Wild Boar Smashes Through Clothing Store Ceiling
New York Post ^ | 5/10

Talk about a consumer culture gone wild.

A Hong Kong shopping mall received a visit from a ham-fisted customer on Sunday when a wild boar wandered in and got trapped inside a children’s clothing store.

Video aired by local TV stations showed the boar, which had apparently climbed up a ladder in the shop’s back room, punching a hole through the showroom’s false ceiling with a hoof.

They always said the ceiling was usually the weakest part of any room. What worries me is that the pig knew this.

I read about a wild boar smashing through a ceiling, and I presumed it was about Hillary’s run for president.

There are actually a group of bleeding hearts that think shooting these animals is bad.
If they owned land and seen the devastation they can inflict, they’d change their tune.
I hate them. Shoot on sight. Keep what you can and take the rest to food banks/food charities.

I wonder if this is the wild boar those guys were hunting when they shot that lady working in her rice paddy? Smart porker indeed! Going for clothes to aid in his deceptions.

“News reports said the animal was a 25-kilogram (55-pound), meter-long (3-foot-long) juvenile female.”

I think it was not a boar:

It was a young sow.

Folks in New York don’t know a thing about bacon on the hoof.

A real wild boar would have left mangled bodies to mark it's charge for the door.

That was just a stray pig.
