#3 Dubya = Washington isn't giving them enuff nuts, thus "justifying" the critters to go Rambo and declare war * For every Milyuhn and Zilyuhn of USGov $$$ spent on NOLA, "40,000 jobs" are created, ergo STARS-N-STRIPES > AP = NOLA area per se has lost circa 180,000 jobs.

#4 This is what happens when you feed wild animals, they come to expect it and if you don't deliver they go Jihad on you ass. :)

#7 Poor little thing. Hopefully the tour of the police and fire stations will take his mind off the attack.

#8 Reminds me of a skit we do in Scouts:

"They're after me! The squirrels are after me!"
"Why?"
"They think I'm nuts!"

#13 A half-dozen ten year old boys armed with pellet guns could fix this pronto. But this is California so they'd be arrested as armed felons.

#14 ditto, Steve. Here in da South, we see squirrels as what they are, RODENTS! Not some cute fuzzy lil' "wildlife" animal to be fed and cuddled.

#15 It just so happens that Cuesta Park is one of the places where my dog and I walk in the morning.

It is a beautiful park. One of the nicest suburban parks around.

Known as "tree rats" in Ga.

#17 When I was a kid, it was common to see a boy with a 22 walking along, sometimes going hunting, and sometimes just going to shoot. We shot rats at the dump, squirrels in the woods, ground hogs and crows. Nobody shot at hawks or even rabbits, because we weren't supposed to except during hunting season.
Society has become feminized....not me, I still shoot the little bastards.

#19 it was common to see a boy with a 22 walking along, sometimes going hunting, and sometimes just going to shoot.

It still is, in the country. Just nobody lives there anymore. Everybody lives in sub-urbs like MV where people are so dense there'd be weekly deaths if kids shot like they used to and kids time is so strictly structured that they can't just hang around.

#20 The bounty for Ground Hog ears in Illinois in the 1960's was $ .50 per pair. I suppose they'd lock you up today for shooting one.
