USDA Not Inspecting Downer Cattle

[rkaiser]

Talk about fooling people farmers_son.
I thougth you told us that BSE was quickly becoming a non issue. That we need not worry about BSE testing as it is all but behind us.

I think you are fooling someone farmers_son; and that someone is yourself.

Or are you finally swinging over to the testing side??????

lol I love how good ol' Willow tries to swing the eyes away from his precious US of A's errors. Whats that you and SH say about testing percentages on Ranchers? Perhaps maybe the prevalence of BSE within the good ol' US of A is considerably higher than Canada.

Blind patriotism isn't much different than idiocy.

USDA claims that these cattle passed USDA inspection once- and then went down later while awaiting slaughter- and that the USDA inspectors should have been informed and the cattle reinspected..

Ron-the interesting thing about most the news reports and articles today was that they continued to say that US beef is the safest in the world...

And when they were discussing BSE brought up the fact that while 15 BSE cattle had been found in North America- 13 of those were from CANADA and only 2 from the US...

BRING ON M-COOL!!!!!

It is to bad USDA turns a blind Eye to downer cows and just slaughters them. The workers problably runs the through during coffee breaks. This is why you don't have many BSE cows found. If you don't look for it you won't find it.Pushing things like MCOOL through lets me know why most of the world hates the US. Put a mcool sticker on your backpack and see how far you get outside you protectionist borders.I think of most AMERICANS as the trailer trash you see on the COPS tv show.

I hate to admit it ProFarmer but you are probably more right than wrong.We have become a nation of whiners and takers.I'm not proud of it but what do you expect when our government in Washington promotes the idea the whole world is out to get us.We have more than our share of kooks.....like my retarded cousin who blames Canucks for just being there.
