Wheels Are Turning
Dutch farmers protest the Brussels-centered EU’s mandates on nitrogen sources and use. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/10/01/dutch-farmers-in-mass-protest-against-green-fascism/ They have the full support of the Dutch people, as you’ll see in the links below.
That was at the beginning of October this year. It all has to do with nitrogen, a natural chemical element which is vital to healthy plant growth, and how it is damaging the environment because COW FART EMISSIONS!!! This shows a complete lack of understanding of plant life, period.
So the Dutch farmers, not willing to submit to mandates by a bunch of old f**rts in Brussels over there in Belgium, took to the roads with their tractors, not just once, but a second time.
And still not happy with the response from the government in The Hague, and being unwilling to take direction from the EU’s capital of Brussels, in Belgium, they rolled again, this time backed up by truckers and people along the way, coming and going, who gave them the “thumbs up” and held up signs “We LOVE Farmers!”. The following is a summary of the three protests. I particularly appreciate the image of straw being blown out of a grain combine’s funnel stack at the police. ? But that’s just me. https://wattsupwiththat.com/2019/10/20/thread-about-the-recent-farmer-protests-in-the-nl/
In the comments in the third post, you’ll see a link to a video of ecohipppies who decided to hold an anti-fracking protest on private land. The landowner sprayed the spot that the protesters had set up on HIS land as a response. His spray of choice was liquified cow shit, which is a natural fertilizer. The local police stood by and watched and let it go on. I have seldom been so happy to see someone use cow shit quite like that. ?
In case you’re having some difficulty sorting out the meaning of this, it says, plainly, that people at the working end of the stick – farmers, office workers, people who run shops, working people in general – are fed up to their chins with these hypocritical ecohippies who not only think that food comes from “the store”, but don’t have a real grasp on the natural world itself. And as George Carlin said, they don’t really care about the planet or the environment. Not in the abstract, they don’t.
How is this relevant to us? Farming is where your food comes from, whether you’re a civilian or in the military. It doesn’t just fall out of the sky or sit quietly in the reefer.
The ecohippies howl about species disappearing or going extinct, but if you asked them to name them, they can’t. They want a “green world”, which they can’t define, but have no concept of the real green world. Nor can they name any species of plant, useful or otherwise, or its origins. Basically, they can’t tell a sugar pea vine from a morning glory, or a sunflower from a compass plant. Nor do they have any understanding of the severe fire danger in leaving wooded areas untouched and not thinned out.
That was a problem around here until the DNR took matters into its own hands and started cutting back and thinning trees in heavily wooded areas, because they represent a real fire hazard to local communities. Nobody here protested that. The result now is that the spindly, skinny trees that were getting inadequate sunlight and were struggling to get near the tops of the older trees are now getting adequate and badly needed rain and sunshine and the underbrush no longer represents a fire hazard to surrounding areas.
There is a constant demand for money-money-money by the IPCC, a nongoverning branch of the nongoverning UN, which the US is not answering as it is not put to any use that we can’t address ourselves. This resistance to forking it over with no questions is starting to grow, too. Anyone who would cave into that kind of blackmail needs to be handed his walking paper. I believe that, a while back, there was someone in WDC who did cave into it.
I’m glad to see that the real working people are responding appropriately to these groups of slacker twits, not just here but also in the UK and in the Netherlands. May it spread into a global movement as people take back their own.
Category: "The Floggings Will Continue Until Morale Improves", I hate hippies
Looks like folks are getting a little tired of their angry scold princelings.
Perhaps vote them out, hmmm?
Yeah! Fine by me! I think politicians should only take their seat if they’re willing to go without food and shelter for six months as a penalty.
Give all the cows some Gas-X, Beano, or a comparable product. Problem solved.
Or we could just tell the eco-hippies to sit down, shut up, and quit trying to run our lives.

My Dad was a small cattle farmer in Southeast Alabama because he loved to raise livestock. In his affinity with animals his heard was his pets. We could walk among them, pet them and hand feed them. We also had a small slaughterhouse to process beef and pork for local farmers.
In the first forty years of my life among the critters I never experienced a cow FARTING!!!
Their defication was somewhat pronounced but was always quite solid (or liquid in some cases).
That being said, cow patties deteriorating emitted mostly methane and a few other benign gases. In some third-world countries methane capture became a source of fuel that displaced wood products that were sparce and failing. Nepal, for instance.
Anyone that maintains that the flatuative emission from cows is a destructive source of pollution is JUST PLAIN NUTS!!!

Some won’t notice.
YOu can add posts and videos about the Working People pushing back against the XR (Extinction Rebellion) (which is full of XIRs).

among others…………..
Yep. I had those up the other day, too, and they are awesome! The guy in gray is wearing gray scrubs.
These people are a threat to the general public’s welfare, far more than any possibility of “climate change”.
Road blocking tactics like those used by XR (among other groups) is why I carry a cudgel with me in my car, just to deliver a little of that good ol’ “wall to wall counseling” that seems to be the only way some people will ever learn.
I carry this. MRS D got it for me when I fractured my heel. It doesn’t raise suspicions like a cudgel or truncheon.

