We've been told by the state dept of ag that we have to chain lock our freezers that hold meat because terrorists could contaminate it..... and had to install a STEEL door to the bulding that houses the freezer as a wooden door wasn't enough...

Seriously... once a year we bust out the chains and lock for inspection.

Yea, those stupid Agriculture folks.

Don't they know terrorism only happens in other countries and besides, we have some sort of warning system for that, don't we?

If you think bio terrorism is silly, ask an Indian that got a small pox contaminated blanket if it seemed silly.

Look up Rinderpest or Foot and Mouth.

This is the ruse for the scam.. It's called Terrorist Insurance.. bet you have that too for the business right? If not, I bet it's coming.... I know too many having to carry it.. like a local middle of nowhere pawn shop, and a friend that has a security systems business... He installs cameras in the Harley and car dealers and such...

He was a city boy trying to make his first million lol.

With 20 acres it would seem like 1000 animals wouldn't be much of a challenge.
Now that $1,000,000.00 THATS A CHALLENGE!

Just off the top of my head I'd say you could make that million and all it would take would be a $10,000,000.00 investment.
