I miss Alligator shoes. They looked great and lasted forever.

[ThomasMore]

We need to train alligators, crocks and pythons that liberal meat, progressive meat and democrat party meat are a delicacy. :)

Perhaps a certain aroused FWC bureaucrat can be dropped into an area where gators feed. Charging a guy protecting his horses. Like the old lady who beat a hawk with her purse and broke its wing after it grabbed her Chihuahua and was charged. As I remember the charges were dropped cause the prosecutor didn’t think he could find a jury to convict.

[BigEdLB]

Yes, and it is sold commercially in stores. Tastes different, but has the texture of fish.

The petitioner of the arrest warrant is much more dangerous than the alligator. He/she needs to be fired. I would guess a law officer took the tail piece, and proudly displays it in his man-cave at home.

After OLDSmaj post, I am wrong about display in a man-cave. The cops ate it at a get together. And laughed their asses off.

Second Call Defense would have taken care of this guy.

And that would be because the evidence (missing piece of the tail) had been digested?

[Ancesthntr]

Yup.

Many people have yet to realize that government is their enemy, particularly if you are a white male exercising common sense.

Can’t wait to be part of the push back in November - I want my country back!!!!!

We have bounties on wolves in Alberta.

Same totalitarian thugs who put an old man in prison for selling an orchid:

Me too. They were not wear today and throw away tomorrow like most stuff these days.

If there's an animal like an alligator or a bear trying to kill you I don't think "shoo" is going to work

I guess that wouldn't be " a reasonable alternative" then.

No kidding. You should tell the author. Oh, wait, you just did.
