Donkey Testifies In Court (no kidding!)

So, just as I got done with the other donkey story I find yet another one. Consider this a special Two for Tuesday burro special. So what is it that makes donkeys the target of a litigious society? If it’s in Dallas, Tx, then it’s all about the noise.

(The star witness paced outside the courthouse Wednesday, breathing hard, his head down, an American flag bandanna around his neck.

Buddy the donkey, led by Etienne Grimmett, walked ahead of owner Gregory Shamoun on the way to court Wednesday.

He said nothing to the media swarming around him. He just twitched his huge ears and swatted flies with his tail.

People had accused him of all sorts of things: He was loud. He was aggressive.

He smelled bad, too.)

It saddens me to think about the state of reporting in this country. Sure the first four sentences report the scene, but was that last sentence, questioning Buddy’s hygiene, really necessary? (con't @ http://boknowsonline.com/2008/05/20/taking-the-fifth/)
