Ouch, this is bad timing;

A bunch of DSU athletes involved in a huge brawl. Then the losing side breaks into a home for revenge. When do the guns start coming out? Thanks for keeping our community safe, DSU. I'm glad you are more concerned about recruiting these "athletes" from south central LA so you can win division titles rather than recruit decent kids willing to work hard AND BE THANKFUL for an education (a free one at that).

SCREW YOUR STADIUM. My mind is made up. You've adulterated this community enough with your criminal athletes. Giving them a $16 mil stadium is a slap in the face to the community. You've raised $10 mil, that's plenty. Build your damn stadium. Keep my money out of your criminal enterprise. Reply...

I think that if the college quit recruiting drug dealers for athletes, then maybe I would be behind the project. It's no secret that DAC 10 gets the NCAA leftovers and don't even do a background check. I'm stil paying on my student loans, and these "athletes" get a free ride for bringing drugs to our town?

Once the college actually starts recruiting local talent again, then I will be behind everything they do. STOP RECRUITING CRIMINALS!! Its embarassing to the community. Reply...

There is a new game in town. It is called THE ARAPA HOUR. Every Thursday at 6:00 P.M. Pacific Time on American Voice Radio, they come on the air with exciting guests to talk about the USDA's NAIS government land grab (disguised as animal disease protection) to fund the national debt. Next week, Oct. 17, they will have a lawyer on as the guest to give us the legal ramifications regarding one's signature on a Premises Registration and what this means to the unsuspecting property owners. What is a premise vs. property? What is a stakeholder vs. a property owner and other subjects which mark the cornerstones to this fraud moving upon the land.
Tune in and give a listen, and tell a friend to do the same. This is one hot issue.

Steve you are so naive...
"Get with it ranchers, animal id is coming whether you like it or not. Our trading partners demand it and when bird flu breaks out our citizens will call for it."...
Our nations problems stem from bowing to the WTO, UN, UNESCO and all the other organizations that spew globalism then tread on our bill of rights and our soverignty. Animal ID is just the beginning of trading our freedom for the pat on the back from the world's elite.
You need to do a little research on Sustainable Development, Agenda 21, UNESCO, NAFTA and all the other "trade agreements" that were made that are selling us out as a Nation Reply...

Get with it ranchers, animal id is coming whether you like it or not. Our trading partners demand it and when bird flu breaks out our citizens will call for it. And unlike some previous comments the answerr is a resounding NO! The current traceback system is garbage, last mad cow outbreak we were only able to traceback 10 percent of the original herd!!!!

Ditto and more ditto to the above posts. I would like to add that NAIS comes from the UN through the WTO. If you read Agenda 21, the 400+ page plan the UN has for us, you will begin to realize that total control of the food and water is necessary to DEPOPULATE not only the animals but 80% of the population. Now People, THAT MEANS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. The UN took over the farms in Africa and look at the famine there. This is what will happen when our farm animals are depopulated by the USDA and our state Dept. of Agricultures (who by the way have taken billions of dollars from the USDA to implement this program to get by Congress).

Wake up and start studying the Communist Manifesto, go to the communist website, go to the NIAA (National Institute of Animal Agriculture), the SPP and Nafta Superhighway along with the Delphi Process (so you can be prepared to withstand the commies ,UN plants, that are already in your community and making changes in our local governments).

Tulsa, Ok. is in the thick of change ala UN. They have their Vision 2025 and are now going for the 700 million ChannelsProject. There are buzz words of the UN being used as SUSTAINABLE, STAKEHOLDERS, COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING, SMART GROWTH, VISIONARY PROCESS, MAINTAINING A STRONG DIVERSIFIED LOCAL ECONOMY, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE, URBAN REDEVELOPMENT, CONSENSUS AND PARTNERSHIP BUILDING. The goal is to get the community leveraged and when they cannot meet the payments to the World Bank the bank will rightfully have control of your private property. Private Property-UN definition-formerlya Right protected by the U.S. Bill of Rights, now a priveledge granted to communitarian citizens under strict scientific and governmental control. Private Farms: an ancient free American term, used prior to the Millenium to define privately owned farms, balanced into oblivion by corporate designed environmental collectives.

If this isn't enought to scare the pants off you the you are already a Communist/UN sypathizer.

NAIS has not one thing to do with security, disease, or any of the other excuses we have been given. It is for control, pure, plain and simple.

Do YOU want the only suppliers of your foods to be the big industries like Monsanto, Tyson, Cargil, etc., where this so called "healthy, modern farming" consists of over medication, crowded conditions, genetic modifications and giving animals hormones that are harmful to both the animal and the final consumer...YOU!

Do you want your organic foods to be organic, or what the USDA and the big industries are now advertising as organic, as I can say they are two completely different things.

Do you want to see massive "depopulation" of healthy animals, because the USDA claims it is the only way to control disease? Even when the illness is completely curable (including the affected animal)? Or worse, have them come in to depopulate healthy animals on the speculation that they may be sick? Oh sure, they'll test, but after they kill, not before. (And we have already seen this done a number of times.) And if your animals were healthy all along...? Well, too bad for you and the innocent animals that were slaughtered for no good reason, but the USDA doesn't want to hear this, nor do they care.

