the shit is getting deep here in the barnyard. I realize it's been nearly a month since I've blogged, so let me try to fill in the blanks on what I've been doing before we get down to business. I'll try to keep it short and sweet.
County Fair, friends, fun, debauchery, goat herding and steer jocking, LLC's, resignations, golf, Heidi braids, anticipation, State Fair, Bud tent, trophies, ribbons, more debauchery and blisters. You see why shit has been backing up?
OK, so how now Butter Cow? How about a giant F-U Animal Liberation Organization or whoever the hell you are...talk about the back firing of a stunt. You vandalize a piece of art work that has been the symbol of the state fair since 1911 and hope to make a point. Well, point made...your point is you're a bunch of junior high fucktards. The fair had the mess cleaned up and re-opened before your e-mail and photo even reached the DM Register. The lines to see the cow are longer than ever before, the Blue Ribbon Foundation is selling "Butter Cow Security" t-shirts by the assload and your little group and its anti-meat agenda is losing credibility faster than Paula Deen lost endorsement deals.
Now, I know I've said this before but the true fucktards (sorry, its one of my favorite words) of society live on Facebook comment pages. Search WHO-TV, KCCI, or the Register's Facebook pages for their coverage of the Butter Cow and read some of the comments coming from the anti-ag establishment. They are so misinformed and uneducated its laughable. Animal abuse or cruelty is not a good thing. It's something I and 99.9% of the agriculture community abhor and fight against. Stupidity is not a good thing either and for someone to say that, and I quote, "Dairy cows are repeatedly raped before their babies are stolen from their chest and their breast milk is stolen for selfish human consumption," is the epitome of stupid.
There are so many errors in this statement that I shall start with the obvious ones. First off, the chest of a cow is between her front legs, an area that calves seldom hang out in. Second, Cows don't have breasts, they have udders, which are found between their back legs. Next issue, repeatedly raped....how do you even approach this one...Yes, gangs of Holstein bulls run rampant gang raping the cows in their herds. Cows come into heat or ovulate just like other mammals, the bulls know this and do their business. (Here's a shocker...the cows even 'stand' and take it, because its nature people.) The cow then gestates, has her baby roughly nine months later. Lather, rinse, repeat. Its what ALL animals do...even the ones we don't eat. In fact, I used to have a mama cat who would eat her own babies after having them because she wanted to come back into heat sooner....(hence we called her a whore cat, but that's another story for another day.) Now for my last point of contention..breast milk is stolen, I already covered the breast part, but for the stealing of the milk issue...how many nursing mothers have ever gone too long without nursing or pumping? How many of you have had mastitis? Milk cows produce FAR more milk than a calf could ever drink and if they are not milked it can be excruciatingly painful for them. But then you anti-meat people like that don't you? You are the same ones that think its bad to give animals medicine and antibiotics when they are sick or hurting. (Another topic for another day.)
If you don't want to eat meat, or meat by-products, for whatever reason, that is your business. It's something I don't understand and don't agree with, but we can agree to disagree, if you respect my views and my livelihood, I can respect yours. HOWEVER, I would encourage you, before spouting off nonsense like I quoted above, you actually spend time with a livestock producer. Go visit a cattle farm, or a hog operation, or a dairy farm, and see what actually happens there, instead of just reading something on the internet....pulling a prank at the great state fair to get attention will never garner respect. It only reiterates what fools you truly are.
