It’s kind of bothersome that Brandon Smith failed to mention Fred the Raccoon, but he was going for larger implications of the tragedy. From Smith at alt-market.us:
What is evil? For the average person it’s a difficult concept to explain but most of us know it when we see it. Every once in a while there’s an event which strikes the collective consciousness in such a way that it becomes deeply symbolic. Sometimes these events symbolize ultimate good, and sometimes they symbolize ultimate evil. The public is affected by these things in ways they didn’t expect and might not even comprehend, but they are archetypal and profound nonetheless.
In the wake of Donald Trumps election victory and the jubilant celebration some people might overlook one of these recent events; the state assassination of a man’s pet squirrel and the national anger that followed. Why does the death of a squirrel matter? It’s not only about the squirrel, it’s about the context and what it means for our civilization at large.
In a progressive controlled state (New York), Mark Longo ran a legal animal sanctuary for abandoned and injured animals. He promoted the sanctuary on social media with videos featuring his long time pet, Peanut the Squirrel. Longo rescued Peanut after his mother was killed in an accident and he raised the animal for seven years.
LMFAO! Love the cowboy hat, what a wretched hive of scum and villainy in NY.
I would claim emotional support animal and violation of civil rights and sue the shit out of them.
There was the case in the glorious peoples republic of MI of a whole farm being put down due to no permits.
Permits? We don’t need any stinking permits.
Red State really cracked down on reptiles after some people got zapped by venomous animals and the bravo sierra rabies horseshit excuse in NY, of course they didn’t have rabies as they were domesticated. (derp)
A squirrel and chipmunk come up on the porch and are wildly entertaining along with the birds who all start chattering at once after a bread feast.
Those who harm animals are just warming up to move on to harming people.
