Save Bill and Lou, an introduction; by Edward Huse, for VINE.

This is a video dedicated to Bill and Lou, by Edward Huse for VINE. The young woman is misquoted where the subtitle says (in minute 4:09) that "our mascots are famous", what she is actually saying is that "our mascots are eagles", this will be corrected in the next edit. Quoting the copy - "Bill and Lou were the working oxen for Green Mountain College for 10 years. Students, faculty, and community members alike came to love them over the years. They were marched in the school's parade, and widely seen as the school mascot. Then, Lou got hurt and the school decided to kill them both, turn them into hamburger meat, and to serve them in the school cafeteria. VINE Sanctuary in Springfield VT offered to provide a happy retirement home for both Bill and Lou, but were turned down by the school. Since then, the outrage over the prospect has grown into an international movement. On October 26th, 2012, a group of protesters channeled their pain and anger into action. This is a video of some of the events that day, with some nice footage of Bill and Lou taking it easy." Please join the SAVE BILL AND LOU group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/29450...

someone pointed out that the girl speaking with a subtitle at minute 4:09 is actually saying "eagles" not "famous" as I have written, I will go over it again more closely and edit if necessary, thanks.

This dumb bitch is disgusting...She has no value for life, but her own...Humans...She never does clearly explain her wicked desire to eat meat...She is vile, heartless, ignorant, & could afford to take on a vegan diet...She is weak, & I hope she changes her mind & heart...Otherwise, I would like to know her opinion on, instead...frying up herself, or her family...her children...why not?? Tell me, why not??

[Susanne Collins]

No two ways about it it looks bad to slaughter them with sanctuary being offered

[Barbara Hobens]

Let him go to the sanctuary. What fools. White dress woman is brainwashed and needs to transfer from Green Mountain College to get an education - - at least to learn how to gather information, process it, and think on her own.

lololololololololololololololo­lolololololoololololololololol­olol go right ahead, show up at my doorstep, but you won't like whats waiting for you behind the door.

[thewild]

you realize our mascot is an eagle? we're the EAGLES not the oxen that work on the farm. you're all ignorant.

[Conor McNamara]

these activists are the cult! If its not done this way, the animals are going to be slaughtered more inhumanely by factory farms! people eat meat! I've raised animals i've loved and slaughtered them when the time came. There are more important steps to this battle your fighting and your fighting the wrong people! They actually give a shit about the animals more than you do.

[Conor McNamara]

These kids actually care for the farm animals, when was the last time any of these activists did this? You need to understand that this is GOOD AGRICULTURE. If you are fighting them, you are fighting the animals. The animals were raised in good hands. You all just want something to fight for and feel good about yourselves. You've never got your hands dirty and milked a cow or plowed with team of draft animals. Don't be so hostile when you're completely naive to what they're doing!

[maggie3242]

Jeez these students are mentally deranged. The whole world is up-in-arms about this and they appear completely brainwashed, they can't see the bigger picture. With any luck it will be the demise of The Green Mountain Cult.

[AutumnNicoleChapman]

How so?

[jomeo18]

Don't forget your iPhone to record it. And stop back to let us know how it went.

[jomeo18]

The college IS NOT sustainable whether they live or die!! If you don't eat Bill and Lou, another couple thousand pounds of meat will be DELIVERED to the school!  OMG...LOL

[jomeo18]

The girl in the white dress is an idiot! I can't believe the college let her speak on their behalf. This is a PR nightmare for the college. Hopefully, they'll save face by deciding to do the right thing.
