This could have happened and it might not be an accident in either case:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090429/ap_on_re_us/us_dead_polo_horses

http://tinyurl.com/dgrxle

It turns out that the polo ponies were killed by excess selenium in their feed, close to the time that the 3 Strikes horses died. What is really suspicious here is that so many animals could have died when the rest of them, which can be seen in those photographs, have really good body mass.

Mandatory spay and neuter means pets must grow old and die without replacements. No more babies, no more pets in our homes. Stop it before it's nationwide. Sterile animals cannot replenish themselves. It's the "facts" of life.

Mustang Ranch

The horse that I pointed out has some darker mud streaks just where shading is needed to look thinner, and they look very much like they were drawn on. I can't tell for sure whether they were put there before or after the picture was taken. The mud in the shading is darker than the mud on the rest of the horse. One thing that tells you that that horse could be handled: most of the mane has been trimmed off. There is no good reason to have done that and a few of them I just don't get, trimming the mane off in the middle but not front or back.

Some of the alleged jutting spines seem to be paired with bulky hips and shoulders. Picture number 4 has a very peculiar physical impossibility in it, as if some ribs somehow got totally misplaced. I don't know if the artist who altered the picture has seen a horse before. Look carefully at the one in the very front in a magnified picture and you can see things that are impossible. The one furthest back has ribs in the wrong place also, an alleged showing rib that makes a curved line right to the middle of the spine. That had to be drawn on. The darkest horse in that same picture has shading added to make the spine look like it is protruding and at the same time it has a massive butt. Gedonkey-donk hips do not go with a spine that is protruding because of starvation. The blurring is a bit variable, masking some alterations, and some of the blurring seems to erase compression artifacts, which also indicates fakery.

Like I said, the pictures are not for sale because they want to harass anyone who analyzes them and they particularly do not want someone to mark a picture with lines and arrows and circles to show the alterations and what those pictures looked like before they were processed.

Such pictures should not be considered evidence unless they can be proven to be unaltered. The complaining witnesses, the persecution, and the court should bear the cost of proving that their photographs are real, not the defendant.

Three Strikes Mustang Ranch Pictures Faked Up to Look Like Animal Abuse for Defaming Fraudulent News Story!

From: Thomas Kirby

Mustang Ranch

Photo album: http://starherald.mycapture.com/mycapture/category.asp?CategoryID=49241 or http://tinyurl.com/ckcm2n Every picture can be saved, just right click and use the right click menu. Don't click on "ok" or "X" until you've saved the pictures because that will exit the right click menu. There's a big reason why these pictures are not for sale. It's because if they are not for sale they can prevent someone from buying and republishing them, in other words, they control the evidence. Honest people do not obscure, conceal, or prevent evidence from being evaluated skeptically.

Article: http://www.9news.com/seenon9news/article.aspx?storyid=114503&catid=509 or http://tinyurl.com/dnynhu

They claim that the owner of Three Strikes, one Jason Meduna, starved a bunch of horses to death. Here's my problem: Most of the pictures at the "Star Herald" obscure any real view of the horses. Some of them actually show enough of the horses to get an idea what they are like, and only one of them looks skinny. Even that one looks fairly normal for an elderly horse.

Look hard at this picture: http://tinyurl.com/c65lhu I can't tell if it is done with hardware or software, but mud is painted on the horses neck and throat to try to simulate the look of a starving horse. The fact that they created and promulgated such a lie proves that the "Star Herald" is in on it and that not one word of their story can be believed. These pictures are evidence of the crime of fraud. I mean, talk about shading the truth, they literally shaded in alterations of the pictures to make the horses look skinny. Look past the screwing around and you can see that the horse is actually overweight.

The photographer needs to be asked some hard questions, starting with, does she think that we are complete idiots? Does anyone know anything about this "Maunette Loeks"? The 3-Strikes photo album is the only one I see on the site that is not for sale. Why not?

In at least one photograph they seem to have morphed a horse's neck and head using a cow as a model since a cow has a different neck. Another one looks like a llama's neck. There is physical make-up. I'm pretty sure that they finger-painted mud on some of the horses that you can see close-up and you can see that the hollows in the neck aren't actually there when you magnify the picture. The most obvious sign that they are messing around is the shorn manes. Someone who is neglecting his horses isn't going to cut the manes off like that.

Someone actually trimmed the horse's manes to make them look thinner. They spent a considerable amount of time cooking the physical evidence before they brought the news crews in. They also altered the photographs, in my opinion. What a shame. The humane movement has become a complete lie. I never wanted to have to say that.

Sweet Relief From Syrupy Misinformation "High fructose corn syrup is one of the most misunderstood products in the food supply," said Harvard's David Ludwig last night on NBC Nightly News. That's because sugar is sugar, whether it's made from beets, cane, or corn. All are nearly identical in molecular composition, and exactly equal in sweetness and calorie content. As Marion Nestle (along with other food cops) admits, "The body can hardly tell them apart." Yet crafty marketers have been perpetuating the myth that some sweeteners are healthier than others. How do they pull it off? In part by confusing pure fructose with high fructose corn syrup. Sucrose (table sugar) is made of equal parts glucose and fructose. High fructose corn syrup, on the other hand, has the word "fructose" in its name, so some consumers assume it's super-concentrated with fructose. Not so. High fructose corn syrup contains either 42 or 55 percent fructose. (The rest is, like table sugar, plain old glucose.) Which means that some high fructose corn syrup -- the 42-percent variety -- actually has less fructose in it than table sugar. Not that fructose is a legitimate dietary demon in the first place. Sugar is sugar is sugar. But many consumers are happily deceived into thinking that some sweeteners are superior to others. In the Journal of Nutrition today, biochemist John S. White writes: Inaccurate information from ostensibly reliable sources and selective presentation of research data gathered under extreme experimental conditions, representing neither the human diet nor HFCS, have misled the uninformed and created an atmosphere of distrust and avoidance for what, by all rights, should be considered a safe and innocuous sweetener … HFCS does not pose a unique dietary risk in healthy individuals or diabetics. Today, The New York Times recounts Dr. White's conclusion that a recent University of California-Davis study demonizing fructose in general "did not test high-fructose corn syrup … and judgments should not be made about it from the findings." But judgments about high fructose corn syrup likely will be made anyway. Why? Because as this New York Times headline implies, demonizing high fructose corn syrup can do wonders for a sugar marketer's bottom line. But smart marketing doesn't change the facts: You won't be any healthier switching from high fructose corn syrup to table sugar. Or honey. Or agave nectar. Or molasses. You get the picture.

