Kamala Harris: Of Course We Must Regulate How Much Meat Americans Are Eating
No, not referring to Willie Brown
[Townhall] During a CNN town hall special about climate change Wednesday night, Democrat Senator Kamala Harris was asked if she would be willing to change federal eating guidelines for the sake of saving the planet if she became president. She agreed with a questioner who argued Americans should be eating less meat and that the government should force them into other dietary habits.

Not only is Harris' promise to limit meat intake hypocritical, it's part of a broader globalist push. From a Time piece titled, "If We Want to Stop Climate Change, Now is a Moment of Reckoning for How We Use the Planet, Warns U.N. Report":

#1 No worries. If people like you take charge, there won't be meat, bread or any other food on the store shelves (i.e. Venezuela).

#4 Someone should have asked her what the legal authority of these guidelines would be. Also, how much force and how it would be applied.

#6 Government has been telling us what to eat starting in the 50's. We've been getting fatter, sicker and stupider ever since.

#13 But with a reduction in meat eating, the cow population will explode and all the methane will overwhelm the planet. to prevent that we should eat more meat. and more often.

#14 USN, not necessarily. Once it becomes economically impossible to raise cattle, many of them will be killed or die of starvation when farmers and ranchers can no longer feed them. After that, the few remaining will wander around, eating whatever they can.
I saw this in Bangalore, India several years ago. Since Hindus don't eat cows, many of them wander the streets, eating garbage or whatever they can. Strangely enough, I saw people milking them.

Good foto PU, don't forget to mind the sizing. The jumbo pics wreck the site. Go to google for smaller sizes if necessary. Thanks, Besoeker

#18 Thanks Rambler. I was trying to use as much logic as Kameltoe Harris in her statement......
didn't think a sarc tag was needed.

You will see this just about everywhere in India. The cows wandering around are a combination of abandoned cows that quit or don’t produce enough milk. Young heifers that haven’t started and bulls that aren’t needed. The ones that give a little milk are milked by the jhuggi wallahs, I’ve heard the milk is nasty due to the diet of garbage. Doesn’t bother the JW’s though.
