Pig Attack – Revisited
This is sort of a randomly assigned association in my terribly fogged up mind this afternoon, but that’s OK. It’s MY blog, and I can be weird from time to time.
So with that in mind, and in light of some really good ethics and animal cruelty discussion over at Tovar’s blog, my eye was caught by this report of a very different kind of animal cruelty, perpetrated of course not by hunters, but by theme park employees.
From the AP:
Police said authorities at Six Flags Great America ejected two off-duty employees from the theme park after they allegedly attacked a female colleague dressed as “Porky Pig.” Gurnee Police Sgt.

OK, so that’s a pretty goofy story and has nothing to do with the content of this blog. I really just used it as an excuse to direct ya’ll over to Tovar’s for this great conversation.
Wacky! Thanks for the mention, Phillip.

That is some serious animal cruelty right there:)
And that is one heck of a discussion going on over at Tovar’s blog.