And as far as trace back. Well, seems to me they have been doing pretty well without NAIS. And if you remember, all of the problems with tainted meats (that I'm currently aware of), were due to the conditions of the large, over crowded feed lots, the slaughterhouses and/or the processors, not the farm.

Do not let either state or federal governments sell you this bill of damaged and dangerous goods. As I have stated, NAIS is for control.

And as far as national security, if the government was REALLY that concerned about national security, we would not have tens of thousands of illegal aliens in this country, with more coming in every day, and then making excuses for them as to why they are here and need to be here. This just makes the whole NAIS is needed for security argument look like one, big, sick joke.

But, NAIS is more than a sick joke. It's a nightmare and one more step nearer to control over the food by the government and a few big conglomerates. And it's time that the people woke up.

NAIS helps the huge agricorporations (eg Monsanto, Cargill) by meeting the requirements being imposed by the WTO without having to shoulder the costs. They are allowed to track their 1,000s-10,000s of animals with a single tag/chip and only have to pay for a single report each time the group is moved. Small farmers, homesteaders, hobby farmers, and 4-H'ers have to pay to tag/chip and report each individual animal and their movements.
To have the government state that I need to register my property with them in order to raise animals to feed my family is foriegn to what I was taught about the relationship between the citizens of our republic and the government. Reply...

Where is the small farmer and homesteader in all this? Was he even considered?
Somehow, I doubt it. Not when Kansas State University did a study and found out that NAIS will cost the average farmer well over $1500 a year (based on a 250 head cattle ranch costing $2086-with tags at $2.25 each). How many small farmers can afford it? How many will be forced out of business? How many peripheral industries will be driven out? I.E. feed stores, farriers, rodeos and fairs? How will the illiterate (approx. 10% of the population) do NAIS? How about those whose religions NAIS tramples?
NAIS will do nothing for animal health, except, perhaps, cause things to worsen. When the local vet is turned into a spy, reporting to the Government any infractions of NAIS that he comes across; how many farmers will call him when their animals are ill?
NAIS was designed by "The Industry", without thought for anything but profit for themselves.
The USDA has done very well in tracing back diseases without NAIS-just look to the recent e.coli outbreaks.
The "Industry" is the cause of 90+% of all the diseases out there from 'mad cow' (By turning cows into cannibals) to Avain Flu-by their factory confinement operations. They are the ones who should be tracked and pay for NAIS.

This is ridiculous!!! There is already adequate trace back for livestock, heck even for vegetables as the latest spinach ecoli scare proved!! This will be an unnecessary burden to all the small non warehouse style livestock owner, in other words the mom n' pop farms that make this nation and offer an alternative to mass produced, hormone injected meats!! If you want the nation to be safer, spend this money on securing our borders! Have a chip in ol' Bessie isn't going to do anything for my sense of security when untold numbers of illegals are crossing our borders each and every day!!!!!!

Be sure you do your homework about NAIS National Animal Identification BEFORE you sign up! Personally I don't like the idea of having a "license" to farm. To pay a fee/tax to have the right to be self-sufficient. This should be market driven, not driven down the throats of backyard farmers and granny with a laying hen. It may be voluntary NOW, but in 2009 the plan is to make it MANDATORY for everyone even if you have just ONE cow, pig, horse, chicken, goat, bison etc. www.nonais.org Reply...

National Animal Identification System (NAIS) is not about disease or national security, progessive farming, smart producing. It is not voluntary in spite of the use of the word. NAIS is about a license to farm and any one who thinks differently is deluded. It is so funny that the only people who are in favor of NAIS are the ones to stand to gain financially from it. And now, the students being brainwashed. It's terrible. Don't you see it?

Mr and Mrs Non-animal owning Consumer, what do you have that a federal agency is going to want to keep control of.

I hope the Senator is voted out today.

Nonais.org contains the truth, unbiased, about NAIS.

Above, Elwood said, "A Choice? - Do you have a "choice" to kill a child after it has been born? - DO you have a "choice" to kill another human being at all?"

I totally agree. Listen up liberals. The only people we have a right to kill live in Iraq and therefore don't count. Our one true God said "thou shalt not kill, unless you're in a country that might have a terrorist hiding in the bushes. Then you can kill whoever you want. Even children." It's in the Bible, people, look it up. Deuteronomy I think. Reply...

Define life-science says an atom is a lifeform-oops you just made a choice to kill the next ghandi or einstein-thats alot of power for one person to have. To tell the world they could have had another amazing person, but you made the choice to kill the next president or world renowned leader. Congratulations your choice just effected millions!
* Maybe Roe should have been aborted-Good thing for you no one made that choice.*Maybe I would be in favor of killing just that one. I guess someones choice might have effected your freedom to choose?????????? Reply...

There is one God, and if you are pregnant guess what that is a living being in there.
Who would get excited about being pregnant if it were a dead thing inside you. We get excited because there is a life that is part of us inside there.
We may have gotten that way in a number of ways that we aren't proud of but none the less a life is a life.
Abortion is death no matter how you put it or for what reason you try to justifi it.
Thou shalt not kill is God's comand. Those who hurt the children are the ones that will face the harshest judgment from God.
It's sad that people fight more for animals and trees than our unborn children.
My question is? Do you know Jesus? Read his word then tell me where it says kill your unborn children.

May God forgive those whom are trying to play God. Reply...

Should we all have the "choice" to be able to end the life of our children; either in or out of the womb; or half way out? Reply...
