In reply to the discussion: Cornell students kill bear, bring it into residence hall to skin and butcher [View all]WhiskeyGrinder

You obviously never lived in ANY of the dorms or apartments I did.
People get evicted for loud stereos, blocking the walkway, pets where not allowed, all kinds of things that might seem kind of trivial to you but that the landlords have learned will cause big trouble if not dealt with strictly.
Yeah, my comment was more along the lines of "goes against the lease" was specific or landlord discretion.

People who own or manage buildings generally have contracts for tenants to sign that have real legal teeth. In any disagreement between you and a landlord, bet on the landlord.
Man, don't I know it.
PS: I will never eat dinner at your house, no matter how grand or how freely offered, or how hungry I might be.
okay
If you think freshly killed animals are "clean", I hope for your family's sake that you keep your life insurance paid up.
What I said was that the *meat* is, if the animal is healthy, and in most cases even if it's not. People clean animals, process the meat and cook it right there in the field all the time.
BTW, inspection of factory meat is done because cows are brought in with all manner of diseases and parasites, and no small amount of shit clinging to them. Not every cow that enters a slaughter house does so under its own power, or even still breathing. (Yeah, it's illegal -- but if the inspector looks away ...)
The cows bring in all manner of diseases and parasites because they're raised in industrial conditions, which ...was my point.Edit history

OP
Will they hang the body parts to decorate the walls of their dorms in the customary way?

Even dorm kitchens must have some enforcement of sanitation laws. This was unbelievably stupid. nt

My question was more about "sanitation laws" than the specificity of a dorm.

AFAIK most people do this partly in the field and outside at home, but not in a kitchen which is not their property ...

"not in a kitchen which is not their property" -- again, my question is more about "sanitation laws."

Once you've field-dressed it, it's just raw meat. If you've skinned it, you won't smell anything but raw meat.

It was a wild animal--Not in a shared/communal kitchen. Parse each word in that sentence.

You're being cute. I think you and every other person in this board know exactly what I mean.

As I say, it was a rude move. But it's not like a chlorine leak or black mold.

A little consideration would not have gone awry. Good eating on a bear.

The hell with that. No Cornell student is starving. This was way out of line.

Well, there were plenty of people upset by their actions, so your opinion is not universal.
