"I swear, I had NOTHING to do with this!"

In San Francisco's Richmond District, a couple was attacked they say by a pack of raccoons and if it weren't for a neighbor who came to their rescue, they believe they might have been seriously injured.
Many neighbors in the area say they don't like going out after 11 p.m., not because they worry about getting mugged, but because they worry about a confrontation with raccoons.
Patty Upsavs says she and her husband went out Monday night to let their dog get one last walk and that's when a raccoon pounced.
"So I started swinging the dog around trying to get it off," Upsavs said.
Then a pack of raccoons attacked.
"And then I got another one on my other leg. And so at this point, I'm in the middle of the street and I look up to see, 'Where is my husband? How come he's not helping?' And I look and he's throwing... raccoons are just jumping on him," Upsavs said.

If only humankind had invented a tool that solves this sort of problem . . . .
Hope they got the shots. Sound rabid.
Shoot, shovel, shut up.

A pack of raccoons is properly termed a “gaze”, not a pack.
I’ve never heard of packs of raccoons attacking people. They’ve lost their fear, due to people being too tolerant of their foraging and possibly even feeding them, that or they’re rabid. They need to get rid of them. Yes, they can be cute, but they can do serious damage and can be mean, too.
That shoes how our of control this group of raccoons is. They don’t even use the proper terminology.
Ban raccoons.
Amish raccoons...?
The Apocalypse is coming: It’ll be the showdown for control of SF’s streets between the homeless and the raccoons.
“So I started swinging the dog around trying to get it off,”
So the poor Doggie was used as a weapon against those Black Eye Racoon.

They’re going to have to choose which species is MORE protected: raccoons or bums.
“Warriors, come out and play!”
What you do is go out and offer the raccoons some Spaghetti-Os. When they are busy slurping down that “Neat round spaghetti you can eat with a spoon”, you shiv ‘em with an ice pick.
Shouldn’t raccoons feel free to be lawless in a sanctuary city?
Great Zappa album.
