A friend sent this to me, it is on FB. The guy who posted it is a hardcore anti. Just look at the words he used to describe this man.

Joseph Buddenberg
January 24 at 5:34 PM

Another dead fur farmer.
Mark A. Gutman, 69, of Rome, OH died December 23rd, 2024 at his home.
He started Grand River Fur Exchange in 1976. He spent 48 years torturing and killing native wildlife for their fur. His farm also doubled as a urine farm, where he collected the urine of animals for sale as trapping lures.
After his death, Ashtabula County authorities seized his animals. Grand River Fur Exchange dies with Mark Gutman.

R.I.P. Mark......rot in (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) joseph

well I guess a man can have his opinions. And since it an anti spin can post it on his own fb or social media. Is it Low class, lack any type of respect or tact absolutely. Would you ever expect any less for people on the left?

Why did the county seiz his animals?

just guessing but they may not get feed or taken care of well if at all when left to someone else but just a guess.

No respect for the dead nor the living !

I will feel honored if my passing gets the attention of the antis.

Joseph Buddenberg, the loser that wrote that, is a criminal terrorist. He and his girlfriend went on a crime spree and let out a bunch of mink from mink farms, vandalized, glued locks, etc etc. He spent several years in prison. He's out now, and still very active in animal rights circles. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he or his cronies monitors this site.

I hope he gets to save an animal with rabies and doesn't find out for a while.

ANIMAL LIBERATION PRESS OFFICE, 825-C, MERRIMON AVENUE, suite 121, Asheville N.C. 28804, If anyone's interested.

I would bet that he doesn't allow insects/rodents in his house...hypocritical if so.

Just another fool that sane people have to tolerate in the world. I live due east of Rome, OH and had family that lived there at one time.

The AR people absolutely monitor us. Probably more than we monitor them.

I support free speech. What surprises me is that stuff is getting traction. I do not understand how people can not see that we humans are also part of the natural world. Its our role in the scheme of things to be predators. No different than the role of lions or wolves. The difference is we can think. We are the only species that can positively impact our environment deliberately. Its our role to care for the natural world. We are the only species capable of it.

They are unaware just how cruel the natural world is. Utilizing animals to benefit us is not anymore unethical than it is when a weasel kills a jackrabbit or a coyote kills a calf.

What is unethical is destroying that environment. Something animals do. From mountain lions sitting on a water hole during a drought and killing a fresh animal every night to muskrats eating everything in a pond and then starving or becoming prey when they leave. animals are not capable of seeing the damage they do. Killing that lion and trapping those rats is a positive.

We humans can keep populations healthy through selective harvest. Less of a pendulum swing from almost no animals to overpopulation.

Farming animals to feed ourselves is not unethical. How did we get so far removed from the natural world that they believe its unethical?

I’m wondering this as well. After he died, did anyone take care of the place?

RIP Joe.

This^^^

x2, wish I had known him.

I hope to have the privilege of meeting Joey sometime in an isolated region….

So do I all of this garbage is sadly related to just how well off this country is you don’t see such sentiments in third world countries where they know what it means to actually be hungry and not just ready for your next fast food meal

You know if you do find and thump him he will still be an anti? Will still make unbelievably obnoxious remarks about consumptive users of wildlife? He will also have you arrested and sue you. Real bad idea IMO.
