    The huge corporate farms are culling these chickens (I guess because it’s fun to light money on fire?).

    The experts say it’s 90%-100% deadly to chickens. Maybe it’s not always that high based on the particular strain, but all indications are THIS wave is in that most deadly category.

    My point was maybe you don’t know more than the actual experts? Like… surely there is some topic where the people who spend their lives in a particular field know more and don’t need advice from the all knowing AgingGator? But as I said, if you want to call the CEO’s of the biggest egg suppliers and let them they no longer need to cull chickens be my guest. You can even go over your made up mortality numbers so they can be properly informed how many chickens can be spared. Please record the calls and post here so we can all have a good laugh.

    Even if I had the patience or desire to do so it not would budge your infallible belief in government. You do know that these farmers are compensated by the government don’t you?

    But before you accuse me of making shit up here you go;

    Google Search


    Is it really that hard for you to believe that with all of gross corruption uncovered over the last few weeks that people would have suspicions on these things? I bet that you really believe that a dipshit 20 year old just climbed right up on that roof with an open, straight shot from a presidential candidate, outsmarting the USSS all the way?

    It’s not an “infallible belief” in govt, as it is understanding most things are simply as presented and not some crazy conspiracy or scam?

    I’ve thought about this “culling” before, and thought maybe if 20% survive they could be used to breed chickens that are immune (rather than leaving no surviving birds). But as I’m not an expert, I assume they’ve thought of that before and have their reasons. Or maybe it’s just not cost effective or worth the human health risk to try and go in amongst huge numbers of dead chickens to save the surviving birds?

    I agree with your post, but cannot determine which words are yours and which words you stole. Please use italics or quotation marks, they are free. I don't want GC to get a copy right infringement notice...

    As far as I know you don’t get to make up the rules. Here they are linked for your reference which you did not do. Everyone can follow the posting format of comment then link then a few sentences.

    Rules 1/17/2023

    I. Copyrighted material or copying non-copyright material
    When posting an article and link to a news source, keep in mind the following:
    If the article has more than 8 paragraphs then post 4 paragraphs
    If the article is 6-7 paragraphs then post 3 paragraphs
    If the article is 3-5 paragraphs then post 2 paragraphs.
    You may link to an article on a rival Gators site, that would be 247, Scout, Rivals and others that may start up.

    Laws supersede rules. Am pretty sure that you need to italicize or use quotation marks when posting words that are not yours due to copyright laws. Thanks for playing though...

    Here is a quote: "Eggs. I'm hearing so much about eggs. You'll figure it out. You gotta figure something out fast. And we inherited all the problems ... the big things, really, we can blame other people for."

    It's pretty obvious that all of the text underneath the link is taken from the link. That's commonly done here. But if you really wanted to confirm, you could have clicked on the link and found out that it was the first 4 paragraphs of the link.

    My grocery store finally relented and raised the price of eggs with a sign that said that while their suppliers are still bird flu free they can now get so much that they are selling to others and the store needs to raise the price.

    Although Pharma actually donated more to the Harris campaign Trump apparently wants to ensure that the industry will continue making large donations to Republicans. He is also motivated by a bizarre need to rescind Biden's EOs regardless of the substance of the EOs.

    You mean cuz GOV told you they uncovered mass corruption? Do you have ANY non-feelings based evidence that net corruption has gone down in the last few weeks?

    Often times, this poster interjects his/her personal subjective opinions within the allotted paragraphs and it is very difficult to ascertain what words are hers/his based on the incorrect (and illlegal?) format that he/she posts. Not quoting or italicizing or differentiating one's subjective words from the words one has copied and pasted is not only wrong in terms of writing standards, but is also tantamount to stealing and plagiarism, thus exposing Gator Country to copyright infringement notices...

    WTF are you talking about? It constitutes fair use under the copyright act.
