The Lesser of Us

Picture this:

You buy a car or an electrical appliance and it comes with this warning label:

This product is perfectly safe- HOWEVER there is an outside chance it could- for no reason burst into flames and kill you. Buy it anyway though because the chances are very small it will happen TO YOU.

So now we must ask for the health and safety of anyone who eats beef: Have the actions of some people who like to torture animals on their way to the slaughter house and this mega industry endangered at least ONE of us?

Consider it:

They’ve slapped a warning label on every piece of beef processed at their plant and they tell YOU not to worry because it probably won’t effect YOU.

Oh sure, I’m so glad to know that – now I’m ready to go out and eat a big juicy steak or burger because:

what they did could have endangered my friends or family.

BUT NOT ME!

You jerks.

The video of how they treated those animals have put me off beef for the rest of my life- and this comment alone sealed the deal:

“On the one hand, I’m glad that the recall is taking place. On the other, it’s somewhat disturbing, given that obviously much of this food has already been eaten,” said Jean Halloran, director of food policy initiatives at Consumers Union. It’s really closing the barn door after the cows left.”

How funny.

This is funny too-it will be a cold day in Hell before I ever buy beef again and serve it to my friends and family.

Ha Ha ha.

God, I Have A Question

What do you think….

Is this a nice invitation ( option 1) or is it more like one of those notes

your teacher sent home to your Mom safety pinned to your jacket ( option 2 ) ?

I’m going for option 2
