I feel like I just had my ears pulled by a bunch of schoolteachers. :lol:
What y'all seem to want is for us Arizona ranchers to roll over and play dead rather doing things our own way or calling your hand when you get uppity.
I think that's called "You can sure dish it out, but you can't take it".
I do not believe anyone is trying to put "US" Arizona ranchers down, I am one of those Arizona ranchers, and I disagree with his outlook!
When people deliberately and inhumanly treats a cow/calf/bull/steer or any other animal just to prove a point then trys to justify it by saying that "YOU" have no idea what it ranching is all about is just plain WRONG no matter where you are from.
There are a lot of good ranchers/cowboys on this site and you do not hear them bragging.
As far as who I have worked for and who I know in the business that is irrelevant!
Az yes you probabally do know me! That in turns means I know you
And that is embarrassing!
