Grass fed beef does accrue more deaths than the flies on its arse, and you know it because you've been shown the evidence of the collateral deaths associated with grass fed beef many times now. Why don't you tell the truth, Harrison? To recap; [The Animal Damage Control (ADC) program is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture under its Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). One of ADC's biggest and most controversial activities is killing coyotes and other predators, primarily to protect western livestock. Under pressure from ranchers, the U.S. government exterminates tens of thousands of predator and "nuisance" animals each year. In 1989, a partial list of animals killed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal Damage Control Program included 86,502 coyotes, 7,158 foxes, 236 black bears, 1,220 bobcats, and 80 wolves. In 1988, 4.6 million birds, 9,000 beavers, 76,000 coyotes, 5,000 raccoons, 300 black bears, and 200 mountain lions, among others, were killed. Some 400 pet dogs and 100 cats were also inadvertently killed. Extermination methods used include poisoning, shooting, gassing, and burning animals in their dens.] http://www.ti.org/adcreport.html Also, though a customer might switch to grass fed beef on the understanding that he would be reducing the collateral deaths associated with his food, evidence from U.S.D.A shows that "an animal could be fed 85% grain for 60 days and still qualify under these guidelines" as grass fed beef. That being so, grass fed beef accrues collateral death from the feed grown to feed them, just like any other steer in the feedlot. [Grass Fed Claims; This would appear to be the most commented upon topic in this docket. We will not belabor all the points of concern which are addressed but will focus on the areas of concern to our cooperative of growers. While Grain Fed addressed specifically what the method IS, Grass Fed seems to try to define what it IS NOT. This dichotomy is confusing. We feel that you need to define both as what they ARE since that is what is motivating the consumer. While the intent of this language would suggest that Grass Fed animals are not Grain Finished, especially in Feedlots, the language as written is not at all clear to that end. In fact by allowing 80% of consumed energy to be concentrated at the finishing stage, our data suggests that beef animals could be fed 50% forage /50% grain for 70 days at finishing. Likewise an animal could be fed 85% grain for 60 days and still qualify under these guidelines. This is absolutely not in line with consumer expectations as is borne out in the website comments.] http://www.ams.usda.gov/lsg/stand/comments/mc213.pdf Also, farmers lie to their customers who ask after their product. Farmers tell them their beef is grass fed but finishes his animals in feedlots on grains far away. [Some meat producers use "grass-fed" to describe animals that are raised in pens on industrial feed, including corn, and finished on rations of grass in feedlots far from home. A similar confusion still surrounds "free-range," which can refer to animals that roam where they please or to animals kept in barns and allowed to range in circumscribed yards. No one regulates the use of these terms, and given how many years it took to achieve a national definition of "organic," it may be a long time before anyone does.] http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/2003/05/kummer.htm You've been shown this material which shows the collateral deaths associated with grass fed beef many times now, so why do you keep lying by claiming it doesn't accrue them? |

Your typical spew below in no way effects the beef I eat. Besides, if you want to talk about animal control, I'll see a couple hundred thousand coyotes out west and see you multiple millions of birds killed for your food crops. You've lost, again twits, but then, that's not a new experience for you, hypocrite. > [The Animal Damage Control (ADC) program > is administered by the U.S. Department of > Agriculture under its Animal and Plant Health > Inspection Service (APHIS).

I doubt that that is true, but, nevertheless, the grass fed beef you claim to eat does accrue collateral deaths. It doesn't slaughter, package and distribute itself to its consumer without causing those collateral deaths you deny exist. Can you see your hypocisy yet? While trying to attack vegan for the collateral deaths associated with their diets, you deny the deaths associated with yours. >Now, as to millions upon millions of birds for crops....

There certainly is, Etter, because the material I've provided from U.S.D.A. shows that, contrary to your statements; "The production of the beef I eat causes no CDs." "The production of my beef promotes no CDs. Period." Rick Etter 2003-11-15 the production of grass fed beef does accrue them. You either have to admit grass fed beef accrues collateral deaths or refute the evidence from U.S.D.A. Take your pick, but my guess is that you'll do neither. |

Some types of meat involve fewer animal deaths than some types of vegetable products. You "ARAs" hate to see it pointed out, meaning that it must be a good thing to point out. The truth is not the friend of "AR" imo, and that impression is reinforced every time I see one of you object to seeing certain facts pointed out. >>>>I would have no problem finding grass raised >>>>beef that did not involve the killing of predators. >>> >>>The collateral deaths associated with grass fed beef include >>>more than just their natural predators.

Or the scientific references about the cause of the Sahara Desert? Science sir. Or http://www.wildflowers-and-weeds.com/sahara.htm has many excellent university and main stream references. http://www.nationalgeographic.com/wi...pa/pa1327.html Or is National Geographic a "foolish, religious" press? It's basic archaeologic knowledge the sahara was a fertile growing area. Do you deny that? |

And then what? To begin with, it's hard to believe that anyone but a person with a severe mental handicap is too stupid to understand that plowing and harrowing a field, then running the equipment over it to plant seed, then flooding the area, then treating it with *icides, later draining it, then running more equipment over it to remove what has become food and shelter for what animals survive, causes the deaths of more animals than cattle do by eating grass. But, let us consider that maybe you really are too stupid to understand how that could be. If you really are so incredibly stupid as to not be able to understand something that simple, then how could anyone explain it in a way that would make you capable of understanding? If someone said: The front wheels of the tractor come first. Carrying as much weight as they do, animals who are run over by them are often crushed and killed. After the front wheels come the rear wheels, which are larger and will crush more animals than the front. After the rear wheels comes the plow, which has steel blades that go into the ground and kill animals they come in contact with, and turn the ground upside down exposing some animals who are killed by predators. Later comes the harrow.... Meanwhile cattle in another field eat grass, and kill almost no animals at all. But if you're too stupid to understand then having it explained isn't going to make you capable of understanding. Now let us consider that maybe you really are *not* too stupid to understand it, which is more likely the case. If you really are not so incredibly stupid, that means that you do understand it but want to pretend that you don't. So we are left to wonder why you cling to lies as is often/usually the case with veg*ns, because you guys never will explain why you do it. |
