Beating the opossum, is that what the kids are calling it today?

Leftist insanity this man was deluged with hate mail for killing a pest which was attacking his pets. So they arrested him because these idiots have been raised to believe killing an animal is worse than putting a dad in prison.

I really hate this crap. I hope he gets a million dollars and kills some more possums for good measure. Cook em up too, possum pie.

an opossum attacking his bulldogs in his backyard.

If this is real (and not a South Park "he's coming right at us" defense), then my first though would be that the opossum was rabid. They may hiss a little when disturbed, but opossums generally retreat from any threat.

Earlier it was pig slapping.
 
Now they're beating possums.
 
What's next?

Didn’t Pee Wee Herman get arrested for beating his pet possum?

Lorenzo Oliver called Anaheim police about an opossum attacking his bulldogs in his backyard.

A possum attacked his bulldogs? Yeah, sure it did.

Agreed.

Rabid, or maybe infected or snakebit.

Hopefully he’ll get enough to force Anaheim to cut police.
