dump the slow milking cows at a halfway station and then some scumbag delivers the cows to the slaughter. Unfortunately, my brother used to be friends with 2 slaughterers and they said that all of the farmers used to beg them not to "hurt" their cows as they were dropping them off to be slaughtered. Now the "farmers" have a half way station to drop the cows at. Then the slaughter truck driving a**holes bring the pathetic cows to the slaughter.
I'm not kidding. I am in slaughter hell! Ofcourse, it doesn't help to know all of the slaughter stories that I have heard from the poor scum riders that have to work at "the slaughter." I never want to have to live near a slaughter house again.
Check out FCS/FBS. It is what every cancer cell is grown in for cancer research. I own a lab that makes the stuff. If people like you had your way about things there would be no research.
You don’t understand the program, pilgrim. First, we round these animals up, then we pass a law forbidding their (humane) slaughter, then we keep them alive at your expense, then we forbid them shelter, then we propose a government program to provide them shelter.
I like wild horses, myself. But I can only look in abject horror about the way this whole issue is being managed.
Research on animals? I also used to work at a nursing home which was attached to a "world renowned research center" and everyday I would hear the poor dogs that they were experimenting on; crying and crying. I remember seeing a poor old man resident who looked very sad at hearing the dogs crying, "What are they doing to the poor dogs?" and the poor old ma said, "they do everything to them. Mostly, they drug them up terribly."
It's called the "For Sale" sign.
I like beef and I'm going to keep eating it until the day I day. I just finished a fine piece of Filet Mignon covered with mushrooms sauteed in garlic, butter, (from cows)and olive oil with a side of creamy Parmesan (from cows) polenta.
Tomorrow I'm going to grill the leftover polenta and serve that with some home made breakfast sausage (from pigs), and some fried eggs (from chickens). Some fresh mango and strawberries on the side sounds good, too.
Apparently you've never seen what a rotary plow does to wildlife. For every single bite of food you put in your mouth somewhere there's a gut pile.
That's the fact.
Now I think I'll have a nice bowl of ice cream before bed.
Best,

Yep, the price will go up. Of course if PETA and their followers have their way we won’t have any beef raised in the country and those horses will have the range and all the city people can go on vacation once a year to gaze at the romantic symbols of the West. *shaking head*
Most Americans don't eat horse but I have heard it is good. Lots of cultures around the world eat it with relish. Some people eat dogs. I don't, but that is my decision. Our state also has too many sealions, and they also need to be culled. The natives used to eat them. After they were protected they have become way overpopulated.
Not long ago, these horse herds were managed. The BLM rounded them up and utilized them. Some were sold to people as pets and others were slaughter's and the meat was sold, and the herds still thrived.
Now our government wants to spend 3/4 of a billion dollars to round up an feed these animals in areas where the herds are too large. I don't think we need to do this, as the money should not be spent, and a new solution does not need to be utilized.
Good post and you’re right. I hunted a good many years in Eastern OR where there used to be wild horses but they disappeared some years back. Don’t know if BLM rounded them up or if ranchers shot them but they aren’t there now.
The calves used to produce FCS don’t make any noise, they don’t survive the process. When someone you love has cancer you are going to be very glad that people like me believe in science and research.
