With the strong backing of Democrats and environmentalists, and in an effort to control the release of methane, the California legislature has just enacted rules to regulate cow farts! Were the cows first consulted? Did the animal-rights crowd sign off on this? Will offending cows be sent directly to the packing houses? And if the state comes after cows today, will we humans be the next target? Will Mexican restaurants be put out of business? Will this campaign against the emission of offending gasses extend to presidential debates? Is this just more of the detritus from Bernie Sanders’ campaign?
