Pets or meat… or..?

In his film Roger & Me, Michael Moore covered the plight of Rhonda Britten, a poverty-stricken resident of Flint, Michigan. This poor dentally challenged woman easily looked 15 years more than her chronological age. Britten raised rabbits in her back yard to earn money, post the closure of General Motors’ plants in Flint- and the export of the GM jobs to Matamoros, Mexico.

Britten’s now legendary line, when Mike asked to buy a rabbit, was "…pets or meat?" Mike asked for meat, so Britten bludgeoned, gutted and skinned a rabbit on the spot. Talk about fresh!

However, there’s apparently a third option aside from "pets or meat."

Brendan Francis McMahon, 36, of Edward Street, North Sydney, appeared on 12 August before Central Local Court Magistrate Allan Moore and was charged with bestiality, having allegedly had sexual contact with a rabbit on 1 August. McMahon is also suspected to be responsible for the deaths of 17 rabbits and a guinea pig over the past three weeks. The investigation began after dead and dying rabbits with genital mutilations were turning up in an inner Sydney laneway.

Kinda gives a whole new meaning to warm & fuzzy.

The police were hopping mad over the incident. But he wasn’t the only one guilty of bestiality with a rabbit. Remember “Who framed Roger Rabbit?” Jessica Rabbit presumably committed bestiality.

HOPPING mad, I tell ya! 😀 Good one, Ray. 😀

However, I doubt Jessica Rabbit would be prosecuted; she’s not bad, she’s just drawn that way.

I think that cartoon of Elmer Fudd marrying the cross-dressing Bugs has irrevocably damaged the moral fiber of modernday Americans.

I like simply being silly – the extreme anthropomorphic Furry stuff completely repels me.

Wasn’t Furry fandom something that was featured on Las Vegas (TV show) a few months back. That really got my hare standing on end. Those paw people who get involved. Gives Easter a whole new meaning.