Don’t think of walking with a cane as a shit magnet.
Think of it as “hunting over bait”. (Grin).
The cane ain’t the only thing I’m carrying. I’m too tired to fight and too broken to run.
As I said, “hunting over bait”. (Grin)
Has it been “corked”?
Nope. It’s just a thick section of a tree branch from close to the trunk. A hole has been drilled into the smaller end for a rope lanyard.
I never intend to get stranded by a car’s frozen lug nuts ever again, so I carry the appropriate socket and an 18″ steel breaker bar, Just for lug nuts, y’know.
Is this the same ‘nitrogen’ that makes up like 70+% of the atmosphere? No wonder our atmosphere is so lethal… everything that breathes it dies.
That N2 gas has to be “fixed” into plant-friendly nitrates in the soil. Clover does it nicely. Thus, farmers leaving fields fallow for a few years, in clover and grazing critters.
Or you buy commercially-made stuff and add it to the soil.
Years ago I had a debate / discussion with a so called “environmentalist” who wanted to end fossil fuels for cars.
“A noble goal,” said I. “What would you replace the combustion engine with?”
“Electric vehicles!” she said smiling.
“Besides the fact that battery technology can’t handle the loads or distances, where are you planning on getting the electricity? You are against nuclear power plants, right?”
“Those things are horrible,” she said. “We should not have nuclear power ever.”
“Then where are you going to get the electricity to run the cars?” I asked again.
Her response was “from the wall. You plug the cars into a wall socket!”
“But that wall socket has to have power generated from somewhere – some sort of power plant,” I told here. “You know, like nuclear, coal, natural gas….”
“Oh no,” she said. “You don’t understand. All you have to do is plug the car into the wall socket like a light.”
That was her answer to everything. Just plug it in.
I knew I was dealing with a real genius when I asked her about the street lamps. “How are they powered?”
“They have really long extension cords I guess,” was her reply.
Fearing the worse, I asked her “and where is the cord plugged into?”
“Into a wall somewhere. I don’t know all the particulars!”
She was past college age, was with a boyfriend who had an insipid superior grin on his face, and neither had ever been out into the real world and had to pay a bill or set up an account for electricity with a local utility.
I suspect that she thought the power company would run a really long extension cord to her new apartment when she got one……if ever.
I hate to say this, but like her and the people in this story, eco-weenies breed.
Lord help us all.
“I signed up for a renewable collective. My power is from solar and wind.”
“At night, on a calm day?”
“Uh”
“You are driving a coal-powered car.”
Hmmmmm, somebody rediscovered the coal and wood gas generators of Europe in the WWll era.
Fred Bondy (Dothan, Al. Ford dealer) rigged up a F 150 to run on wood some years ago. Can’t remember the name of the magazine where the hippies did the same with a sawmill.
Brain fart recovery! The hippies were The Mother Earth News. I loved the gadgets they came up with.
Why am I not surprised? I’m certainly not impressed either except for how dangerously clueless she is.
That dimwit and her boyfriend really ARE that stupid. If they live long enough to get gray hair, they will still be that dumb and uninformed.
Unfortunately, you’re probably right Ex.
I hope that the grandchildren of my generation are able to separate the wheat from the chaff, because those dimwits are the chaff.
Here’s hoping that they stay in the PRoCA and DO NOT reproduce!
Hydroelectric Dams are not only emissions-free, they’re a reliable source of power as well, BUT the enviro-kooks are against them because they bawl about fish migration, IMHO being liberal means NEVER being happy or satisfies about anything. They screech about us needing wind power, but look at the PRoCA right now where there’s plenty of wind but the Electric Utility Companies are shutting their ill-maintained grid down in fear of starting more fires, they’ll never win! In the meantime I’ll enjoy driving around in my new V8-powered 4WD Pickup and the A Proud Infidel®™ Manor now has a propane-fueled backup generator in case of a power failure, FOSSIL FUELS RULE!!!
I haven’t been in a classroom in a few years, but way back in the last century the mixture that makes up our earth’s atmosphere was about 79% Nitrogen. Is that not still the case?
Yes, that’s true. And, nitrogen is only utilized by plants with the aid of bacteria in the soil. Ruminants=bacteria factories. So, logically, let’s kill all the ruminants.
The ironic thing about all this is that while the shrill protesters are getting themselves sprayed with cow shit, THEY ARE NOT BREEDING.
The collective average fertility rate for Northern Europe is probably around 1.8…which means but they are not spawning enough children to replace themselves. Thus, solving the very problem that they are protesting against.
Here’s hoping that those millennial moonbats in the USA live up to their promises of not to reproduce!
Lived on a dairy farm for eight years back in the seventies. Young city guy fresh outta Nam.
Bought a 73 Husqvarna 400 CR and rode the cow
patties as obstacles on a motocross track the
owner let us construct. A motocross track in cow
pasture. No shit!
My buddy had a 450 WR and we had local dirt
bikers show up on weekends.
One day I was spinning the rear wheel on top of
the manure pile next to the barn and fell over
with the throttle wide open.
Pictures or it didn’t happen? Got em.
Ever play Frisbee with sun baked cow patties?
To be honest, spraying shit around eco hippies may actually make them smell a little better, if it can overpower their own hippy stank.
Yeah, I myself would MUCH rather smell cow manure than the stench of hippie/hipster BO mixed with patchouli!
Those candyassed idiot snowflakes who want to bawl about methane emissions have obviously never been around an Infantry Platoon after they’ve been eating nothing but MRE’s!
Guys, we have a major problem here. I don’t know where else to post this. https://www.dailywire.com/news/walsh-court-rules-that-a-mom-can-transition-son-into-girl-against-his-dads-wishes-this-is-evil-insane-child-abuse
