billvon 3,077 #28 August 14, 2003 >really? that seems kinda cruel and wouldnt it hurt the poor goat? why >would anyone want to do this?? No more cruel than taking a dog skydiving or juggling ferrets (which Winsor did in tent 4 this year; they seemed to like it.) No more cruel than walking a dog who is choking himself trying to lunge at cats. No more cruel than putting a bit on a horse, or putting him in a trailer.

happythoughts 0 #36 August 14, 2003 QuoteDo you mind letting the goat decide if it's happy or not? Bwaaahaaa Perhaps the motorcycle ride is part of its search for happiness. A Zen monk wondering the world. It could be saying "I am the Goat-King and your are my goat-bitch. Take me to the clover field..." The goat does have that sly grin, doesn't it?

rehmwa 2 #37 August 14, 2003 It's time to end the slavery of man to goat. Is free transportation for goats a right, or just a poorly planned entitlement that got out of control during the Clinton presidency? Rise up oppressed humans and throw off the yoke of slavery forced on us by our goat masters! That poor man - it looks like it hurts. Someone should buy him a present. ...

tbrown 26 #38 August 14, 2003 Quotenot a vegetarian here, i just hate the thought of killing animals, at any cost. did anyone see road rules the other night when they had to kill that poor little chicken? Do you think meat grows in a plastic bag ? One of the best things I ever did, when I was 16, was to help a family slaughter a pig. After that I've always known where meat comes from. Who knows, maybe turnips suffer when they're ripped from the ground, we still gotta eat. Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redtwiga 0 #40 August 14, 2003 I gotta say this is one of the funnier and more ridiculous threads I've read. I am vegetarian, non-judgemental, I like to think. WHAT ARE YOU ALL TALKING ABOUT?? We completely don't know the context of this picture. The goat could be the dude's bitch, the dude could be the goat's bitch, one could be the other's source of dinner or milk, or gift for the kids! Dude could be rescuing goatie from a slaughterhouse. Who knows? Who cares? Great pics!! I like the idea of TMG's. Goats are pretty calm and could probably talk down that terrified S/L student pretty well, I'd think. There must be some sort of glove a rigger could come up with to fit over the hoof that would allow them to grab hackeys and handles... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An obvious example - chickens. Look at their feet. Little roots. One day the farmer was coming down the row and they realized it was harvest time. They started struggling at their roots and... freedom. Their feet/legs came loose from the soil and they sprinted. The chicken issue has been confusing the vegetarians ever since.

And different flavors of ice cream. And steering wheels and long words and how I should do my hair and whether I should get my breasts enbiggened.
