Is 4-H Creating Terrorists?

The question is simple: is 4-H, an organization established to provide meaningful opportunities for all youth and adults to work together to create sustainable community change, creating domestic terrorists and serial killers? Nah, just kids learning life lessons.

They’re learning hard work, patience, determination, math, science, teamwork, commitment, leadership and communication, just to name a few. Not to mention, they learn from hands-on experience where their food comes from while gaining an understanding of the hard work needed to grow and harvest food.

The list of notable 4-H alumni is long and impressive. Pulitzer prize winner John Updike, Olympic gold medal winner Stacy Dragila, Reggie White, Jimmy Carter, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Nettles, Trisha Yearwood, Dolly Parton, and Johnny Cash. I don’t see any serial killers listed.

Animal agriculture is an integral part of the whole life cycle. Bottom line: you can’t do one without the other.

For those in the dark about why I referenced terrorist and serial killers watch this the following video:
