Mutiny over the Bounty 0
In the West Chester, Pa., Daily Local, Wile E. Coyote speaks out about efforts by a Pennsylvania state representative to establish a bounty on coyotes. A nugget:
It’s a valid concern, but seriously, anyone who can’t tell a coyote from a cat really shouldn’t be armed.*
It almost makes you think that the Legislature is beholden to the roadrunner lobby.
But that’s OK. We coyotes have a powerful lobby on our side too, one that depends on our patronage for its business success, a corporation that has made good coin over the years serving the coyote community’s catapult and rocket skate needs.
You think the Acme Company is going to sit back and let this happen?
