Frankly Pale, IMHO if you had some kids or grandkids in your life,
you might be less obsessed with the live trade. You only see black
and white, I see many shades of grey.

There are many serious animal welfare issues around. Bear bile farms
in China, dolphin slaughter in Japan, battery chooks, sows in sow
stalls for most of their lives. Yet most of you focus 90% of
your time on the sheep live trade. That makes no sense to me.

Sheep spend most of their lives free range. Every day or two I go
around my flock. They have feed up to their bellies, they snooze
under shady trees, etc.etc. Yup, the moms have babies and clearly
enjoy motherhood and fuss over them. Old George the chief ram,
looks over his little harem and is content with the world.

Why should these animals not have a life in the first place?

Fact is, only so many can live on their land, or they would run
out of food and starve. I make sure that doesent happen, for
nature can be very cruel.

So I look at the big picture. These animals have happy lives and
enjoy their lives. Death awaits all of us. Hopefully when I die,
it will all happen in a few minutes, not days or weeks, as we humans
are forced to endure.

Your total focus is if it takes 1 second or 10 seconds. I think
you are missing the big picture here.

QLD is number one cattle exporter.

Australia sends Horses, cattle, dogs, sheep, deer, goats, cammels rabbits, pigs.

Australia`s the talk of the world because of its cruelty.


Government leaders who "ignore the public' and allow themselves to be BROUGHT by donations and who are IN BED with this CRUEL Industry for votes want jailing for life.

This needs to be taken with a ship load of lawyers to the UN.

Wer`e "supposed" to be a Christian country and the Churches influence is great.

Why do you think Howard was running around to his strange little cult. ?

SHAME ON CHURCH LEADERS.

I`m "embarresed" to say I voted for Howard . He made changes three weeks after he was elected.

He made "this industry self regulated.' So he knew bloody well it was a problem.

My God Yabby whats his wife doing?
Whats McGaurans wife doing? All of them?

The Govener General and the little lady sipping high tea! SICKENING

What type of low life mongrel bastards do we have involved in OUR country.?


This is blatent barbaric cruelty which is destroying our reputation world wide.

MLA REFUSE! To Assist To Reopen Abattoirs In Australia by talking with parties in middle East.

They say they wont do "anything' ~that might effect the live~ Trade.??

Farmers Federation REFUSE to allow us to call a meeting and invite the farmers to meet with Middle Eastern people.

Austrade Refuse to assist in the co joint progect.
The corrupt bastards.

Doing Mark Vailes job should have been easy. He was Supposed! to be the Trade Minister.

No Mininster trades off his nations raws material in its most vaulable form unless he has another agenda.

That Agenda was to suck up to the big cruel live Animal Exporters and benefit from the trade deals which the farmers never REALLY understood and still DONT.

We need jobs for Migrants, Aboriginals, Regional areas even more as our population grows.

The country towns are starving for activity.

Abattoirs ARE the life blood in the bush.

That controls ALL other Industries.

Wake up Australia!

Well Dickie, best you stick to eating happily farmed free
range lamb or pork!

Talk about from one extreme to another. Professor ah.

Its too one sided. it holds NO alternatives.

We either find alternative`s or let in continue and get worse.

Thanks for putting this up dickie. It contains information that EVERY household should have.

Perhaps if each group "sent it out" by letter box to their own areas and three surrounding areas- We could work on the next three areas and so forth.

Yabby your just as your extreme in your attitude.
Extremely obtuse and extremely cruel, inncensive , annoying irritating---smile[ You know you love it!].

What sort of person turns their back on such UTTER Cruelty!
Dont you care we are breeding supper bugs that resist treatment through pumping animals with drugs?
What about your children and grandchildren.


Same taken we have the same old same old information and no other suggestion other than we all stop eating meat and make a donation which is almost just annoying.

Oh and thats apart from saying to stop imigrants and abattoir workers.

He`s how it "could " read.

In the 1930s, 24 percent of Americans worked in farming; in 2002 it was 1.5 percent.-
UN strongly supported by the Australian Government have launched the free Range Farmers Asociation to fight Global Warming and improve Animal Welfare.

Australia will play hosts to@@@ Univertity kids to learn to be free Range Farmers.
The Government also is running a programe to teach imigrants and refugees arriving to Australia how to become free range farmers.

Each Free Range Farm will also be supported by a School and their are many competitions at the end of each year.

The primary schools also have the.- My Favouite Farmers Compertition.

Etc
INSTEAD OF THIS>
You would be stop eating meat!
Buy organic eggs and milk from “free range” chickens and cows. Many studies have concluded that vegetarians live years longer. Those years can be used productively to make a better world. We need you.

TRY THIS- We ask everybody to write strong letters of protest to NAFTA heads protesting the following-
Food producers dump their products

I dont think writing letters willy nilly all over the place has much effect.

One well thought out, concentrated plan at a time would serve you much better.
