Wth were the states rights people thinking when they let that slide in?

Edit - orruar, cattle are destructive animals. Solar arrays are fragile. Yes they could fence it off. cattle near where I work get through/ past the fences / gates uncommonly. Also, when it's a calf that gets past the fence and can't figure out how to get back they get panicky. And when it's a bull that gets past it can be a major hassle getting him where he doesn't want to go.

I'm trying to picture a solar power array surrounded by a poorly constructed fence with cows just waiting to get in there to wreck shit. But I can't. Because I have a brain.

This is not about the government wanting to use 0.1% of the land and needing to keep the other 99.9% cow free in order to do so. It's all about the $$

Hey scarecrow, you didn't need to get defensive and be a dick. But since you did, and you don't appear to be familiar with cattle issues, since you have a brain:

This is the standard type of fence used with cattle. It it inexpensive, easy to install, easy to maintain. It also looks weak to the small cow brain. They tend to leave it alone. Except when they slip past it. When they are laying down and roll over( an uncommon occurrence, but it happens) they roll underneath. This is far more common in calves.

If you went with a more solid fence such as:

to a small cow brain it looks sturdy and they like to rub themselves on it. Because they have flea's and ticks and shit. And when you have a 2 ton cow rubbing up on your fence the fences don't last long.

Edit- got the pictures to work, hurray!

A side story: one night where I used to work some cattle got past a fence, actually they tore part of it down, but anyways... I had to get the cows back to the other side and fix the fence. My partner and I shooed 3 of the 4 back across fairly easy. But the fourth was being stubborn. Instead of running back through the fence it ran past the bad part, down the fence a hundred yards or so. We made a wide circle around it to the other side to work it back towards the bad part of the fence.

When we got about 20 yards from it, it squared up on us and started ripping it's feet in the dirt. And suddenly is dawned on me. This cow was a bull. Oh fuck. It made a few grunts. I happened to be carry a very bright flashlight at that point, but it was turned off. I turned it on and spooked that bull. It ran full speed at the fence and ran right through it. The fence was intact and the bull was on the other side. To this day I don't understand how that worked.

I stuck around for about a half hour listening to that bull howl. I like to think it took a barb to the nuts. The bastard.

Now you're probably thinking, "what kind of idiot mistakes a bull for a cow? Bulls have horns!" well, this breed of bull didn't have horns. And since it was like 2 am I wasn't checking these cows out for nut sacks in the dark.

I'm picturing the entire state of Texas as nothing but a wasteland of cow trampled skyscrapers. I think we have a Godzilla spinoff in the works here.

Here's some real truth, for those of you who still believe everything the Mainstream Media News channels tell you, are nothing but facts. Like how they portrayed Clive Bundy as a racist bigot, when in fact he's the complete opposite. Don't take my words for it, watch the unedited video and compare it to the MSM/NYT version, I've posted both links here:

Quote:
Watch Bundy explain how we need to keep things from going backwards for blacks, and how the Federal government has created a neo-slave class via entitlement dependency that is so bad it is arguably worse than plantation slavery was. It is 100% clear that Cliven Bundy is not saying that blacks should be slaves picking cotton, but that the Federal government has created conditions for them so terrible, that their current situation may actually be worse. (If you are person of low intelligence, the fact that that is his point might be too hard for you to understand.) And he’s not blaming blacks for the issues of abortions, and crime and broken families, he’s blaming the Feds. This is the exact opposite of a racist, this is an advocate for the welfare and best interests of blacks. And just as importantly, you’ll at the end of the video he gives passionate praise and defense of hispanic illegal aliens, lauding them for “better family structures than most white peoples’” Racist? Why is he praising Mexicans as better than whites, if he’s some sort of white supremacist racist?
Cliven Bundy (Full) Controversial Remarks April 19, 2014 - complete version, prior to being edited by the MSM/NYT

VIDEO: Cliven Bundy's Racist Remarks - what they keep spinning on TV news chans

I'm not taking sides here, just exposing them liars, for who they really are!

Maybe you should actually listen to the words he uses to describe them as "people" and "brothers," as opposed to actual racial slurs he would have used, if he really was a racist.

anyone who says they "know something about the negro" is a racist.

my great grandmother said oriental and colored. and she was really nice. she was also italian and racist but still nice.

my grand parents call mlk day american ****** day. they are also fairly nice and harmless.

no offense ... but he's an old racist piece of shit, the very definition of racist by the way he generalizes
