#1 It sounds rather...Biblical.

Hey, you don't suppose DARPA is behind this? Lately, we've seen BigDog and his even bigger brother, Legged Squad Support System. Maybe they have been working on This Little Piggy. Time to go watch Screamers" again!

(good crocodile story at the link, btw)

#4 "The wild pigs, which feast on rubbish outside homes and restaurants"

No food, maybe they'd go away. Ever think of getting rid of the "rubbish outside homes and restaurants"?

Probably not.

(And I doubt this stuff is in industrial dumpsters like we're used to seeing out back of restaurants in the Western world. Can't see 200-lb. pigs climbing into those.)

#5 Can't see 200-lb. pigs climbing into those

Don't know about that Barb. There's a heap of 2 legged pigs round about there too.

#6 No food, maybe they'd go away. Ever think of getting rid of the "rubbish outside homes and restaurants"?

Then where will they get their customers?

#7 Ever think of getting rid of the "rubbish outside homes and restaurants"?

Maybe their constant provoking of India is a plan to "get rid of the rubbish".

#8 Well, think of all the food they could get. Wait.... Never mind.

#9 Begs the question - in the land of the pure how does one dispose of a bagged pig? Or is that what the slaves are for?

#10 If it was DARPA, we can but hope that the pigs are all conditioned to respond to Muezzin calls as "feeding time at the mosque! The pigs who get their first get the most!"

They could even be trained to savagely bite dummies on the floor to make their food come faster.

Imagine the hilarity as they just started to pray when a hundred, hundred-pound pigs came tearing through, biting everyone they met.
