I am not following it real closely but there was quite a shake up by the Association for doing things that wasn't done properly.
Mod2 made the following statement and I quote:
"....... this is certainly not good for the breed to the outside viewer and surely cast a dim light on the industry."
That was on a previous thread. In light of that observation and the thread Ken put up about the plethora of Angus allegations, as Ken stated, if criticisms of a breed or Association are going to be made they should:
1. Be documented at least to the extent that it is not just rhetoric, exaggeration or tall tales.
2. Enough specifics should be provided to discuss the allegations.
I am reminded of the uprising over Branded's criticism of cattle husbandry practices. Many treated that as sacrilege, but only Ken and I have voiced wonderment at all the hearsay about how bad the Angus breed is and the AAA.