Many years ago, I had someone contact me twice who claimed to be with a video production company. He wanted to come into the kennel to take video for promotional purposes. He said they wanted to do a public interest piece on kennels, but that it would be free publicity for my kennel if I let them come in to video. At first, it sounded exciting and interesting. But then, I thought better of it. I did not agree to this. At the time, I didn't know so much about the animal rights movement and their tactics, and how they were trying to gather "evidence" to close down kennels.

Come to find out years later that a lot of the AR activist people in the S. California area are employed in the entertainment industry and have something to do with audio and video production.

You might think that they couldn't show anything wrong if there WAS nothing wrong, but that is not true. They do things like play with the lighting and filters on the cameras, move the camera around fast, use odd angles and cut frames quickly, in a way that is visually confusing to the viewer, suggesting chaos and lack of harmony. They pick and choose, using the worst looking segments and the good footage ends up "on the cutting room floor". They try to make the animals look desperate, frantic, sad. Most of it ends up in the minds of the viewer, but they try to create a bad impression and generally succeed, because the general public doesn't understand animal husbandry, or why dogs are better off living in "cages". To one friend of mine, a 20' x 20' fenced yard was a "cage" and she considered that "cruel". She let her personal dog out to roam the neighborhood while she went to work each day.. That little dog ended up with two major surgeries, pins in it's pelvis, etc. after getting hit by cars. But, that was "kind" and restraining a dog to a yard was "cruel". This is what we are dealing with! Public opinion is a treacherous trap!

Please do not allow people to come into your home or kennel to see puppies or dogs you have for sale. It is extremely dangerous. I have been preaching this for several years. Animal extremists demand to come into your home so they can gather "evidence" against you. Attackers want to come into your home to do harm to you and your family. You should meet prospective buyers in a busy public place.

I had to kick a hustler and con man out of a relative's home a couple of years ago. We should have taken lessons from this guy. He was a drug user, so he needed a co-dependant in his life, and he was very manipulative to always keep people off balance and subservient to him. He acted like a bully, sometimes getting wildeyed and frenzied in anger. Occasionally, he would be really nice, and treat you like his friend, or do something thoughtful.. all designed to keep the victim guessing, never sure what to do, whether to leave the relationship, etc.

One of the things he would do is to accuse others of doing crappy things. A good person wants to defend their reputation, or repair the misunderstanding. So, you tend to engage them and try to be a "fixer". This is where they get good, ethical people and twist them into any shape they want. We need to understand that we are NOT responsible for the other guy's problem! That's where we buy into their game as a co-dependant.

The animal rights organizations are dependants on others. They produce nothing. They only accuse and exploit. They are looking for victims and co-dependants, and they use their wiles and the naivety of "good", well-intentioned people to continue the con game.

Because that's something that they can take away from their opposition by making it appear to be immoral. As long as they can make any pretense to any sort of attempt to help animals the AR people can continue the charade that their money is for helping animals. It's simple strategy. Deny their opponent the use and benefit even of their own resources. This is also what they do with potential donors, not that I see anyone on our side saying "please donate to us so that we can help the animals" which would be the truth.

The truth is that buying dogs helps animals. Almost any home is better than a stinking AR-managed kennel and offers a much better chance of survival and a pleasing life for the animals.

Some of us good people don't get what we want because we're so busy being good, even trying to satisfy unreasonable standards, that we don't ask. They're making us spin our wheels and go nowhere.

WARNING: Phony Anti-Meat Doctors Getting Desperate For Publicity This morning, a Washington Post blogger gave fear-mongering vegans at the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) some long-overdue advice: "Lighten up!" Taking a page from their close friends at PETA, PCRM caught the attention of a major newswire this week with a publicity stunt involving a novelty cheeseburger at a minor-league baseball stadium in Michigan. The four-pound monster burger, said PCRM's Susan Levin, shouldn't be sold without a "dietary disaster" warning label. Because no one knows that eating 4,800-calorie burgers isn't a healthy habit. Right. The Post's Jennifer Huget was not impressed: Give me a break. I've got to think that PCRM has got bigger fish to fry… Of course nobody's suggesting that monster burgers become a dietary mainstay. But this is clearly a prank, a silly attention-getting device. To suggest that it's likely to encourage widespread overindulgence in hypercaloric ground beef sandwiches is, I think, disingenuous. Seems health advocacy groups, like minor-league ball teams, sometimes need a bit of publicity. I don't want to eat a big burger myself. But I defend other people's right to cram one in their face if they so choose. PCRM looks silly indeed for ignoring the fact that Michigan's minor-league fans are probably in on the joke with this gigantic burger. (For crying out loud, the thing has its own t-shirt.) But Huget slightly misses the mark on one point: To PCRM, there are no bigger fish than getting Americans to stop eating meat. One shameless food scare, phony medical claim, and meaningless warning label at a time. Breaking News Here's a sampling of other stories that have caught our interest today.
