For one its not some guy my stepdad kinda sorta knows. Its someone he insures since he owns an insurance company and the guy tried to put in a malicious damage property claim which didnt go through because cows arent really of auditory value....Also you have NO evidence, so your argument is WORSE than mine.....And give me a break about the websites...the fact of the matter is these people cared enough to make a website...you DONT, and you ARENT an expert on cows any more than i am just because you live near cows.....You are completely wrong and the fact tthat you think you are correct because i dont have "enough" evidence is a completely failed argument. You think nature created animals so they could fall down, thats ridiculous, and of course every animal created by nature was created perfectly right because nature never makes a mistake right? You're being ignorant,,,..maybe someday you will take a five foot plunge in the middle of sleeping and then you can tell me it didnt hurt. Anyways i gave you three websites i found in two seconds...Try searching for cow tipping on google, i got loads of results and most of them are either a joke of the fact or a site expressing the dangers to the cows and to yourself.
Also why would i ask about whether i should or shouldnt be eating steak when it has NOTHING to do with the argument...Changing the subject because you cant back up your own argument with jack except "Im Andrew and i must know more about cows because i saw one fall when i was younger" ?
I swear Pete. Sometimes, you seem so smart. And other times you make posts like this.
Here's the situation. I have first hand experience. I am not trying to convince you of my first hand experience. I am just telling you, "been there, done that". I have been directly involved with the whole cow tipping thing. Now you are trying to say I am wrong. Correct? Yes. You did.
So, if you want to PROVE I am wrong, you have to give me evidence. My evidence is my own first hand experience. So are you discounting that? Are you saying I am a liar? If so, just say it. Stop dancing around it.
I don't THINK i am right because you have no evidence. I THINK I am right because I have SEEN IT FIRST HAND. If you want to show me that I am NOT right, then do so. But you the burden of proof is on YOU in that case.
Also, Cows don't sleep standing up. That's a common myth. So the whole "fall while sleeping thing" is null.
And the NSPCA comment was directed at the fact that the NSPCA is going to be extreme in their protection of animals even to the point of advising people not to eat meat. It's just a fact of the organization. So the comment was not in ANY way changing the subject, because it was quite relevant to the topic. YOu were suggesting that the NSPCA was an expert source on animal treatmenet. I was pointing out to YOU how they are extremists and even YOU wouldn't follow all their advice.
Why do you alway smake such unfounded claims? Such as "because you cant back up your own argument" and "you have NO evidence". I have done nothing but provide evidence and backup my argument with first hand experience. Stop being irrational and actually look at the discussion for a minute.
Edit @ Pete and your little "wow, you fell down and got hurt?! derf derf def" comment at Holly is bratty and immature and doesn't belong in this dicussion. I never said falling down doesn't hurt. I just said, barring extenuating circumstances, it wont kill you. You wanna turn this into a war of sarchasm, go for it. But I assure you that you have a better chance of winning a battle of logic than of wits.
