Dont you have some Ostriches you should be clubbing to death?

I presume for the cull they just made the angry townsfolk do it? Or did they just herd them to drown them in the lake?

So after 70 ostriches died from the virus, they resisted culling the herd creating conditions where the virus is more likely mutate for a year, and risk an ecological disaster. And they want people to feel sorry for them?

These have to be some of the most selfish and entitled people.

But they are genetically special and can cure everything with their eggs. Don’t you see that big pharma is behind this whole thing?cmon it has to be that doesn’t it?

The farmers asked Trump to intervene on their behalf. Tells you who they are.

At this point I’m not sure the Russian troll farms need to do much to feed these idiots and whip them up, they are self sustaining now.

So they probably don't realize that international treaties, including with the U.S., make it an obligation to cull the farm after an outbreak. If we didn't, I am sure Trump would use it as an excuse to limit trade even more.

I know, I just find it so funny...everything about it is hilarious starting with the fact that probably none of those idiots has a job but they live in Mommy and Daddy's house and use their boat to get wasted every day.

And then imagine making that music video...then sitting around with all your 'homies' and watching it and thinking..."yes! This is our vision! This is how we want to represent ourselves! Perfection!"

I wonder if they'd do a 'where are they now' video? Probably slaughtering Ostriches for minimum wage.

It's the convoy crowd. It's just an excuse for the usual suspects to cry government overreach about something they don't understand. They actually don't give a rats ass about ostriches, or anything other than themselves really. Just gubment bad.

I for one approve of an Ostrich Convoy. Just park the Birds on Parliament Hill.

You thought Truckers were bad??

They also owe hundreds of thousands to creditors. Deadbeats.

As the farm has sought public support and donations for a federal court battle to keep the flock alive, creditors claim the business owners have ignored B.C. Supreme Court orders to repay debts worth more than $250,000.
