Saw this article on the news this morning. 18000 cows lost due to the explosion. My heart is broken. Cows are such gentle animals. Damn sad...realy sad.

Sounds suspect. The manure pump overheated and ignited the methane gas!?!? And killed F'ing 18000 cows. Thats a shit load of cows. It is a shame so many animals died but this whole thing smells funny (pun intended). Maybe there is a more reasonable cause?

I find it hard to understand why so many perished. Also thinking that methane contributed. Cows fart a lot and if they are all under the same roof without proper ventilation then that is understandable.

Haven't you guys heard....cows are bad for the ozone/climate.     All part of the plan. 

 

Soylent Green baby....

Just keeping up with all of the other food manufacturing, and processing, facilities that have been been destroyed in very questionable circumstances over the past two years.

 

Somebody's funding this shit.

And a whole lot of other nefarious shit lately.

It's not just accidents and happenstance.

I am mot sure even soros has enough money to pay activists to go 80 miles from Lubbock to Sabatoge a building and kill 18,000 cows.

That number seems so suspect.

18,000? It would have to be a football stadium size building to hold that many.

And how much bigger could the herd be? There would have be to some freaking cows that survived.

I know methane is lethal, but damn.

That entire situation is MEGA suspicious.   Ive been around dairys & egg farms both that run honey pots daily for almost 40 years,  no way that killed damn near 18K milk cows.  Aint buying it.

There appears to be a lot of alien activity surrounding the farm. Not sayin', just sayin'.

How many cows can you fit under a 2 million square foot roof? Looks like this building was just built, could have been an electrical fire.

Ya, 18k is a lot. Insurance scam of some sort?

If a person had that kinda investment in milk and wanted to get out,  there just arent people lined up to fuck with holsteins twice a day,  365 days a year.  Dunno how many of that 18k were mommas hitting the barn twice a day,  but even if it was only 75% actually online,   that is a FUCKTON of work twice a day.    And speaking from personal experience,  the cost of feed commodities,  forage feed (in their case, alfalfa) and fertilizer,  you damn near cant make any blank ink anymore.   How else you gonna cash out of that situation without the usual liquidation/dispersal where everything is 10-cents on the dollar?  (ala John Mellancamp 'Scarecrow' song)

Will be interesting to see how this all unfolds.   That a serious dairy concern if they had 18K.  My wife is going to town today to get some groceries, gonna get her to take a snapshot of prices on the shelf today versus what Im sure is coming.

Do you remember the blizzard that hit that area in '15, took out something like 40,000 dairy cattle. Would be interesting to go back and see how that affected dairy prices at the grocery store.

Edit: Best I could find, looks like the cost of milk actually fell in the immediate aftermath and then rose back to pre-blizzard cost by the end of '16. Strange. The blizzard was in Dec '15 and killed an estimated 35,000 dairy cows.  https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/APU0000709112?data_tool=XGtable

Thats kinda the point of running a honey pot,  you dont hafta buy much fertilizer.   The people I know in both dairy and one really big egg farm,   their pastures are dark green from liquid shit being sprayed daily.  

But youre right on that point about potential boom.

Soros send a band of idiots anywhere in this country where he can make a mt out of a molehill,  and further his far left agenda of perverting our society, and destroying elections, rights, and freedoms.

 

Money is no object for that vile individual.

Looking at the size of the building there is no way you can fit 18,000 heads of cattle in there. That’s huge.

There has had to of been an explosion or the release of a gaseous chemical that perhaps poisoned the cattle.

I think I read most modern robotic dairy farms are now milking 3 times a day. Cows go from parlor to feed lot and eat and drink until they decide go back into barn to relieve pressure of a full udder like we go to take a dump.

It has come a long way from the double 4 herringbone parlor we had in sw Missouri where 60 cows was a good size operation.

For your next fake ass account you should call yourself,

Not you again.

 

Because that's what everyone here thinks when they see your prepubescent stupidity posted.

 

So why don't you just, 

"Leave us too" ??

Preferably being carried away in a "straightjacket".
