muff528 3 #2 June 9, 2011 QuoteWeasel Man with dead weasel accused of assault. I was thinking that the headline writer may have screwed up until that last line brought it all together. (Also, I'm betting that there's more to this story than what was written.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If someone is pointing an unloaded gun at me, how can I tell?

You point a weasel at me and there's gonna be repercussions. If you're pointing his face towards me, I'm gonna be laughing because the discharge end is pointing back at YOU.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

ECVZZ 0 #14 June 9, 2011 Did I read that right? SF has a ballot initiative to criminalize the circumcision of dead Weasels??? Would the penalty be greater for using a circumcised dead Weasel in an assault? Who would be granted enforcement authority; ASPCA or PETA??? This could get messy. G.

ECVZZ 0 #17 June 9, 2011 Quote"It's not a weasel, it's a marten," He was simply defending the deceased marten's honor. So it was a deceased Weasel named Marten? Was he circumcised?? If so, will there be a "Hate crime" enhancement on the original charges? G. Jones "I've never been quarantined. But the more I look around, the more I think it might not be a bad idea."

lurch 0 #23 June 10, 2011 Ok this is just a total win. I cannot imagine how I would handle this. "What the fuck...?

Gravitymaster 0 #24 June 11, 2011 Update-It was a Mink not a weasel or a marten. QuoteFAMOUS ASSAULT PROP NOT A MARTEN June 9, 2011KXRO Newsradio The 33-year-old suspect in an assault that made national news by holding a dead marten while striking a man in the face is no naturalist. Hoquiam Police Chief Jeff Myers says the weasel like animal the man was holding during Monday night’s assault was actually a mink, also a member of the weasel family. Myers says the Department of Fish and Wildlife reports that Martens have not been seen in the Grays Harbor area for 50 to 60 years. The suspect adamantly claimed the animal he was carrying was a marten, going as far as to correct arresting officers when they called it a weasel. http://kxro.wordpress.com/2011/06/09/famous-assault-prop-not-a-marten/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
