The Killing Fields

killer tractorIowa - How long has American corn been subjugated to death row? It’s safe to say that corn on the American continent has fallen prey to human brutality since the early inhabitants began imprisoning maize.

In 2002, almost 10 billion bushels of corn were grown on farms in the USA. Do you know how many innocent ears were slaughtered as a result?

A lot.

Sure, you may be saying to yourself “so what” (you callous pig), but stop for a moment and think about just one of those ears of corn. Put yourself on it’s stalk, so to speak, and imagine what it would be like to be ripped from your home, stripped, maybe shaved, even creamed, and ultimately eaten.

Yes, tragedy happens every day in rural America. More killing takes place on the Great Plains than all of the metro areas combined. Billions are tortured and killed every year. If you love freedom and mercy please, PLEASE stop eating vegetables.

This carrot is seen skinned alive, bleeding over a kitchen sink. This type of action MUST STOP!! How can the world say it is civilized when such brutality still exists everywhere?

Vegetable Cruelty Protest

Vegetable Cruelty ProtestIsrael - July 1, 2003 marked an historic day throughout the world. Activists from the Vegetable Rights Militant Movement (VRMM) let their voices be heard, demanding that cruelty to vegetables cease. The world-wide demonstration saw over two million participants in 76 countries. These millions of people are tired of the inhumane manner in which fruits, vegetables, and all plant life are treated.

Protestors carried signs, shouted angry words, made menacing faces, and otherwise acted unruly. “Civil disobedience is the least we can do for our brothers of so-called ‘lessor species’,” said Harlan Shawberry.

Most of the protestors were peaceful, with the exception of a few young men and women in Seattle who decided to spray paint the words “we kill and torture vegetables” on the wall of a local Subway Sandwich.

Without a doubt, this was the largest vegetable rights rally in modern history. “We are very pleased with the international support shown by all members of the VRMM today,” stated Vegetable Rights Militant Movement spokesperson Samantha Illian. “Politicians argue that people would die if laws were passed that prevented the killing of fruits and vegetables but we believe that is just anti-flora policy with no evidence to support the claims.”

No one was available for comment from the United States Department of Agriculture.

A plug for a good site

This is a bit off the beaten path for us but if you’re looking to refinance or buy a new home you should check out this website for loan officers.  There’s a directory of mortgage people all over the U.S. and there’s also a forum so you can ask questions.  Most of the resident loan officers are pretty friendly and will answer your questions quickly.

Anyway, enjoy!

This is the saddest form of apple cruelty that my friend and I have encountered. It was so bad that the juices were everywhere!
