Eco Terrorits -- we got hit

So yesterday we found two dead goats, in our winter goat paddock.  As a matter of course we have videos of the area to ensure that our goats are ok, but late yesterday afternoon, two young men and a woman parked their car near our farm buildings and decided to liberate our goats, they opened the gate and tried to encourage them to leave and I assume to be free (on the road...).  

Farm animals are not very trusting of humans, cannot say that I blame them, but these were all nanny goats and milk producers so they have a rather good life...So when the goats refused to leave they started kicking them to encourage them (we have it all on video).  My farm manager was alerted almost immediately by the noise and chassed these idiots away.  When she went back to the pasture she found two dead goats.   Goats are sensitive to aggressive behaviour and these were two of our oldest nanny goats (part of our original flock).  They could have lived another 3/4 years, easily.  The entire flock was agitated the entire night, and milk production was much lower than usual.    

So last night, after reviewing the video, Jennifer called the police and gave them the car plate number for this idiot.  They called Jennifer back this afternoon to give us the news, that one of the perpetrators had been arrested, they found literature for the Animal Liberation Front.  Considering that the only thing they managed to do was kill two goats...really a disaster.  

One of the men (actually almost still a boy, he just turned 18) was apparently arrested and charged this morning.  We had videos that showed their face and their car plates... These cretins could really have been hurt if instead of running into the nanny's paddock they had run into the bucks' paddock.  That lot can be bloody aggressive, even I approach them with caution.

The police officer thought they were wannabes rather than the real thing.  Apparently, the police also got other calls about vandals that had damaged farm gates, but it's unknown if it was the same bunch.  

Next project; building a farm gate...

The end of Tesla?

 it takes a special kind of idiot, to think that he can antagonize his entire customer base, and think that it will not impact his business. When Elon Musk went to work for Donald Trump, and created the doge department, he antagonized every liberal, and these people represent 90% of his client base.That’s not a brilliant move. Now Elon Musk is worth hundreds of billions of dollar, so he shouldn’t care a great deal, however, he needs to care because of several other issues. The cyber truck has been a disaster, most have had to be recalled because of defective glue, it’s not a truck, it’s not a car, it’s noisy, relatively uncomfortable, but great as a development platform. What Tesla has learned in making car manufacturing more seamless is truly amazing. The problem was that Elon Musk was so pissed with the Democrats, and with Joe Biden, in particular because of some slight, which were just plain stupid too. By the way, that he decided to support with hundreds of millions of dollar, ...

Donald Trump‘s bad bargain

 The entire of 2023 and 2024 when Donald Trump was running for the White House, his mantra was no war, that the Ukraine conflict would be resolved in a day, and that he would do everything not to involve America and war. How the world has changed! He finds himself facing three conflicts; Ukraine, still going on almost 5 months after he became president. Gaza, an unspeakable crime against humanity, is obviously going to go all the way to its bitter end. And finally, Israel’s attack against Iran. It’s important to note, that Benjamin Netanyahu first indicated at the United nation that the Iranian were 3 to 5 years away from having the nuclear bomb. He made that statement in 1995. Therefore, no one is surprised that he uses the same two lines every so often. It’s entirely possible, that 30 years after he first announced it, that Iran has finally developed the bomb. It’s also remarkable that Iran, local power has been destroyed, from Yemen, to Syria, via Lebanon and Gaza to small exten...

TACO again, but worst!

 Donald Trump got the rare earth metals that he had thrown away on April 2, liberation day as he called it. What did the Chinese get in exchange? The whole deal, is on the wrap right now. But let’s be clear. It’s the Chinese that have the upper hand.Some of the materials made by the Chinese, are simply unavailable anywhere else. suspicions are that the Chinese got the high-end chips that they lost under Biden. Tariffs will probably return to the level of April 1, and in the end Donald and his friends got nothing for it. It gets worse, Chinese exports to United States are down 40%. The Chinese have found new markets, I probably never gonna buy American grain again. Once again, Donald Trump proved he’s a great negotiator. He got absolutely nothing for his Showmanship. He told the world, that everyone would come and kiss his ass, instead they’re laughing At him. There’s no joke about Donald Trump, a 25 and inherited a huge fortune and proceeded to make it a small one. Bottom line, the...
