This guy took the time to rescue a calf stuck in a canal.
Motorcyclist Johan Gray has become a viral sensation for this video showing him rescuing a calf from a canal in South Africa. Gray was wearing a helmet cam while qualifying for an upcoming endurance race known as the Amageza Run.

Great stuff. I'd hope everyone would make the same effort. I'd like to think I would have done the same thing.

I feel most bikers are good guys and would do the right thing.

I don't carry a tow strap now but I think I'll get one!
This is just plain cool. I used a strap like this once to help pull a calf having trouble being born but never to rescue one!
Holy cow, that was nice work on his part.

I think he was going to molest it after the camera is off...

This is sick and twisted and IMO uncalled for. The hero in this story risked his skin to save a life and deserves our praise. Why would you cast shadows and depravity on goodness and kindness? Did you really mean to bring this fetish to the forum. What opened the door for you to want to share this perversion?
Easy Skeeter. Can't you see it was a joke?

Joke? What's funny about it?
Can I see it? Unfortunately I can. His words paint a picture I can see clearly. Do you need me to paint you one you can see?
Words in this case are a revelation and a window into the soul of the man. If a man can think of molesting a baby calf and think it's funny, would it be just as funny to think of molesting a child? If he thinks it, will he act on it?
What if that was your child... helpless and lost with no one to protect them from harm. Maybe someone will come along to pull them from the ditch, only to molest them.
Now what is funny about that?
What do you think of the man?
Do you really like the way he thinks?
Are you just like him?

I'm sorry Loafer that this thread got twisted. It started out good.
I’m with Skeeter on this. There are some things that are simply in offensively poor taste and which cannot be countenanced, should not be tolerated, and are too unseemly to be waved off as jokes.

See what you get Dave for recognizing Mike was Joking?? Some don't like that style of joking because it hurts their feelings. Feelings.......... nothing more than feelings........trying to forget my..... oops had an emotional moment .. This is how California started to go down hill. :wtf:

Although I can tell this miffed you, please don't speak on "our" behalf. It's just that government tends to give away my tax dollars on "our" behalf and I'd rather speak for myself. To Wompus it wasn't a story that moved him emotionally. You should not criticize him or anyone that doesn't share your feelings. :shrug: Frankly I thought of Veal.... :tup:
Geez,
I'm going got go back to Brad's turd posting.

Took another bucket full turd this morning!!
I thought the veal comment was funny. Heck I might have been thinking BBQ had I found the calf. But Mike's comment wasn't aimed at himself and his thinking, as was yours, Brad. Mike impugned the guy who rescued the calf by attributing a tawdry motive to him. I see that differently (Which of course means you are wrong and I am right. Just suck it up and admit it! ;))

"Tawdry" is a word used quite often in San Francisco. :wtf:
You know Dan the video only showed the front half of the calf riding on the motorcycle?!! :shrug:

Gee willikers unkle Ben, your from Texas and you think that was in bad taste?
Remember what they always say about Texas..
"Texas, where men are men and sheep are nervous"!
I guess when a Baptist molests a child it's funny, but when you mention a cow you gets offended...
Put on your big girl panties and learn to take a joke!!!
I only have one serious bone in my body... OK, it's not realy a bone..........

California has been going down the shitter for awhile. Sooner or later, like any other ponzi scheme, they were bound to run out of other people's money. The problem is, now that things have gone bad, many people that favored such ponzi schemes are moving elsewhere to spread their joy and philosophy.

Vermont is mostly transplanted people. looking for the ultimate lifestyle, then they do all they can to make it like the place they left. Go figure?
There is a large population of sex offenders who can go undetected as such, in the many some towns here. Not to mention the influx of lesbians and homosexuals, that try to blend in with the trees. Can't figure out why they think it's neceesary for me to know their sexual preference.

That's the progressive's bitter rub. If they want equality and freedom, just live life as anyone else and not give a crap what other's think. It's another think to push views/agenda on others in order to get acceptance and approval, which is different than tolerance. They have a lot to learn. As far as sex offenders, I have a special place at the bottom of a deep hole for them.
