If you do a search for PAUSE - Colorado... it will bring up the bill .... called PAUSE .... and some of it is highlighted. The thought is that an animal should live 1/4th of it's natural life before it is killed.... BUT they are mandating what the natural life of an animal is. How about a cow lives 20 years, a chicken 10 years, stuff like that. Other animals have been "assigned" average lifespans.....
HELLO..... Mad Cow Disease..... the whole push to kill any bovine before 30 months or you cannot get back the backbone or anything that was in contact with the spinal cord....
And how about the broiler houses that routinely take the broilers out at 42-45 days on average... at 4+ lbs..... they cannot live to 2 1/2 yrs on those legs etc....
Yes some cows live to 20, some chickens might hit 10 if they are very lucky and pampered.... BUT SERIOUSLY??????
Dam dumb A$$hole people.....let them eat 5 yr old beef.... and 2 1/2 yr old CHEWY chicken.... But see, they wanted to go with a "meat out" day.... because they want us to stop raising meat so we quit eating it.....
They all need to go without a few meals.....like for a few months.....
