Thanks @ChapoKrautHaus@hexbear.net for finding this and posting it in the news bulletin, I felt it needed its own post.
The original title of this article is way too passive voice for my taste but the article itself is pretty good.
I wish all ranchers a v ery good get in the pit
American rancher kulsks literally planting landmines so they don’t have to spend slightly more money on more appropriate methods to keep coyotes at bay is quite the headline.
Wow, the linked fact vs. fiction document made by the sheep farmers is something else.
FICTION: planting cyanide landmines is dangerous
FACT: nuh uh, no one has died yet1 and we put out warning signs2 and we filled out all the right paperwork anyway
- People have died already
- No they don’t
This must be those WMDs they were so obsessed with in the 2000s
I thought I already knew about most of the US’ scumbaggery. Then you have to go and show me this. Sometimes I wonder if American leadership wakes up in the morning and says “What’s the most fucked up thing I can do today is?”
