Friday Hound Blogging

You know, we feel we owe you an apology. No, not for the amount of time you spend reading this blog, that's the result of your own lack of a proper upbringing, but for the mistaken impression we may have given you that the overlords are at the center of the greyhound exploitation racing industry. Now it's true they are a major component in the heartless mistreatment of innocent animals sport, but there is another group of people without whom even the overlords would be powerless to inflict pain, suffering and meaningless death on helpless greyhounds maintain their industry.

We speak, of course, of the rubes. In our defense we have to say that we haven't totally ignored them, but aside form the occasional disquisition into their dearth of common sense, rationality and the intelligence god gave a turnip bulb, we have remained essentially silent on the matter.

But wait a minute Ironicus, you say. Are you telling us there are creatures on this planet that possess even lower levels of brain functionality than the overlords themselves?  People who willingly participate in this wholesale barbarity called greyhound racing and who support it with their few remaining dollars? Is that what you expect us to believe Ironicus, because we find that rather incredible.

Yep, that about covers it. And not only that, they think they can make a living at it.

$500 PER DAY AVERAGE TAKE HOME GUARANTEED RESULTS

OK, think about that for a moment. If it were even remotely possible to make $500 per day betting on greyhounds using any sort of system, or method, or by reading chicken bones, don't you think people would be flocking to the tracks with the system, or method, or chicken bones grasped tightly in their gullible little hands?
I developed the system via trial and error.  It took me approximately 100 hours over the course of about six months.
Oh. Well, excuse us. We didn't realize your system had undergone such an intensive R&D period. One hundred hours--that's like twice the amount of time they spent planning the moon missions, right?
My system will teach you how to easily handicap the field, which bets to make and how to manage your money.  It does not matter if you are a beginner or an expert, my system is for you.  It’s EASY!
Now this kind of makes sense. After all we're talking about people who want to invest in the suffering of animals because they think they can profit from callousness and cruelty. It has to be easy because anything more complicated than flipping a coin is probably beyond them.
The cost of my system is only $49.95 U.S.
 Ah. Well now we know how he averages $500 a day, huh Allianz?



Allianz is very gentle. He is recovering from a broken leg and is starting to show some playful behavior. He is very sweet and good natured. He is very affectionate and he will follow you like a shadow and nuzzle you. He will press against the other dogs when he is walking with them. He will also nuzzle with the family’s greys. He is a happy tail wagger. He is starting to pick up toys. Allianz would do well in a working family home with well-mannered children, 10 and up. He is good with other dogs of all sizes. He would probably do well as an only dog with a family that has someone home more often. For more information about this dog, and other rescued racing greyhounds looking for homes, go here. If you don't know about the plight of racing greyhounds go here.

Those that know nothing of the Greyhound "industry" will be quite astonished to learn from Ironicus Maximus and the millions of rescuers and adopters trying to save and free these "animal slaves" of organized crime...(you listening DOUG PIZZI?)....that the "system' people like Doug "developed" is famously called "execution on a dime".
("trial and error" being the winners who win , and losers, who are the executed)

So. let me get this straight
.These hoods are selling and distributing steroids, cocaine, 4D meat AND guns?
No wonder Marena Riggins is in Kansas. She's "the farmer" with the ruby red slippers AND the magic wand.

"Addicts" attract "Addicts". Greyhound people are so hooked on sadism that when the dog gets "injected", so do they.
They call it "empathy".

Here we go with "the rubes". Every time we hear that brand of bible-thumping idiot I'm sure we all think of Martin Roper. He, the laugh and a half, bumbling , humiliated "preacher" of the bumpkin dumb-wits. I'm also sure Roper's got his fimngers in prostitution, steroids cocaine and guns. Because that is exactly what goes on in the Greyhound industry. They use these "dogs" for cover. COWARDS!

This week's dumped dog is called "Allianz". Is that another "italian Special"?
I guess these "drop-outs" mean "Alliance".
They can't even spell "Mafia" right.

