How to get involved with animals?

<p>What, an ass?</p>

<p>More like giving a “From my cold dead hands!” pro-gun NRA rally in Littleton right after the Columbine shooting and refusing to move it and mocking the people who asked them not to come.</p>

<p>Don’t trust everything you see in a film. Especially if it’s a documentary.</p>

<p>[This[/url</a>] is a good read. Though I can’t vouch for it’s accuracy, it appears to be well sourced. The “2. NRA and the Reaction To Tragedy” is the bit we’re interested in.</p>

<p>[url=&lt;a href=“http://www.hardylaw.net/Bowlingtranscript.html]This”&gt;http://www.hardylaw.net/Bowlingtranscript.html]This</a> comparison](<a href=“http://www.hardylaw.net/Truth_About_Bowling.html]This[/url”>http://www.hardylaw.net/Truth_About_Bowling.html) between the movie version of the speech and the real one is also interesting and far easier to verify.</p>

<p>He still said the words, he still didn’t have to give that speech. And I suppose his interview with Moore was fake, too?</p>

<p>Which words? “From my cold dead hands”? That was from an entirely different speech.</p>

<p>"And I suppose his interview with Moore was fake, too? "
Pretty much, yeah. Look at “C. Heston Interview.”</p>

<p>Those points don’t really change things.</p>

<p>And I liked the damn cartoon.</p>

<p>All I got from this thread is that BillyMc probably has no game and is awkward around the biddies.</p>

<p>by biddies, do you mean geese?</p>

<p>

<p>Not really into that. But if it’s your thing, good for you, I won’t judge.</p>

<p>It’s not about women, it’s about chickens.</p>

<p>i.e. BillyMc opposes bestiality cause he can’t get with a chicken.</p>

<p>I’m very awkward around cleaning ladies. I’m always trying to get out of their way. :/</p>

<p>I find it odd that I cannot recall ever meeting a live chicken.</p>

<p>I met a live chicken once. It was dead shortly afterwards. This caused me to understand the origin of the phrase “running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off”.</p>

<p>Yay for mutilating animals!</p>

<p>I wonder how much pain he felt.</p>

<p>So I’m largely in agreement with Xenophane, having read this thread…</p>

<p>With regards to the absence of live chickens: I think that proves how disconnected we are from the animals we eat. The most recent chicken I’ve seen was probably the one from Cow And Chicken. Things are changing though. I think thinking of our relationship with food as evolving and tending towards an equilibrium is useful. We were once (centuries ago) very close to the food we ate (we being humans). When meat started being mass produced at first I think nobody really knew what was going on probably - no one had a way of imagining how it all worked. People just assumed that the animals were being raised and slaughtered, and the crops grown, the same way they used to do both. </p>

<p>But now with the media and everything people are starting to realize (and thus care about) how our food is processed. And of course there’s lots of other factors going into it, too, but now we’re seeing a shift back towards personal gardens, and so on.</p>

<p>

this sounds very honest.</p>

<p>Hm well I only recently started to get a clearer sense of you. That statement aligned with my conception of you quite well. Anyways, I am also slightly uneasy around cleaning ladies at hotels. My mom always wants them to make our beds and everything, I always don’t. I know it’s a service of the hotel, but it’s my feeling that the people that are doing the service aren’t getting as much as they should in return. On the other hand, cleaning ladies are probably not (or at least I hope not) more unhappy than the rest of us. But still, their existence seems sad, part of which is do the fact that their job seems to me so unbearable. I despise cleaning my own things enough as it is.</p>

<p>edit: going to clarify something - what I mean is I am seeing richer consistencies is you’re posts.</p>

Way to screw the pooch.</p>
