Many of the world's billionaires have derived their gold bullion from
the blood of innocents.

Ted Turner, world's biggest bison butcher
Ted Turner, world's biggest bison butcher


Part Owner of Arsenal Soccer Team Connected To Mammal Genocide

St. Louis Rams co-owner E. Stanley Kroenke acquired the 514,000-acre Douglas Lake Ranch in British Columbia, Canada from MCI for an estimated $68.5 million. Kroenke also owns 600,000 acres of cattle ranches in Montana
and Wyoming. The owner of the most acreage in the US devoted
to raising mammals for murder is Ted Turner with 2 million acres
of bison ranches in 10 states.

Douglas Lake Ranch is the largest cattle ranch
(cow concentration camp pre-slaughter) in Canada

Kroenke is chairman of THF Realty, a developer and owner of numerous shopping centers, office buildings and industrial projects around the country, including Wal-Mart development. He is also owner of Denver-based Kroenke Sports Enterprises LLC, which owns the Pepsi Center, the Colorado Avalanche, the Denver Nuggets, Colorado Mammoth, and the Universal Lending Pavilion. He also has ownership interest in the Colorado Crush and Denver's Paramount Theatre.

I suggest the FA deduct 50 points from Arsenal so they are relegated.

Everyone knows it was a fiddle the way they were promoted in 1919 and that they shouldn;t really be in the top flight anyway.

Is Kroenke supplying meat to WalMart

29.05.2009 19:41


Kroenke was given a capital boost as the husband
of WalMart founder Sam Walton's niece Ann, whom he met 9 years
after WalMart was founded. Since he was close
to both Sam Walton and his brother Bud, is
it reasonable to assume he is supplying meat
to the unionbusting company? www.walmartwatch.com

Showing the difference (animal rights vs envronmentalism)

"The owner of the most acreage in the US devoted to raising mammals for murder is Ted Turner with 2 million acres of bison ranches in 10 states."

Well first of all, these are not entrely bison operations, still some conventional cattle on those lands. But more important is the OBJECTIVE. Turner is attempting to establish a wildlife corridor north to south and even one of the richest people in the world can't afford that much US real estate. So it simply can't be done unless the beads on the chain* are working operations that once set up no longer cost. Similar to how on a smaller scale your own Beatrix Potter managed to accumulate/save so much of the Lake District.

Anyway, because the intent is for WILDLIFE that's why as much as possible bison operations rather than conventional cattle as bison were the original large grzers on this land.

Yes I understand, our values differ. Sometimes animal rights and environmentalists are aligned on the same side of issues. Other times we are on opposite sides because what we are trying to do is actually quite different and for different reasons. What we have to do is learn how to manage to cooperate on those issues where we are aligned while not allwoing the reality that we will be 'enemies" on other issues divide us.



* Wildlife moves poorly through a narrow corridor. But a "beaded chain" where the corridor has periodic wider areas not too far apart allows movement better. Unless there is some genetic movement between isolated populations eventually these would die out.
