Anyone else catch this release

It pertains to everything in life in this country, if you don't like my truck making smoke, tough #### not my problem. You don't like me not having health insurance, you #### not my problem or your business. You don't like me not having anything more than an 8th grade education, tough #### not my problem or any of your business. Until it hurts you, physically, it's none of your ####### business what the hell I do. If you can't drive 5 hours without a 6 hour nap go right the hell ahead, if you can drive 72 years with no sleep without hurting or killing somebody go right the hell ahead.

 

If you’re as good at betting as you are at debating then I would stay far far away from Vegas.

 

I don’t know how to say this so you’ll understand it. 90% of slaughter cattle is short haul, so get the long distance kill cow stuff out of your head. Calves have to move from ranch to feedlot, which is where the long distance stuff comes in. Most ranchers retain ownership of their calves until the feedlot sells them to a packing plant. Which is why the big packers wouldn’t eat the excess freight charges, the rancher would. So you need to look at where the calves come from and where they get fed at. Not many feedlots in FL, but there are a lot of cattle, this a lot of calves that have to go somewhere. Same with CA. That’s why calves move to the midwest, it’s cheaper to take the calves to the feed than it is to take the feed to the cattle. You have no knowledge of how things work yet you keep acting like you have the answers.

 

So now you don't think I'm good at debating, that's fine I'm not debating.

 

We run a few cows. We're not a huge operation, just a family outfit. We run it like a business because it is a business. Most ranchers and farmers I know do exactly the same thing. If we didn't run it as a business, with everything that entails, we'd fail.

I'm not going to take sides on the issues in this thread but when people who know absolutely nothing about agriculture start throwing false information and bad ideas around I have to speak up.

And remember, don't criticise farmers with your mouth full.

 

You know, in the past when people called you a racist towards Outlaw owner operators, I defended you. When you posted photoshopped pics of you with Hillary Clinton in an embrace, I defended you. When people complained your old Chevy truck was killing the environment, well I didn’t really care about that. I mean, big deal right?

However, when you start sullying Farmer Todd’s good name and reputation, that’s where I draw the line. Todd doesn’t care about profit as much as he cares about beef staying local. Todd is a true American.

 

But all my points today on this issue was spot on and nobody could dispute them because they were all bonafide points.

America the free and the Revolutionary War posts were just silly.

Saying I know nothing doesn’t mean my points were wrong.

 

Maybe so. But if I had an idea and a whole lot of people, some of whom don't even like each other all told me I was wrong...I think I'd listen. And maybe I'd think about my ideas.

Or, then again, there are people on here who like to argue just for the sake of argument. They prefer discord to agreement. They also like the attention they get.
They're the human equivilant of navel lint.

 

You're trying to tell people how to do something they know how to do safely when you wouldn't have the first idea how to start. Yes, if you know nothing about what you're talking about makes you wrong 99.99% of the time, and this isn't the exception to the rule.

 

I just wanted someone to point out where I was wrong....,

And I do own a tractor and loader, disc, plow, rake, grader blade and bush hog .
Plus I’ve killed and butchered plenty of deer and hogs in my life.

So maybe this CITY BOY knows a little....,
