Damn close. One thing folks who don’t or have never lived in FL, if there’s water, there could be gators. They were a nuisance out at the space center.

Sounds like the prosecutor has some bigger agenda when it comes to this particular defendant.

One more good example of a need for suppressors...

Alligators shouldn’t be protected any longer. They are plentiful and no longer threatened.

Citizens really need to demand their legislators to legalize flogging for state attorneys who waste taxpayers’ money on such frivolous prosecution.

A man should be able to protect his family, livestock and property without reservation against dangerous creatures.

Bushnell is NOT Tampa. Not really near Tampa. That would be like calling Austin, Dallas.

Even after reading the entire article, it is not clear WHICH state is being referred to. Typical, sloppy journalism. Apparently, I gather from exploring the “local news” website, this happened in Florida. Maybe that should be Flori-duh.

“S S and S”

Yes, but when you are in the hospital with a broken neck and alligator bites all over your leg, it’s bound to pique the curiosity of a few people as to exactly what transpired...people DO have a tendency to be rather nosy...;)

How do they find out when someone kills an alligator?

Where he messed up was admitting to the shooting before the son was attacked. Always claim the attack was first and the shooting was a last resort.
