Thousands of Blackbirds Fall From Sky Dead
Dan East writes "In a fashion worthy of a King or Hitchcock novel, blackbirds began to fall from the sky dead in Arkansas yesterday. Somewhere between 4,000 and 5,000 birds rained down on the small town of Beeb, Arkansas, with no visible trauma. Officials are making wild guesses as to what happened — lightning strike, high-altitude hail, or perhaps trauma from the sound of New Year's fireworks killed them."

Doubt that, turns out the same day 100,000 Drum Fish died the same day. Only Drum fish not any of the other fish that are in the same waters. Unless of course the tornado selectively took only black birds and only drum fish up into the air....
A loop, by its nature, continues. If that didn't make sense, start reading this sentence again.
Which is precisely why pork tastes so good.. so we will breed them, and protect them as a species......
After all.. pork, beef and fowl are amoung the most numerous animals there are.. thanks to their tastiness!
Most people who try veganism get horribly sick
There are hundreds of millions of people on the Indian subcontinent alone who eat no meat - none whatsoever - from the moment they are born until the moment they die some 80 years later. They do not get horribly sick. They do not "wind up" eating fish or chicken. They live healthy, balanced, and lengthy lives.
Fact.
If libertarians are so opposed to effective government, why don't they all move to Somalia?
Erm, apparently there was physical trauma (see here and here). They're still guessing, but leaning towards stress from fireworks, although lightening or hail haven't been ruled out.
This is far from the first time anything like this has been recorded.
