Anti-meat Activist to Lecture at WSU
It’s Friday and on OpenRange Wrap up, I bet I get your dander up when you hear that one of our most vocal anti meat activist is giving a lecture in ranch country. What’s Up with that! I’m Susan Allen stay tuned. Hum, last week we announced that fifteen million dollars was awarded to Washington State University from the US Department of Ag for crop research, there is a video on aginfo.net that explains what crops will benefit and how this is fabulous not only for WSU’s Ag department but northwest farmers. So now why insult them? That’s right. WSU’s department of undergraduate education is slapping our regions cattle producers in the face by hosting one the nation’s most vocal anti-meat activists Michael Pollen next Wednesday on campus. Given this man’s triads against meat, Republicans, the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, the National Restaurant Association and even Ronald Reagan he should be on a slow boat to Taiwan (where thanks to his fear mongering about mad cow they ban US beef products ) But no, only in America would Mr. Pollan author of the Omnivores Dilemma be invited to spew his agenda to impressive young minds on a University with a rich heritage in the cattle Industry. The event is January 13 at 7:00 in Beasley Coliseum with a Q and A Session at 3:00-4:00 for students only , imagine that! surprised? Angry? Ranching alumni should call the office of Undergraduate education at WSU right now to voice your beef. I’m Susan Allen
