To a (R), Red Tailed Hawk = Abortion

[Darth Rotor]

"Meat and law. Two things you stop liking once you've seen it made."

Not so.
I've watched cattle fornicate.
I have killed, skinned, and butchered deer.
I visited a slaughterhouse ... and man, that was an eye opener.

I still like meat.

 

[Dessi]

No, I still like meat.

Ditto.

Incorrect.

I've heard that before, but I've known butchers and farmers, and nothing has off put me from eating meat. Stuff dies so i can eat it, as long as its an animal i don't really care for as a pet, I'm perfectly fine.

On the flip side i stopped watching bear grylis, and buying his knives for eating a skunk, so to each their own.

I watched a Temple Grandin documentary and at least in that place cows go calmly in a line into a machine that sends a bolt into their brain killing them instantly and they expect nothing. This is important to me, because I have a suspicion that the fight or flight chemicals would give the meat a bad taste.

The saying is usually "sausage and law". You might not want to know what goes into either. But the result is generally better with sausage.

Or a good taste.

"Now tortured for extra flavor!"

Is that why the king of the jungle eats it's prey alive? Science needs to answer this question.

Blood sausage being a serious exception.

Putting the "fresh" back in "flesh."

The ads just write themselves.

Maybe we could get a TV show on the Food Network.... "Not-Cooking With Cuauhtemoc". Aztec recipes for still live organ meats. (No dogs or horses were harmed in the making of this show.)

I have butchered cows and pigs and made sausage and i still eat both.

"cows and pigs" or "sausage and law"?

Not so.

I could read 20 threads and find 50 cute puns, quips, and piths just like my post, but I doubt I'd ever find as many inexplicably defensive replies like the ones above.

"Sausage and law" isn't exactly an obscure quotation, and is a completely appropriate bit of topical satire in the context of OP. I wish I could find the words to relate my confusion regarding why my post, no different the kinds of flippant remarks in the 200,000 other threads, was so badly misconstrued by no less than 12 different people.

Yeah, this.

Why did everyone take up their arms over this quip?

Let's go back to making fun of the jackasses who struck down the hawk bill.

I think Hillary's decision to handle her State Department correspondence on a personal email server, along with her resistance to reasonable demands for transparency and accountability on this issue, and the Democrat's overwhelming support for this behavior, is a lot more troubling. You could stack up a lot of trivial jackassery such as this hawk=abortion thing, before the pile matched the height of crap that Hillary's party is willing to tolerate from their own. Congrats, democrats.

Translated: "Sure, our side did something stupid, but...but...your side did something even stupider! So there!"

There's a name for this, I just can't seem to remember what it is.

Agree.

I had a law and egg buscuit once; it was terrible.

 

[Regnad Kcin]

I'll have law, law, law, law, sausage and law.

I love law!

 

[twinstead]

It just goes to show that no matter what your beliefs, at least try not to be a dick. The subject of the OP failed miserably at that.

now THAT'S a good summary of the issue.

 

[The Shrike]

. . . And that guy should be castigated as an enemy of New Hampshire's farmers for devaluing and defaming Red-tailed Hawks. Does the moron not understand the vital role hawks provide in rodent control? I bet that was one of the things the kids learned about the ecological benefits of predators that led to their interest in declaring a state raptor.

 

[Gawdzilla Sama]

I'll have law, law, law, law, sausage and law.

Can I have the society without so much law in it?

It would have been a completely appropriate bit of satire had you used the original form "sausages and law." Subverting it to an anti-meat rhetoric struck a chord with some people. In that regard, rather than being satire, it came off as not much different than what the legislator did by injecting the total non-sequitur of a controversial topic into the discussion of the bill about a state bird.

There are dozens of variations on the same quote and mine was quoted from memory.

I doubt that it matters. I would have received as many inexplicably defensive posts if I'd said "sausage and law" instead of "meat and law".

Subverting it to an anti-meat rhetoric

Need to stop you mid-sentence and note that I did not "subvert" anything nor imply any sort of off-topic "rhetoric" at all. If someone feels I did, then they are reading motives into my post which aren't there.

Urgghh!

The war against Straw Vegan continues, it seems. At least that was my reading of the situation.

"Meat and law. Two things you stop liking once you've seen it made."

I saw meat being made , i rendered animals for t5heir meat and it was not even half as disgusting as what i watched with partisan politic. In fact i am still eating meat but i am still disgusted to hell by politic.

I don't think it would have. People would have read that in the spirit in which it was intended.

That's how it came off. It's possible that your version of the quotation was misconstrued, but obviously a lot of people read it the same way. There is a considerable distinction between how "meat" is made and how "sausage" is made.

"Meat and law. Two things you stop liking once you've seen it made."

I've had the same experience after growing vegetables. Nasty.

 

[Manopolus]

"Meat and law. Two things you stop liking once you've seen it made."

No, I still like meat.

Same here, and I've "made" it personally all the way from living animals to the meal itself.

...but it's a bit off topic.

 

[carrps]

"Meat and law. Two things you stop liking once you've seen it made."

Actually, it's sausage, not meat.

Seeing meat made? Would that be a cow and bull doing the nasty?
