An animal welfare group said Tuesday that a graphic video it secretly recorded shows workers at a dairy farm beating cows with crowbars, stabbing them with pitchforks and punching them in their heads.

The video was recorded in an undercover investigation at Conklin Dairy Farms Inc., said Mercy For Animals, a not-for-profit group that publicizes what it calls cruel practices in the dairy, meat and egg industries and promotes a vegan diet.

And we will get our own inbred morons to excuse the behavior because that animal rights group might have concoted the video. Despite the evidence staring them right in the face, of course.

BTW, I just don't get the vegan diet. Have you ever tried to eat a vega? they taste really bad.

They're a bit...chewy.

Service to God's servants doesn't mean you lose a sense of discrimination. You are adolescent, vacuous, and insincere, as shown by your responses. You didn't address anything I said in post 201, and simply said I'm missing my brain. Pathetic.

And I truly don't know what you are talking about, regarding the Bible. Are you saying God is into animal cruelty?

Doesn’t matter. Either way, the guy abusing that animal is sick, whether he’s an environut staging it or is a sadistic animal torturer who loves steak. The guy is sick.

I just want to find somebody who says that kicking a cow in the head is an acceptable way to get her to stand up.

A handful of grain in a bucket works for me.

>Union County Sheriff Rocky Nelson announced Wednesday afternoon that 25-year-old Billy Joe Gregg of Delaware County was arrested and charged with 12 counts of cruelty to animals, a second degree misdemeanor.<

Excellent. Now, if only the judge could forbid him from even owning or caring for as much as a goldfish ever again.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the mercy for animals people were behind the mistreatment themselves — as a cynical stunt to further their cause (”veganism”).

Hey, where ya' been, buddy?

I would bet anything that those abusing the cows in the video are members of the animal rights group.

That makes no sense. -- the video would show that and be self-discrediting.

Assuming the animal rights activists staged the abuse (and I think they did), do you think they'd be advertising that the video is staged? As someone else pointed out, the camera was following the guy around... which is hardly undercover, and highly suggestive of the staged nature of the video. I wonder what will come out when that guy arrested for the abuse is interviewed... I'd bet that either he was paid to abuse those cows, or he's a member of the animal rights organization.

Right. So help me follow you . . . the principal actor in the conspiracy will be found to be part of the conspiracy.

I did, in post #60.

You replied with a strawman.

No, it doesn’t work that way. Please explain what abortion has to do with this story, apart from your fervent wish that the members of this organization are pro-abortion. After that, explain to me how kicking a cow in the head has to do with any of it.

Doubling down on your strawman with further unfounded ad hominem won't save your argument.

Again, read post #60.

I responded to your post #60. Pretending to ignore it doesn’t work, sorry.

Oh, and where's the ad hominem? I don't see it.

Your response(s) so far have been ad hominem and strawmen.

The ad hominem was in post #256 where you made reference to "my fervent wish".
