Making the Planet Fit for Food: Climate Protesters Attack Vermont's Dairy Farms
americanthinker.com ^ | 1/15/2020 | John Klar

The Vermont Governor’s annual “State of the State” address was interrupted this year by a loud group of protesters, who refused to stop screaming bizarre slogans until the Vermont State House session was closed so they could be physically escorted from the building. Amidst their shouts of “I’m afraid I’m going to die!” and “Climate justice is migrant justice!,” were repeated condemnations of Vermont’s “dairy industry.” This vague “industry” boogeyman is actually nonexistent in Vermont. The state’s dairy farms have steadily declined, and even its largest operations are puny in contrast to the mega-dairies elsewhere.

Well, IF they really cared, they'd go on hunger strikes until the dairy farms close down. :-)

And if they REALLY cared about “climate change”, they could reduce their OWN “carbon footprint” by duct taping their mouths and noses shut for one little, itty-bitty hour.

Sacrifice one measly of breathing for the Planet. It’s not too much to ask, is it, Lefties?

Bonus - It’ll also help reduce the “overpopulation crisis”...

“Well, IF they really cared, they’d go on hunger strikes until the dairy farms close down”. :-)

That’s a winner and funny. It’s also very true. If they are that adamant in their cause, they should chain themselves to trees and stick with it.

“IF they really cared”

If they really cared they would come to the CA Central Valley and close the mega dairies here. Evening milkings can be over 2,000 cows spread across 10 milking barns.

Traditional family dairies with 100-200 producing cows struggle against such competition.

“These people are truly insane!...”

They’re idle and spoiled souls, that got blue ribbons for just showing up, with no real, true self-esteem, searching frantically for their personal worth in the world.

Adult children, with adult bodies housing adolescent intellects, stuck at a mental age of 13 years old. Emotional, illogical, prideful, mean.

Treat them as you would a child having a public temper tantrum over not getting the candy.

Soylent Green is People!

Just watched that two nights ago- still a cool movie- but hated the idiotic climate change propaganda theme of it
