Guest guest Posted April 4, 2002 Report Share Posted April 4, 2002 I love dogs, but all other animals too , heres the story of present day Bessie Bessy What happened to you ? A few centuries ago Particularly under the Eastern skies She grazed peacefully under the sun. Frolicked in the village pond Walked 3 to 4 miles every day Had her fill of grasses Provided milk - nourishment For the ones that took care of her! Saved from slaughter Written into the scriptures Forbidden! Died natural death. After death she benefited the human race with leather & buttons Carrion usually feasted on the remains! Modern day Bessy's plight They don't teach compassion & humanity in MBA courses! Bessy has no feelings No needs Is inanimate Goal maximize $$$$'s Compassion be damned ! Confined to a stall In a barn away from sunlight Excreta -polluta stench unbearable Who cares! Concrete floors - goes lame So what- kill it! Tail flops around in the manure & urine into milking apparatus. Chop it off! Wait! too much effort No anesthesia just bind it Shuts off blood supply Painfully falls off! Hey day for flies!! No more prairie grass for Bessie Mix soya bran with Chicken manure!! Yes Chicken manure!! She's hungry will eat it Put lots & lots of Antibiotics Environment is unclean you know! We'll lose money if she gets sick! & Yes give it the bovine growth hormone! Jacks up milk supply unnaturally 100 pounds per day instead of 25 that God had planned! For the calf But humans, we can steal So what! The cows udders are not meant to process so much milk! Mastasis & other diseases set in Pus forms, very painful for the cow! Meets regulation - ship it! Who cares the milk spigots are open Money is rolling in!! That's all that matters! We have clout says Biznusfarmer! Worry not about clean air Act Putting up 4000 herd dairy farm! suckers in Peoria know not 19 acres of open cesspool- open air excreta- renamed " Lagoon " Flies & vermin enter local water table all kinds of pathogens ! So what, who cares Green backs come!! Come!! But yes!! Ah! There's more money yet to be made!! Bessy has a womb! Lined with more greenbacks Keep her constantly pregnant! Calf given 1 hour to three days to suckle!! Male calf separated veal crate, fed gruel, no iron, kept in the dark suffering from constant diarrhea grows sickly Eventually sees the sun en-route to the slaughterhouse Served as veal- connoisseurs enjoy the white delicacy With its aura of pain! Female into the main stream, dairy cow, produce 4 calves & the fifth year milk production declines- goes to Slaughter Bessy's fate Finite probability will get dismembered live or bled alive- scripted by elders Served as hamburger at the lunch counter! Bessy WHAT did you do? To deserve this?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
