Bill to end livestock "abuse".........

I wasn't blaming anybody for anything. Just found the observation rather interesting.

Sorry if I sounded like I was blaming you for something, I was just making a point that farm animals are food, mostly the comment was in jest

Just to note...The US DOJ states that over 61% of all firearms related deaths are suicides, so that drastically reduces the number of deaths by firearms that are crimes, I believe that if a person wants to commit suicide they have a right to decide the method to do it.

It is ironic and a bit of hypocrisy that many of the same states that enact right to die laws use suicides committed with firearms to justify more stringent firearms laws.

One day I asked the 8th grade students in my classroom, where do hamburgers come from? Their reply, Publix, the Florida grocery store chain. None of them knew that hamburgers come from cows. There are a lot of people that do not have a clue in life.

Electric comes out of the wall, according to the same class.

I remember one guy telling me once that his adult daughter never realized that hot water came out of the hot water tank in the basement!

I told a girlfriend I had (long, long time ago) that chocolate milk came from black cows. She had to think about that one for awhile.

if you get 100 people to chant '4 + 5 =10' for 22 minutes, take a coffee break, then ask then real quick, 'what's 4+5'...most will say and BELIEVE it's ten......

I actually saw someone once (college student) argue "Why would you kill a cow for your meat, just buy it from the grocery store"

It was a completely serious comment.

^ This!

I personally knew 6 people who committed suicide - all but one used a firearm. All were suffering terribly, and chose to end the pain because there was no hope, only suffer till you die. Rather than go to a state that allows "doctor-assisted suicide" they chose a bullet. A lot quicker and a lot cheaper.

In our current society suicide is regarded as some kind of mental illness that needs to be cured. Lest we forget - some other societies regard suicide as an honorable way out.

"Brisket", "Ribeye", "Ground Beef" seem to work...

Buddy in school had two pigs. One was named "Pork". The other was named beans

I've had an awkward comment about where chocolate milk came from as well. That person lived up to the term "educated idiot".

We have allowed our education system to fail to educate our children to think for themselves. Now, the education system is brain washing our children from day one in schools, to think only like a liberal thinks.

We're doomed.

My wife was telling a friend at a pot luck how she made the ice cream. I hear one teenager in line tell another, "Don't eat any of that ice cream. It's made from cow's milk." Wife had described how she got the mike from a local dairy.
