    I saw something yesterday on that cause I guess we could smell it up here too. Seems odd to me but I didn’t read it and when I went back it was gone.

    I just found out that some of the money being sent to Ukraine is for funding pension programs. The EPA, FEMA said they shouldn't be spending $ helping in East Palestine. I don't think I need to say any more.

    Imagine the good the government could do for THIS country if we cut all cash flow to other countries. All of them. You never hear any politicians talk about this idea.

    Let's be very careful with the posts in this thread and remember we need to keep the political chatter off this forum. It is in the rules we all agreed to. We do not like warning folks nor do we like closing threads but it can be done if need be.

    If anyone would like to start a PM discussing the ridiculousness of the idea that you're a R__ian stooge if you don't support what's going on in the big picture, I'm all ears ;)

    Point is, East Palestine needs help and are not getting it from the feds.

    I thought my comment was pretty politically neutral. As in, not choosing sides, but more stating what I think most people would agree with. Take care of us before the rest of the world. I apologize if that wasn't how it was received.

    I guess this chemist doesn't want to be known? there is no such thing as msds since 2016, it is GHS now.
    I already said the same thing, this is going to be around for a long time and consequences are not going to be seen for some
    time. The ones suffering now probably have not washed down the surfaces like needs to be done.
    ppl like that are just jumping on the bandwagon to increase their youtube income.. offering nothing to the conversation that hasn't been said already.

    Egg, not your post as it's still there, your post would have been deleted if it didn't follow the TOS unlike some other posts here. Mods/Admins are at work or making dinner or whatever and reported posts sometimes aren't seen for awhile.

    Not sure which one he's responding to but 100% agree with him, this site is not politically aligned thus politically charged posts get deleted.

    Guys and gals I'm pretty sure most of yinz know where I stand on these issues plaguing our country, trust me I'm with the majority of yinz. But we try, as mods and admins here, to keep the peace and it's very hard to keep the peace when these posts get political. Yinz are more than welcome to start PM's to discuss those touchy subjects but as for the main forums, we will be keeping the politics out as best we can Don't be offended or angry, you have to understand how frustrating it is for our voluntary mods and staff here to clean up these posts and keep the peace......it's misery.

    Please understand if your posts get deleted, it's nothing personal. That's the foundation of this site (politics wrecks it).

    A 6 week old calf died supposedly , in the last week or so. I think they are having an autopsy done on that and if I hear anymore I'll update it.
    I heard about it over the weekend but I was waiting on more information, nothing on larger livestock yet but I feel that we won't see issues until late summer/fall?
    not a vet so I don't honestly know, just a guesstimation.
    Columbiana Humane society is keeping a record of animal fatalities, I'm curious if it will be kept public? I'm not sure if it is public right now besides tidbits of info they release.
    It really looks like they are just trying to show they are doing something without actually doing anything. What a clusterfsck this is and will continue to be..

    Thank you for explaining. I wasn't aware anything was deleted as I normally don't go back and reread a thread. Denny's post right after mine had me thinking I was the straw that broke the camel's back so to speak. Lol.
