#1 "Maybe when they’re confronted by their own children’s hurt looks, fur-wearers’ cold hearts will melt."

OTOH, maybe they'll beat the living shit out of the PETA jerk who's handing out the fliers.

#2 You have to admit, the children will be sobbing and confused when the authorities take daddy away for beating the sh*t out of that hairy woman.

#3 I have visions of the sugar plum fairy beating the sh*t out of granola girl (with a metric truncheon).

#4 Aren't there laws against distributing violent materials to minors?

Oh, and you can't make up stuff like this:

``The Nutcracker’’ is playing at the Wang Center

#5 We had a chicken yard, and fried chicken on Sundays. Head on the stump and a whack with the hatchet,

My granny just snagged 'em by the neck and did a weird left/right matrix-like move. She was especially hell on roosters who got feistey with her... she'd kill those for the cats.
I always listened very closely to anything she had to say to me.

#6 Sometimes Dad wrung their necks. I don't think he thought I was coordinated enough to do it at age eight.

#7 We would lop of the heads of chickens too. Then toss them out into the yard where they would flop around - one made it all the way to the rabbit pens before realizing it was dead (kind of like certain political parties I know....).

Plucking them was a bother. But that ole rooster sure made a damn good chicken soup! (too tough for anything else).

#8 My granny just snagged 'em by the neck and did a weird left/right matrix-like move.
Shipman, I think we could use someone with your granny's skills to 'explain' to the PETAidiots that it ain't nice to terrorize little kids.

#9 My wife wouldn't hurt a fly. However, she would kick the shit out of some asshole who told her kids she was a murderer. I hope Ingrid's handing out the flyers the night she goes this year. Or is that a job for the "little people"?

#10 "Your Mommy Kills Animals’’
"No, my mommy would never do that. It must be my dad you're thinking of. His name is Tony, Tony Soprano. He kills everybody, hey daddy, over here, this lady says mommy is a killer. Where'd she go..."

#11 Seems to me that targeting children in this manner is nothing less than harassment of minors. It's kids that should be heeding the words of their parents instead of the other way around.

That having been said, why aren't childrens' advocates up in arms over this kind of manipulation??

#12 Screams "T-shirt!" doesn't it?

How about:

#13 Nannie chopped the head off the chicken with my grandfather's axe, then flung it up under a galvanized bucket. (Small back yard,& she didn't want it running around ruining her flower bed.) My brother and I used to fight over whose turn it was to sit on the bucket until the chicken died. (But of course he never helped pluck the chicken - that was women's work.)

That was 50 years ago. I still remember the smell of scalded chicken feathers.

Wonder what scalded PETA idiot smells like?

#14 This is gold! Classic, perhaps?

#15 Guess I'm gonna have to get out my best number three axehandle and start attending Nutcracker productions.

#16 Animal rights advocates will single out small children...

Wow, they're taking a page right out of the 80's anti-nukers' handbook.

#17 This happened in Mass. What a suprise.

#18 If I had a child, I would get out my old Davy Crockett coonskin cap--teach him the words to the old tv show and have him sing it at the top of his lungs if one of those freaks even looked his way.

#19 My #2 son would look at the woman and say "No. *I* killed the squirrel. My mommy skinned it, cooked it, and I ate it. I love my mommy."

Bagged two of the critters Thanksgiving weekend. My wife has the photos to prove it.

And I deliberately encouraged it and supervised it to spite and irritate sanctimonious bitches like Franzetta.