As far as the rubes, don't you think they're dying off? When they show fans at the track, aren't they usually old, like really old, like one foot in the grave old? Don't most of them struggle with walkers and are sloughing along with oxygen up their noses.
Not to be confused with the trainers who have some white powder up their noses.

These "gangsters" are into the NRA. Is it any wonder Governor Perry of Texas has to hand deliver an urgent message to Obama? He BEGGED for an extra 1000 troops to watch his back at the Mexican border!
You know the old saying. The hand tht feeds it is the hand that gets bitten.
A lot of rattlers now in Texas all due to these Mexican drug cartels. And America is outgunned all because of their NRA.

The NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION should be held accountable for ALL the Mexican kidnappings and consequent "firing squads"!

4H...you know...the 4H YOUTH Clubs?
Get "a load' of this.
Everyone knows the NRA. (The biggest lobbyist being Cox.)
Well, the first 4H camp was held in Randolph County, WEST VIRGINIA....altho' you got TEXAS screaming they were the first in 1910.
The original "pledge" was written by some dude called OTIS HALL in 1918 from KANSAS. And the purpose was to "make public school education more connected to rural youth".
(You know- you get a D, you blow your prof away)
4H PLEDGE
I pledge my head to clearer thinking,
my heart to greater loyalty,
my hands to larger service,
and my health to better living
for my club, my community, my country, and my wworld.
SCARY.
Sounding a bit like Nazi Germany!
"Head, Heart, hands , Health...and all green with a "Clover" for "Irish Luck"...shoot to kill.
NRA's PRESIDENT, Ron SCHMEITIS, from NEBRASKA...and avid hunter (D) and banker (green) and probably a typical racist.
NRA's V.P. is Wayne LaPIERRE.
he's the "go to " guy. He's authored several books on WEAPONRY from SHOOTING to TERRORISM to CRIME.
The best bio is that GEORGE BUSH even thought La Pierre too "scary" Bush resigned his life long membership in the NRA aafter La Pierre called federal firearms agents who nwere involved in RUBY RIDGE , IDAHO (farms) and WACO, TEXAS (assaults)
Oh ya. laPierre, MONSIEUR JACKBOOT himself. A FASCIST just like CHENEY.
Oh Baby. "under one boot " one and all!
And his salary in 2004 was almost a million dollars!!!
So, here's the question with "the hands up".
If this 4H club is meant to sponsor "healthy" how come you got all the companies "unhealthy" making a fortune, sponsoring it?
1. COCACOLA...(cancers, obesity, bad dental health)
2.PHILIP MORRIS (tobacco-chewing for the steroid sports fans and
3. DEERE tractor mowers as well for dicking the immigrants
4.WALMART ...a ton of racism and lawsuits for illegal firings to save millions and cause "happy Faces"
5. KRAFT...processed shit promoting unhealthy lifestyles and full of disese causing ingredients...like $D meat
6. DUPONT...chemicals...all those delightful plastics so fucked up and wanting to "work for you" while destroying the cleanliness of our global environment and safety...and all because Du Pont was FOUNDED in 1802 by GUNPOWDER.
Oh man. it's a greed merry-go-round...just another whirligig and the fact that in 1994, the NRA's annual revenue was 150 million, BEFORE the DRUG CARTELS were TOTALLY their clients?
Ooooooooooo
America. it's how it is "made".

Well Allianz is one more " dog" trashed with broken bones and probably due to being high on cocaine and overbuilt with steroids. So typical. Drug pushers. Like throwing puppies out of car windows on superhighways. They thrill at watching them hit the pavement like live water balloons.
Hey Guccione and kids! We are watching you and have got your gambling numbers.

When" my system" only costs $49.95, compare that to what?
To all the veterinarian bills that recuers and adopters have to pay in order to heal the dog that they wrecked? Intentionally? (like in the thousands?)
What do you expect when you deal with criminals?
A blanket and a lullabye?

Anonymous said...

Like true criminals they not only make you pay for the tax fraud but the animal cruelty that goes with it!
And now, they want to double dick ya with another $49.95!
You know why?
For ANOTHER "fast one".
But this one's in the driver seat and off a dirty back road.
YOU GO BOY!

