		<description>[...] For the record, I smoke, I eat meat products, and I love to shoot a good protest now and then. Nevertheless, with what&#8217;s been happening over the last couple of months, I can&#8217;t help but think people will believe anything they hear/read. The beef issue is complex, and I won&#8217;t try to simplify it. For in-depth and up-to-date coverage of the beef issue, head on over to the Marmots Hole. [...]</description>

		<description>Grammar has a curious way of becoming irrelevant in one's mind after an all-night session of literature research.  :-D  And don't ask why I'm doing one during summer break... the answer depresses me.</description>

		<description>Also, &lt;blockquote&gt;. . . How are beefs ‘exported’?&lt;/blockquote&gt; You mean "how is beef exported?"  That is like writing "Three troops were killed in action today."  It is not grammatically correct.</description>

		<description>i don't know how English teachers never attained 5-15 teacher status.

or did they?

I wouldn't know.

the closest thing to a native English teacher to me was a US Army officer and his wife, also US Army, teaching me English under the table, for mucho dinero.</description>

		<description>some dude obviously has never gone to primary school in Korea.  

teachers there say something, and you think God or your parent has spoken to you.

I wasn't there though, when teachers began to be active in politics, however there was a teacher who shut the doors and windows and drew the curtains and revealed to 6th graders the "truth" from his view about Chun Do Hwan and where people go, when they be bad with him.  Sam-something kyo yook dae.

since it was word of mouth at the time, he had balls to do what he did.

teachers in the states also like to blabber about politics to young children in the classroom.

you folk are dishonest.  You criticize liberal teachers swaying political minds of the young in Korea, but

say nothing about US teachers doing the same, in the classrooms, when that's clearly, clearly, clearly 

NOT THEIR JOB.</description>

		<description>2. Does a cow older than 30 months produce lower quality meat?

Well, this one is answerable. It does have an inferior taste, and according to the FDA it has a higher change (however small) of transmitting BSE. It is banned in the US for human consumption.</description>

		<description>So, all these different information sludged around has confused me greatly...

1. How are beefs 'exported'?  I'm guessing it's post-slaughter, but would the meat have already been partitioned and categorized, or would the meat be in the carcass, 'mommy-why-is-that-cow-upside-down-inside-out' format?

2. Does a cow older than 30 months produce lower quality meat?

3. Why the fuck are the middle school students there protesting?  Don't they have midterms this time of the year?

4. What the hell is the police thinking, arresting a middle school student (as opposed to sending her home or contacting parents)?

"Korea, given it’s lack of pastoral land, doesn’t deserve (or need) a beef market"

Don't you mean beef industry?  I mean, you can live in a 100% mountainous region and still crave beef.  And yeah, considering what other aspects of FTA can do for Korea's bigger, more important industries, stirring sh*t up for the sake of the tiny beef industry is pretty stupid.</description>

		<description>They'll be eating it soon enough and the hysteria will end.
Months from now, they won't even acknowledge that they behaved so insanely.

Then, some of the left wing nuts will pay someone off to contaminate some US beef.
Somebody will get sick and the insanity starts again.</description>
