This Dimwitt owner of this dairy farm should not be aloud to own cows ever again. Pure carelessness on his part to let something like this happen. This could be the work of some sinister people with another attack on the food supply. It is well known they want people to starve to death
I know it is Texas and they do everything big there, but that’s a helluva BBQ. Not to dismiss the seriousness of it, but at some point, you have to laugh to keep from crying.)