JEB BUSH....GUNS
MARION HAMMER...GUNS
CHARLIE CRIST...GUNS

Bush was in good with La Pierre.
Hell.
He's in good with the 4H Nazi Youths!
Gov. Jeb Bush was the "straight shooter" that signed six bills into law in a "private ceremony". (accompanied by gun rights femme fatale, MARION HAMMER, who just happened to be the first female President of the NRA)
And by the way, she just HAD to drag her 11 year old grand-daughter with her...violence needs example after all.
The NRA successfully pushed these bills including the measure that creates a public records EXEMPTION FOR CONCEALED WEAPONS PERMITS. Petersen, President of the Florida First Amendment Foundation was horrified! "To protect sensitive information"...why is it sensitive to know who is "carrying"? They become a "priviledged class of people" and then you have "no opportunity for oversight".
THAT is indeed CRIMINAL!
Furhtermore, Bush made it OK "to pack" in National Parks, State Forests, etc.So, this is why the "NEW TIMES" in Miami had a ball with all the criminals hanging out in the EVERGLADES and how a ton of exiled "fringe" Cubans "do" Florida.
Also, the NRA created registration booths in hunting and fishing stores! Convenient "shoot'em ups"!
But best of all.... know what happened with butch MARION HAMMER?
She got involved with CHARLIE CRIST! And between the two of them, she "shot up" to the top into Florida's Woman's Hall of Fame!
She gets REWARDED for being VIOLENT! (and hides it under Eddie Eagle Gunsafe)
And of course, we wonder what CHARLIE CRIST got.
(The NRA got way more than 150 MILL!)

Anonymous said...

You know what I think is totally unforgivable?
The fact that 4,000 orphans are waiting in Florida to be adopted.
Not because no-one wants them. But because Charlie Crist signed a law saying gays could NOT adopt orphans!
Can you even imagine that? Seriously?
Does Charlie Crist think gays are perverted?
Well, if he thinks so, I think Florida is the only state that has the ignorance to flaunt it!
Greyhounds have a better chance at finding a home in Florida than children!
I guess you can "thank" Charlie for that.

The fact Marion Hammer thinks she is giving America "positive exposure" is pretty naive and inane. People all over the world are afraid to come to the USA because of all these guns. And then you have American "queers" forever in closets and it didn't take a Harvey Milk to do that!
Just a bar. Or a job. Or an "Eddie Eagle Gunsafe".

Why doesn't the NRA pay for all the homeless children, kids that can't get one decent meal or even a back to school backpack! The NRA is RICH! They KILL a LOT of BLACKS and LATINOS with "their product" and have left millions of children without parents...nevermoind without brothers and sisters.
Maybe they could use that 150 million bucks on "regret" instead of "repositioning". Unless of course, the NRA is teaching "cleansing".
THANK YOU EDDIE EAGLE GUNSAFE!

Marion Hammer is as much a bitch and fraud as Gayle Manchin.
She plays with your head.
She pulls into the store and sells you her "psychologists".
And they are good.
Why else do you call "murder" EDDIE EAGLE".
Why else do you call "rape", "GUNSAFE".
You know why?
Money.
Marion Hammer.
Whore..
Just like Marena Riggins.
And if you blink you'll miss her looking at you like a target.
"Eddie" from good ol' warring England.
"Eagle" for "hand over heart + 4 H-ing ya "America".
"Gunsafe" like 18th centuries lobotomies.
Listen up you right wing deadheads.
"E" is not for "excellence"
NRA is not "mainstream".
"E" like in Germany, is for "execution".
Sieg Heil.

GLAMORIZATION OF GUNS IN AMERICA....

