Having grown up and gone to church with the Shepherds I cannot blame them for being terrified of what could happen. They are good people. Salt of the earth and down to earth. They have never set out to hurt their livestock or anyone else for that matter, but the Utah County Sheriff's office has not been able to put a stop to the arsonists who have torched many many hay and straw stacks in south Utah County. Therefore, I doubt they will ever catch up to terrorists such as these. The Shepherds and all those in the south Utah County area who still make their living in agriculture deserve more protection than they are given. Let's hope these domestic terrorists don't go through with their promises.

Lets hope the Shepherds, the real legalized animal terrorists here, who force animals to live in unspeakable misery for profit, can receive some moral direction concerning their obligation to animals from their glorified "church" going". Simply providing humane conditions for their "commodities" would be a good start, and a dose of compassion for the more vulnerable creatures who suffer to provide Shepherd's income.
