| Can you believe this??? One of the cities here in TN has told the farmers that they can not use city water to feed/water their livestock!!!! we have had a few weeks with no rain and over 100 degree weather so we have had a lot of water restrictions. But to tell people that they cannot give their animals water????? that to me is just insane. several of the farmers have refused to comply with this...saying "how would you like to go without water???" unbelievable. i can't believe they could actually say something like that. i'd tell them to kiss my ____ and take my animals elsewhere.

| Wow that is extreme. I dont think farmers will comply to that. Now I can see where they ask people to not water their lawns or use excess amounts of water

| Oh wow, I can see that meeting a lot of resistance, in a way its animal abuse! Bet ya PETA won't like to hear that! How can the town be so thoughtless? I know that humans are technically more important for water consumption, but animals cannot be made to suffer either! I hope you guys get lots of rain soon! Its hot here today too, over 95 and very humid! They have a heat advisory out so I guess the boys are staying in today in the air conditioning!

| That's ridculous. I'd water them like I always do, and take the fine.