FACTS:

Chicago has the largest gang populations.
approx. 200 kids get blown away per year and a quarter of them end up dead.
-others are "life=altered" through physical paralyzations, mentally incapacitated and horrendously emotionally traumatized by the savagery of guns...all sold by profit by the NRA.
Just like a war zone. No difference.
Like greyhound racing.
Does Eddie Eagle Gunsafe ever visit these black victims of desperation?
Are you kidding me?
Everyone knows about the dangers of South Chicago.
13,000 weapons were confiscated this year alone, in Chicago!(the GOP says these guns bring them closer to God?) Ask these children who have been crucified by your artillery.
Then, pay these victims for all their misery that you all caused, also like Greyhound Racing...because, you GOP take advantage of America's inequality, malice, and strife and try to make it look commendable to cash it all in...and this is what all these neighborhoods are saying. Imagine that. Not even Mexico! Chicago....thanks to you.
But of course, all you four million members of the NRA preach it with visions and versions of what you choose the Bible to say.
Like Familia.
Like the Taliban.
God help us.

Wow. Seen the quote from Charlie Crist? (You know-that Fl. Governor, self-hater Republican, now Independent, and maybe with the help of us...Democrat and admittingly, Gay?

He says: "marion Hammer has long proven herself to be a worthy recipient of appointment to the florida Women's hall of fame. Throughout her career she has deligently and uncompromisingly pursued issues that are beneficial to women and their families, as well as her community, her state and her nattion."

So. Marion hammer (a "woman"?) worthy "female", a kind of nucleus spinning a warm and fuzzy for "families"? ( I thought we already showed that she is an enabler with criminals in Chicago with selling 13,000 firearms to gangsters.)
Is this supposed to be "bemeficial" and to "families"?
More than fifty DEAD CHILDREN a year, in Chicago, alone, because of the NRA?
(and some of them have taken 22 bullets to their heads)
If this is her "work" for community , state and nation, Charlie crist not only supports her crimes, but wants to even get her exalted because of them! You call this guy a leader?
Well, maybe for the SS.

Dyke and 'penis envy" MARION HAMMER (can you even BELEEEEVE her NAME!!!) is against The Brady Campaign? You see, according to "Frau Hammer" brady, who recieved bullet(s) to his head from a would-be assassin who tried to do reagan, wasn't really in any danger at all. It was just a fluke. (like JFK, Robert kennedy, MLK, and harvey Milk. (but of course, the last guy doesn't count because he is gay!)
In any case, there are so many "law-abiding" citizens you just have to ignore the statistics that America is "out of control".
You know, with dead fiancees, and dead wives, and oh ya, a ton of dead students and a billion of workplace armageddons.
In any case......MARION "BOOM-BOOM" HAMMER -despises McDonald's and all the restaurants and bars (imagine THAT one) who don't allow guns on premises.
After all, it's her "right" to blow a waitress away, or a lesbian who comes onto her at a bar, even if she wants her. (and badly)
KUDOS to Charlie Crist for giving her so much respect.
Now, both openly GAY. (and hating every minute of it)

let's think fucked up( like in shipped off due to poverty and a dysfunctional homelife where marion's mother was a single parent and was forced to go live with Grand Pops. he's the obe who taught her how to shoot and get her ya-ya's out.
Oh ya...A LOT of history with MARION HAMMER and all these Democratic-Republican self-haters and 'do gooders" of the nation. (the nation that is taught, particularly in the South and all those hicked-up MidWest Farmlands to hate "queers". BIG supporters of the NRA.

How can Charlie Crist "the faker", who thinks it's " OK" to let 4,000 orphans, remain orphans (because he doesn't want gay doctors, lawyers, nurses, businessmen, etc, to adopt them) be also "OK" with Florida being the most brutal and corrupt state of Greyhound Racing?
According to Christine Dorchak, President of GREY2K, we in Florida have 13 racetracks ALL losing money besides ALL euthanizing a ton of Greyhounds at whim.
If Governor Charlie Crist is "pleased" with his present lead in politics now, we are certain he will not be "pleased" when we bring to light all his past relationships with all his past loving gay male friends.
The very same ones, may I add, who want to adopt and are ALSO against Greyhound Racetracks!
Dog owners. Gays. Parents.
Tax-payers.
It's called "CARING" Charlie Crist.
It's called "Christian".
