    I don't know what to believe at this point. What I do know is there is talk of millions of poultry flock that will have to be done away with if they can't be processed. As I posted earlier, it's a stone cold fact that pork processing it down at minimum 20% and beef processing is down 30%. The reports I'm seeing is those numbers are going to do nothing but go up and believe me, there is no political bias involved with those prognostications.

    Beef calves can be held by the feed lots for a time but not indefinitely. Pork & poultry aren't quite as flexible. If they don't get processed they have to go somewhere. Milk is being dumped on farmland by the tens of thousands of gallons because there is no one to process it.

    We have plenty of meat and I have access to animals that are being fed out to finish by several neighbors. If push comes to shove we can process our own and have meat for a year or more. We've processed dozens of calves and even more hogs in the past so that won't be a problem.

    It's in the urban areas where things are going to get very sketchy if the shortages come to fruition.

      I watched a FB video today from a Texas cattle rancher. He said their organization has been approached by some shady govt workers and told them to start making plans to execute some of their cattle to stop the overwhelming supply!

      Only in America.....I mean China! smh

          These anti-gun nuts will be in serious trouble!

          Of course, a capitalist like me, will have plenty of expensive venison for sale......for Republicans only, of course!

            Sounds like they are trying to create an actual shortage, as a political move.

                    Nobody would, but if you seared the steak with a trump brand the democrat would starve himself to death to avoid anything trump.....and you know that's true.

                    It's pretty sad

                        We're about the same distance from chitcago as you are from Atlanta, ff. The urban inbred's know there is food to be had in the rural areas and they know our numbers are such that they can overwhelm a lot of us out here. Not to say that there won't be plenty of urban inbred's assuming room temperature but the numbers will, at some point, win out. The urban inbred's have been conditioned to believe and practice what much of the hard left espouses. That being it's perfectly fine to take from those who have with no regard to life or property and with no particular shame or guilt. It's how they've been wired since entering the indoctrination centers called primary schools.

                        I generally am not an alarmist, but a pragmatic realist, if you will. One must try to anticipate as many of the possibilities as the information that is available will allow. I may be way off base but circumstances could line up in a way that would necessitate a degree of violence, or the threat of it. I sure hope not.

                          Reading the headlines on MSM homepage is really depressing and scary. I think we will see a rise in the suicide rate as nothing but gloom and doom is peddled by the media.
