I don’t know is this is sarcasm or not.
But a few years back a lady in Chicongo, IL got on television and said, “Who needs farmers, we can get everything we need at the supermarket”.
Right!
I knew a self-described Buddhist girl in college who told me that it’s not killing to eat meat that’s been killed by someone else.
Mind you, in post 20 I’m not talking about c.c. or his JRT... I have a PARTICULAR neighbor in mind. :-)
Why Obama got votes. Mentality of his supporters....

We used to know a fairly militant “animal-rights” vegetarian (nice gal otherwise). I remember one time she was over at our house and the teevee was tuned into some Discovery Channel show where lions were brutally killing and eating defenseless prey animals on the African plain or something.
The look of cognitive dissonance on her face was priceless! She had no idea who to root for... they were both animals, after all...
They *do* look like happy li’l critters.
I just have to smile sadly at articles like this. On the other hand when the SHTF they will not think about the rural areas where the Farms are. Since their food comes from the Grocery store.
I asked a college girl why she didn't eat meat and she said “it was to save the rainforest”. When I asked her where the rain forest was located, she didn't know. When I asked her how not eating meat saved the rain forest, she changed the subject.It reminds me of some stupid TV show I watched a few years back, beauties and nerds, something like that.
Couples competed. Couples composed of a male nerd and a female beauty. Each couple brought together just for the show, didn't know each other previously.
The episode I watched had a segment on the environment. Each beauty had to give a lecture about the environment and received an advance coaching session from her respective nerd.
The audience got to watch the coaching sessions.
With one couple, the nerd gave a pretty straight-forward logical presentation to his partner, prepared her as best he could. When she got up there she got all flustered and mumbled something about the environment being in big trouble and that's why we have to recycle. Her partner had never mentioned the word recycle. But it's the only thing she could think of, and it had nothing to do with anything he had prepped her on but it was the only thing about "environment" she could remember.

Years ago there was a series of photos in a national magazine (LOOK, LIFE) showing a crocodile attacking an antelope in Africa. The antelope escaped but bled to death, and the croc then left the water and got it’s prize.
A few weeks later, in the Letters to the Editor section,
some woman wrote in saying the photographer should have left his blind and helped the antelope!
:O) a proud papa posting pictures of his baby....
>> some woman wrote in saying the photographer should have left his blind and helped the antelope!
What??!? And penalize that hard-working crocodile?
Clearly that woman was a “species-ist”. Very common among liberals.
I’ve always said they are the most efficient killing machines on the planet. When you got a JRT AND a Great Dane, you have just about everything covered.
Well, in that case, my dream is a T-Rex that'd bring me back mountain lions in his jaws... and cows too. (Because cows are delicious.)

You’re going to be needing food and water bowls the size of swimming pools. Maybe an old-growth oak tree or two for chew toys.
And don’t even get me started about cleaning up after it...
Nah, I can let him eat a) all the people that complain about his droppings in the park, and b) the Codes officers that come around the house; that way it becomes self-sustaining. ;)
As for water, there's a pond nearby; which, come to think of it, could use something to kill off all the annoying geese.
Dang, this idea just keeps getting better and better. Imagine a world with no geese, or Codes officers.
Awesome dog.
