Notice of course that the point is totally ignored.

Once again, the point is totally ignored. Anybody here see a difference
between bison shit and cow shit in the creek? Me neither. Of course, it
is obviously because the poster above is an expert in shit perhaps ...

Ignorance is bliss, you must be having an orgasm. Pray tell, just how
are cattle not part of nature? Hmmmm?

Snicker and rolling on thge floor. Point, set, and match.
This stupid eco-asshole is part of those nitwits that somehow believes
that man is not part of nature.
Of course, this is nothing more than the projected self-hate that these
"kreatures" have for themselves, self-hate that seems pretty well deserved.
Well, echo-mush-head, man IS part of nature, no more and no less than any
other creature on this planet.
Wallow in your self-hate -- you deserve it.
